The Mavericks have signed shooting guard/small forward Eddie Jones to a two year contract. The Mavericks value Jones’ combination of outside shooting and perimeter defense off of the bench so he should fit right in. Jones played in 64 games (41 starts) last season for the Heat & Grizzlies and he averaged 24.9 minutes, 7.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.1 steals per game. He shot decent too as he hit 42.2% from the floor, 35.1% from the three point line and 78.7% from the free throw line.

Jones has had a very productive career in the NBA. He has played in 907 games (869 starts) and he has averaged 15.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.8 steals per game. Jones has been a good outside shooter his whole career as he has hit 43.8% of his shots from the floor, 37.5% from three point range and 80.9% from the free throw line. Adding Jones was a smart move by the Mavericks.

The Mavericks have signed power forward Brandon Bass to a 2-year contract. Bass played in 21 games (3 starts) last season for the Hornets and he averaged 7.7 minutes, 2.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 0.1 assists per game.

The Mavericks have re-signed reserve guard/forward Devean George to a 1-year, $2.5 million dollar contract. This was a good move for the Mavericks as he George played decent for them last season. He played in 60 games (17 starts) for the Mavericks and he averaged 21.4 minutes, 6.4 points, 3.6 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game. He didn’t shoot especially well last season as he hit 39.5% from the floor, 35.3% from three point range and 75% from the free throw line.

George has been a backup pretty much his whole NBA career. He has played in 489 games (83 starts) and he has averaged 19.2 minutes, 6.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game. He has hit 39.3% from the floor, 34.2% from three point range and 72.1% from the free throw line over his career.

The Mavericks have acquired forward Reyshawn Terry from the Orlando Magic for center Milovan Rakovic. Terry could be a better basketball player than he was at North Carolina so the Mavericks are hoping they can bring out the best in him. Terry has nice size at 6′8″, 232 pounds but he needs to get tougher. Terry played in 126 games at North Carolina and he averaged 7.3 points, 3.5 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.5 assists per game. He is a good shooter though as he hit 48.5% from the floor, 41.9% from three point range and 75% from the free throw line.
