Lakers Sign Tevian Jones, Waive Jarron Cumberland

The guard is expected to be on an Exhibit 10 deal to compete for Los Angeles’ open two-way spot.

Overview

  • Los Angeles added 6'7" guard Tevian Jones on a training-camp contract with terms not disclosed but presumed to be Exhibit 10.
  • The Lakers waived Jarron Cumberland one day after signing him, following Thursday’s move that saw Arthur Kaluma waived.
  • An Exhibit 10 allows a camp invitee to be converted to a two-way during preseason or to join South Bay with a bonus if waived.
  • The club still has one two-way slot open, with Christian Koloko and Chris Mañon occupying the other two.
  • Jones averaged 15.6 points with the G League’s Grand Rapids Gold last season after five collegiate seasons at Illinois and Southern Utah.
