The Mavericks have requested waivers on Pierre Jackson

The Dallas Mavericks have requested waivers on Pierre Jackson according to a press from the team.

Jackson, a 5-foot-10 point guard, was called up from the Texas Legends on December 27. In the D-League, he was a proven scorer, averaging 29.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 1.9 steals and 35.7 minutes per game with the Legends.

Since joining the Mavericks, Jackson posted averages of three points on 21.4 percent shooting and 1.8 assists in seven minutes per game.
