Former Timberwolves guard faces brutal reality after being waived by new team

It's been a rough season for Tyus Jones. Expectations were fairly high for Jones when he signed with the Orlando Magic this offseason. Unfortunately, he proved to be unplayable, averaging just 3 points on 34.2 percent shooting from the field. Jones was traded twice at the deadline, once to the Charlotte Hornets and later to the Dallas Mavericks, where he played in eight games. On Sunday, Jones was waived by the Mavericks to create a roster spot for two-way standout Ryan Nembhard, and he is now searching for a new home.

To make matters worse, it doesn't look like he has much interest from teams on the buyout market.
