INJURIES

Waived by Los Angeles The Lakers waived Kelley on Sunday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Impact Kelley joined the Lakers on an Exhibit 10 contract in August, and although he will be waived, Los Angeles will retain his G League rights. Kelley appeared in 11 games during the 2024-25 campaign between the Mavericks and Pelicans, where he averaged 3.1 points and 3.5 rebounds in 11.5 minutes per contest.
SEPTEMBER 29 • ROTOWIRE
Inks deal with Los Angeles Kelley agreed to a training camp contract with the Lakers on Monday, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Impact Kelley will compete for a spot on the Lakers' regular-season roster during training camp. The big man appeared in 11 regular-season outings (two starts) between the Mavericks and Pelicans last season, averaging 3.1 points and 3.5 rebounds across 11.5 minutes per game. The Oregon State product spent most of the 2024-25 campaign with the G League's South Bay Lakers, during which he averaged 11.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, 2.4 blocks and 1.5 assists across 26.7 minutes per game in 32 outings.
AUGUST 26 • ROTOWIRE
Grabs five boards in finale Kelley ended Sunday's 115-100 loss to the Thunder with three points (1-1 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block in 15 minutes.
Impact Kelley received limited playing time during his third appearance with the Pelicans, averaging 3.3 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 19.7 minutes per contest in that three-game span. The big man ended the campaign by signing two 10-day deals with New Orleans, though he also spent time with Dallas on a two-way contract before being waived in March. Kelley began the season with the G League's South Bay Lakers and will likely seek a two-way deal ahead of the 2025-26 season. The undrafted rookie finished the 2024-25 campaign with averages of 3.1 points, 3.5 rebounds and 0.5 assists across 11.5 minutes per game in 11 regular-season appearances with New Orleans and Dallas.
APRIL 14 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Kelley made two appearances under his first 10-day deal, averaging 3.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 22.0 minutes. He'll be available for the regular-season finale after signing another deal, but he's not in the starting lineup after starting Friday 153-104 loss to Miami.

Signs second 10-day contract Kelley signed a second 10-day contract with the Pelicans on Sunday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Impact Kelley made two appearances under his first 10-day deal, averaging 3.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 22.0 minutes.

APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE
Reaches free agency Kelley became a free agent Saturday after his 10-day contract with the Pelicans expired.
Impact After inking his 10-day deal on April 3, Kelley appeared in two games for New Orleans, averaging 3.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 22.0 minutes. New Orleans would have to re-sign Kelley to a rest-of-season contract prior to Sunday's game against the Thunder in order to make him eligible to play in the finale. If the Pelicans don't re-sign Kelley or bring aboard another player to fill the open roster spot, they would have just seven players available.
APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE
Starting Friday Kelley is in the Pelicans' starting lineup against the Heat on Friday.
Impact Kelley will make his first start with the Pelicans (and second of his NBA career) as New Orleans deals with multiple injuries to its big-man rotation. He made his Pelicans debut Thursday after signing a 10-day contract April 3, and he finished with two points, seven rebounds and one assist over 23 minutes in a loss to the Bucks.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Joins New Orleans Kelley and the Pelicans agreed to a 10-day contract Thursday, according to NBA reporter Marc Stein.

Mavericks sign Kai Jones as latest fill-in for injured big men

The Dallas Mavericks have signed Kai Jones to a two-way contract as they continue to deal with injuries to multiple big men
MARCH 4 • Associated Press
Waived by Dallas The Mavericks waived Kelley on Sunday, Sam Amico of HoopsWire.com reports.
Impact The big man was waived from his two-way pact in order to make room for Kai Jones. Kelley didn't play in the club's last three consecutive contests due to a coach's decision, and he averaged 3.0 points and 2.6 rebounds across 8.4 minutes per game in eight outings (one start) with the Mavericks.
MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE
Slides to bench Tuesday Kelley is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the 76ers, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Impact After making a spot start in Sunday's game against the Cavaliers, Kelley is expectedly heading back to the Mavericks' bench Wednesday with the team much healthier. The undrafted rookie has averaged 3.0 rebounds, 2.5 points and 0.5 blocks in 7.8 minutes across two games from Dallas' second unit this year, so it's not a lock that he'll see the floor against Philadelphia.
FEBRUARY 4 • ROTOWIRE
Making first career start Kelley will start Sunday's game against the Cavaliers, Mavericks radio play-by-play broadcaster Chuck Cooperstein reports.
Impact With Anthony Davis (abdomen) not ready to make his Dallas debut and P.J. Washington (knee), Daniel Gafford (ankle) and Dereck Lively (ankle) all sidelined as well, Kelley will make his first career start and face off against a formidable frontcourt of Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley. In 16 total minutes this season, Kelley has posted five points, five rebounds and a block. The only available backups behind Kelley and Olivier-Maxence Propser are Naji Marshall and Kessler Edwards.
FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Gets two-way deal Kelley signed a two-way contract with the Mavericks on Sunday.
Impact Since going undrafted out of Oregon State in 2020, Kelley has yet to make his NBA debut, but he could get the chance to do so in the near future with the Mavericks, who are without centers Dereck Lively (ankle) and Maxi Kleber (foot) due to long-term injuries. Dwight Powell (hip) will also remain out for Monday's game against the Wizards, so Kelley could enter the rotation right away as a backup to Daniel Gafford. Over his 23 appearances in the G League this season with the South Bay Lakers, the seven-footer averaged 11.0 points (on 67.5 percent shooting from the field), 7.2 rebounds, 2.4 blocks and 1.7 assists in 27.6 minutes per game.
JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE
Let go by Lakers The Lakers waived Kelley on Friday.
Impact Kelley was a long shot to make the roster out of training camp, and the Lakers have decided to cut him loose on the final day of the preseason. He's expected to start the 2024-25 season in the G League with the South Bay Lakers.
