Overview
- The team announced Wednesday that Dillon Jones has signed a two-way deal after strong play with the Rip City Remix.
- Jones averaged 16.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, 7.6 assists, and 1.8 steals in 24 G League games for Portland’s affiliate.
- He takes the two-way slot opened by Tosan Evbuomwan’s waiver, joining Kevin McCullar Jr. and Trey Jemison, and he can be active for up to 24 regular-season NBA games.
- The 2024 No. 26 pick won a championship with the Thunder in 2025 before being traded to Washington in a salary move and waived before this season.
- He is expected to split time with Westchester and have a limited NBA role initially, reflecting the Knicks’ effort to mine G League value during a recent slide.
