DALLAS - The Dallas Mavericks announced today they have signed guard/forward Theo Pinson to a two-way contract after having previously signed him to consecutive 10-day contracts under the COVID-related hardship allowance. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Pinson (6-5, 212) signed his first 10-day on Dec. 20 and has averaged 2.5 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 9.3 minutes in 10 games. He recorded seven points, four rebounds, three assists, a career-high four steals and one block in his Mavericks debut against Minnesota on Dec. 21.
