Heat bring back F James Jones
Basketball Betting Lines
07/19/2010 -
Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Miami Heat made it official on Monday by re-
signing forward James Jones.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but The Miami Herald previously
reported that Jones' deal was for the veteran minimum and that the forward
spurned larger offers, including a reported $6 million deal with the Spurs,
for a chance to return to the new-look Heat.
"We are happy to bring back James Jones, whose abilities on and off the court
epitomize what the Heat organization stands for, said Heat President Pat
Riley. "He is a consummate professional and a proven three-point threat that
will help stretch the floor. As our roster fills out, his ability to shoot the
ball will be a valuable asset to our team."
Miami requested waivers on the seven-year veteran in June, buying out the
final three years of his previous contract to make him a free agent.
Jones provides another outside shooting threat on a roster being stacked with
veterans and rookies alongside LeBron James, Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade.
Over his last two years in Miami, Jones appeared in 76 games, making seven
starts and posted averages of 4.1 points and 1.4 rebounds in 14.9 minutes of
action. He shot 36.6 percent from the floor and 37.6 percent from beyond the
arc.
Over 366 games, including 65 starts, Jones has averaged 6.4 points and 2.4
rebounds while shooting 39.5 percent from three-point range. He has also
logged stints with Indiana, Phoenix and Portland.
