One down, two to go. The Spurs waived C Dwayne Jones today. They have two more roster cuts to make before the season starts. I'm a little curious about the timing on this. He was with the Toros last year and I expected he would be with them again this year. Cutting him two weeks before it is necessary makes me think he may have some interest in him by another team, maybe in Europe.
