Former Stony Brook big man Jameel Warney went undrafted on Thursday night but will play summer league with the Dallas Mavericks, he told SNY.tv.
Dallas will compete in the Orlando Summer League July 2-8.
The 6-foot-8 Plainfield, N.J., native averaged 19.8 points and 10.8 rebounds as a senior while leading the Seawolves to their first NCAA Tournament appearance where they lost to Kentucky.
He went for 44 points in the America East title win over Vermont and then scored 23 points in the Kentucky loss.
He then worked out for Boston, Milwaukee, Washington, Atlanta and Dallas.
“All the teams I worked out with told my agent my strengths are really good and they see improvement in the weaknesses,” Warney told Newsday. “They always talk about my motor and how relentless I am on the glass. They can see how hard a worker I am.”
The news was first reported by Mike Scotto of SheridanHoops.com.
