\"\"July 22: The Spurs are signing Summer League standout David Jones-Garcia<\/a>\u00a0to a two-way contract, ESPN\u2019s Shams Charania tweets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jones-Garcia earned<\/a> All-Summer First Team honors playing for San Antonio. The 6\u20196\u2033 wing finished an eight-game summer campaign with averages of 22.0 points, 5.9 rebounds and 3.4 assists per contest. He posted averages of 21.6 PPG, 6.2 RPG and 3.8 APG while shooting 52.9% from 3-point range during a handful of games in Vegas.<\/p>\n

Jones-Garcia recently turned down<\/a> a three-year offer from Olympiacos and let all other European suitors know he was committed to continuing his NBA career. He\u2019ll now focus on trying to earn a promotion to a standard NBA contract.<\/p>\n

After going undrafted out of Memphis in 2024, Jones-Garcia signed a two-way contract with Philadelphia last July but was waived in September. He also spent about a month-and-a-half on a two-way contract with the Jazz prior to being\u00a0released<\/a>\u00a0on January 1.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old didn\u2019t appear in any NBA games with Utah last season. However, he was one of the top performers in the G League, finishing as the runner-up<\/a>\u00a0in voting for NBAGL Rookie of the Year.<\/p>\n

Jones-Garcia, who is from the Dominican Republic, was also named<\/a> to the All-California Classic Summer League team earlier this month after averaging 22.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.3 steals.<\/p>\n

San Antonio hadn\u2019t filled any of its tw0-way slots, so the team will still have two more openings when Jones-Garcia signs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"July 23: Jones-Garcia has officially signed his two-way contract with the Spurs, the team announced today in a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":16989,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,18200,575,85],"class_list":["post-16988","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-david-jones-garcia","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16988","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16988"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16988\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16989"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16988"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16988"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16988"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
