The Milwaukee Bucks have signed Terrence Jones for the rest of the season, according to The Vertical’s Shams Charania. The move will help them make up for the absence of Jabari Parker, who is out for the year with a second torn ACL.

Jones spent 51 games with the Pelicans this season, averaging 11.5 points and 5.9 rebounds in 24.8 minutes until New Orleans traded for DeMarcus Cousins over All-Star weekend. Without a significant role for Jones headed forwards, and unable to find a trade partner for him, the Pelicans waived Jones last week.
Milwaukee will also be without Michael Beasley, who also has a knee injury, meaning Jones should have a significant role for the team over the next few weeks. The Bucks are still entertaining hopes for the playoffs despite their injuries, sitting two games back of the Detroit Pistons for the No. 8 seed.
The 25-year-old Jones, in his fifth year out of the University of Kentucky, spent his first four seasons with the Houston Rockets.
