Two-way player DaQuan Jeffries has signed a 10-day contract with the New York Knicks, the team announced (via Twitter).
The 25-year-old swingman had been playing for New York’s G League affiliate since agreeing to a two-way deal in late November. He’s averaging 20.6 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 20 games with Westchester.
Jeffries has been trying to find a regular role in the NBA since going undrafted out of Tulsa in 2019. He has appeared in 47 total games with the Sacramento Kings, Houston Rockets and Memphis Grizzlies, and has spent time with the Orlando Magic, San Antonio Spurs and Atlanta Hawks as well. He was in training camp with the Knicks last fall, but was waived before the start of the regular season.
As a fourth-year player, Jeffries will earn $109,318 during his 10-day deal. He will be eligible to sign another one when it ends on March 14.
The Knicks had two roster openings, so they didn’t need to make a corresponding move before signing Jeffries.
