Damon Darron Jones (born August 25 1976 in Galveston, Texas) nicknamed DJ is a professional basketball player currently with the Cleveland Cavaliers of the National Basketball Association.

A 6' 3" point guard-shooting guard, he played collegiately for three years at the University of Houston but went unselected during the 1998 NBA Draft.

Professional career

After averaging a career high 11.7 points a game for the Miami Heat during the 2004-05 season, Jones departed to sign a four-year contract with the Cavaliers on September 7, 2005. A journeyman throughout his career, Jones has never played for the same team for more than one season. In his career, he has played for 10 different teams.

Jones is most notable for his ability to make three-point field goals. In fact, three-point attempts make up the majority of his field goal attempts because his role is often to wait on the outside while teammates Shaquille O'Neal, Dwyane Wade or LeBron James force double teams. Jones is supremely confident of his shot, once proclaiming that he is "the best shooter in the world".

He is known to love attention and often relishes post-game press conferences when most players would rather just leave the arena. Jones is known to talk a lot of trash while playing on the court. He is also known for his "karate kicks" when he's dribbling the ball.
