Jones Still Wants Out

Hooped Up | December 28, 2007

Damon Jones’ displeasure over his removal from the Cavs rotation is continuing to simmer. Jones told the Palm Beach Post for Wednesday’s editions that he wants to be traded to the Miami Heat, where he was very successful in the 2004-05 season. When Brown called for him to be sent into the blowout Tuesday with 57 seconds to play, he flatly declined. After that move, it wouldn’t be surprising if Jones was deactivated in upcoming games. Jones is second on the team in 3-point shooting at 38 percent. He publicly asked for a trade at the beginning of the season.
