We’re all eager for the start of the 2016-17 NBA season. While we wait, here are milestones to look for Cleveland Cavaliers veteran James Jones this season.

Last year was an incredible season for the Cleveland Cavaliers. They had their ups and downs, from Kyrie Irving and Iman Shumpert‘s injuries to chemistry issues later on in the regular season and a 3-1 deficit in the Finals.

Despite the rocky road, the Cavs came out on top. They united and prevailed, giving the franchise its first ever NBA championship and giving Cleveland its first major sports title in 52 years.

As a veteran and a leader, James Jones is extremely important to the team and he’s up next. At the age of 35 and with 13 seasons in the NBA, Jones has several milestones to keep an eye out for.
