After another loss on Monday night to the New Orleans Pelicans, the Dallas Mavericks fell to 9-22 on the season. The Mavericks decided to add some scoring punch the next morning by turning to their D-League affiliate, the Texas Legends.
The former Baylor Bear has spent his last ten games playing for the Texas Legends where he has been regarded as the top D-League prospect in the league. He has averaged 29 points, 6 assists, and 4 rebounds a game in Frisco.
The athletic, scoring guard comes into the Mavericks on a partial guaranteed two-year deal. With the 10-day contract period just around the corner, it looks as if the Mavericks didn’t want Jackson to get away as they beat everyone to the punch.
