07/13/2010 -
Dallas, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Dallas Mavericks signed Dominique Jones on
Tuesday. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The 6-foot-4, 215-pound guard was originally drafted by the Memphis Grizzlies
with the 25th overall pick in this year's draft. Dallas, though, acquired his
rights from Memphis for cash considerations in a draft day trade.
In three years at South Florida, Jones ranked fifth in career scoring (1,797
points), first in free throws attempted (615), and fifth in both field goals
made (592) and attempted (1,339).
As a junior, he was named First Team All-Big East after averaging 21.4 points,
6.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.7 steals per game. He was also an honorable
mention All-American and a finalist for both the Wooden Award and Naismith
Award that same season.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
