Cleveland Cavaliers 'sign veteran James Jones'

The Cleveland Cavaliers have signed veteran shooting guard James Jones, according to a report.

The 33-year-old was available on the free-agent market after his contract with the Miami Heat came to an end following six years with the club.

Jones has signed a one-year deal with the Cavaliers worth $1.4m (£817,000) and will now link up with former teammate LeBron James in Cleveland, reports the Akron Beacon Journal.

The guard averaged 4.9 points per game for the Heat last season.
