The Dallas Mavericks are making roster adjustments as they prepare to sign center Kai Jones to a two-way contract, pending waivers. Jones, who previously played for the Los Angeles Clippers, averaged 2.2 points and 1.6 rebounds across 28 games this season. His addition comes at a critical time as Moses Brown's 10-day contract is set to expire following the Mavericks' game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Kai Jones, the 19th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, has had a tumultuous career thus far. After being drafted by the New York Knicks and traded to the Charlotte Hornets, he played a total of 67 games over two seasons before being waived. His experience and size could provide the Mavericks with some much-needed depth in the frontcourt, particularly given the current challenges facing their center roster.
