The Dallas Mavericks brought back a familiar face this summer. Antonius Cleveland signed on a two-way contract in Nov. 2017. After 13 games played, the Mavs waived him in Dec. 2017. The 25-year-old saw time with the Atlanta Hawks and the Chicago Bulls before getting another shot with Dallas in the 2019 Las Vegas Summer League.
Cleveland took advantage of that chance. Over the five games, he averaged 16.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 2.4 steals, and 1.0 block in 24.9 minutes per game. Cleveland stood out on both ends of the floor. He shot 56.
