Real Madrid have officially announced the signing of Damian Jones through the end of the 2026-27 season. The 30-year-old American center, a two-time NBA champion with the Golden State Warriors, joins the Spanish capital as one of Pedro Martinez's frontcourt additions.
Madrid have confirmed the deal with a big man arriving after winning the Puerto Rican league title with Vaqueros de Bayamon. It will be his first experience in Europe. The information was reported by Eurohoops and Gigantes del Basket.
Context of the signing
Jones has logged 293 NBA games with the Warriors, Hawks, Kings, Suns, Lakers, Jazz and Cavaliers. He won championships with Golden State in 2017 and 2018 before later stints in China and Puerto Rico brought him back into the international spotlight.
For Real Madrid, the move strengthens the interior rotation on a roster entering a new era under Pedro Martinez. Jones brings size around the rim, high-level experience and a profile that can complement Tavares and the rest of Madrid's frontcourt in EuroLeague and Liga Endesa play.
