CLEVELAND — Free-agent small forward Richard Jefferson will sign with the Cleveland Cavaliers, ESPN first reported on Tuesday afternoon.

The 14-year NBA veteran has averaged 13.9 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.2 assists over 30.9 minutes per game for the New Jersey Nets (2001-2008), Milwaukee Bucks (2008-2009), San Antonio Spurs (2009-2012), Golden State Warriors (2012-2013), Utah Jazz (2013-2014) and Dallas Mavericks (2014-2015).

In 74 games for the Mavericks last season, the 6-foot-7 Jefferson averaged 5.8 points and 2.5 rebounds over 16.8 minutes of play. It was only the third time in his 14-year run in the NBA where Jefferson did not average double figures in points, but he played more than 14 minutes less per game than over the balance of his career.
