Dahntay Jones played only three minutes for the Cavaliers on Monday night, but made them count. Late in Game 1 of East Conference semis Jones dunked on Toronto’s Norman Powell, then taunted him. That earned Jones two technicals and an ejection, worth $3,000 per tech. But Jones, signed on the last day of the regular season, is only making $9,127 in salary, the league minimum.

The Cavs won 116-105, so what Jones was doing dunking and fussing with 18.
