Dahntay Jones

Jones spent the bulk of the 2015-16 campaign with the D-League's Grand Rapids Drive before inking a contract with the Cavaliers one day before the regular season concluded. With the Cavs having already clinched the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference by that point, coach Tyronn Lue rested nearly all his rotation players in the finale, enabling Jones to log 42 minutes for an undermanned roster. Jones would see his playing time dry up almost completely during the team's run to its first NBA title, but he played a pivotal role in the Cavs' Game 6 win. With about 90 seconds remaining in the first half, Jones entered the contest and scored five unanswered points while drawing two crucial fouls on the Warriors' Draymond Green to boost the Cavs' lead to 16 at halftime. Despite those heroics, Jones was waived in the summer before his contract for 2016-17 became guaranteed, but the Cavs ultimately re-signed him to a non-guaranteed deal prior to the start of training camp. He'll have to compete with a number of players for the 15th spot on the roster and will likely be out of the rotation most nights if he makes the team.
