Mavs, Walter Clayton Jr. land a two-way deal
The Dallas Mavericks have officially secured Walter Clayton Jr. after recent reports suggested they were the frontrunner in signing the 23-year-old guard.
Clayton Jr. was selected 18th overall in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft by the Washington Wizards before his rights were traded to the Utah Jazz.
He averaged 7.8 points, 4.0 assists, and 2.0 rebounds per game across 69 appearances during his rookie season split between the Utah Jazz and Memphis Grizzlies.
The Grizzlies waived Clayton Jr. on Monday as part of the team’s plans to trim their roster to the regular-season limit of 15 players on standard contracts.
The Mavericks will open their 2026-27 season this Wednesday against the Houston Rockets.
