Spurs sign Summer League standout to a two-way deal

The Spurs are signing Summer League standout David Jones-Garcia to a two-way contract, ESPNs Shams Charania tweets .

Jones-Garcia earned All-Summer First Team honors playing for San Antonio.

Jones-Garcia finished an eight-game summer campaign with averages of 22 points, 5.9 rebounds and 3.4 assists.

He posted averages of 21.6 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists while shooting 52.9% from 3-point range during a handful of games in Vegas.

He recently turned down a three-year offer from Olympiacos and let all other European suitors know he was committed to continuing his NBA career.

Jones-Garcia will now focus on trying to earn a promotion to a standard NBA contract.

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 released on Jan.

The 23-year-old wing didnt appear in any NBA games with Utah last season.

However, he was one of the top performers in the G League, finishing runner-up in voting for NBAGL Rookie of the Year.

Jones-Garcia, who is from the Dominican Republic, was also named 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.

San Antonio hadnt filled any of its two-way slots so it will still have two more openings when Jones-Garcia signs.
