Once detained Wenban Yama! The 24-year-old "GOAT" took himself to Türkiye

I have read some statistics before, saying that the average duration of NBA players is about 4 years, and those who can persist in playing in the NBA for more than 4 years are the number one figures who can gain a foothold.

It is true. In addition to so many stars and role players, there are so many "dream chasers" who sign unsecured contracts every year. They come and go in and out of the NBA, forming the current NBA ecosystem.

But unexpectedly, someone happened to be stuck in his NBA life and lost the opportunity to stay in the NBA. He is today's protagonist, Kay Jones.

Kay Jones is a very interesting person. He was selected by the Hornets at the 19th pick in the first round at the 2021 NBA Draft. He was unknown in the first two seasons of his career. The only thing that attracts attention is his explosive physical fitness.

Seeing that his superstar's dream was difficult to realize, Kai Jones decided to take the wrong path and take advantage of the traffic!

First of all, in the 2023 NBA Summer League, Kay Jones had the opportunity to face Vinban Yama, and he got a shocking dunk and became famous in one game.

At this point, Kay Jones took advantage of the popularity and quickly made a big remark, saying that he was a GOAT, and claimed that he could beat Jordan and O'Neal in his peak period.

No doubt, most people think Kay Jones is a lunatic and a clown. But more people began to notice Kay Jones, paying attention to his dynamics, hoping to hear more of his explosive remarks for entertainment.

The Hornets didn't want to be with Kai Jones. They thought the boy was crazy and asked him to shut up, but Kai Jones applied for a deal, so the Hornets cut him directly.

For a year, "GOAT" could not find a job, and updated its social media accounts in various ways, either sing or showing crazy appearance, and finally got the Clippers' two-way contract in 2024.

Kay Jones played 28 regular season games for the Clippers, averaging only 2.2 points, 1.6 rebounds, 0.4 assists and 0.5 blocks per game, but his shooting percentage reached 75%. There is no problem as a purely pie insider.

In March 2025, Kay Jones bid farewell to the Clippers and turned to the Mavericks, who were short of soldiers, and made 9 of 10 shots and scored 21 points, 9 rebounds and 1 block.

played in the last 12 regular season games last season with the Mavericks. Kay Jones started 6 times, averaging 11.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 blocks per game. The shooting percentages of the three events were 83.6%, 33.3% and 70%, which was indeed OK.

Therefore, Kay Jones emphasized again in an interview that he always thought he could do everything, "just lacked an opportunity."

But his bad temper and mediocre basketball IQ still made the Mavericks give up Kay Jones, who could only try out everywhere this summer and once had four consecutive days of trials at the Heat.

But at this time the problem is: Kay Jones has been in the NBA for 4 years. According to the current labor-management agreement, he cannot sign a two-way contract. The Heat are reluctant to give Kay Jones a guaranteed contract, so he still did not leave him behind.

was stuck in his NBA years, and Kay Jones was also considered a GOAT on another level.

In desperation, Kay Jones turned his attention overseas, and his agent found a job in Türkiye, and he was also a powerful team in the Champions League level Effith Men's Basketball Team.

It turns out that Effith's core insider, Frenchman Poirier, was injured and is expected to return in January next year. Kay Jones is here to make up for the loophole. His 211 cm height and 217 cm wingspan are probably very good in the European arena.

In addition, the contract between Kay Jones and Effith men's basketball team includes "the contract can be jumped out of the contract and returned to the NBA after January next year", and it is obvious that it has to wait for Poirier to return to leave.

is only 24 years old, and Kai Jones has made himself to Türkiye, which is also another GOAT legend.
