Jones, who only earned $9k after signing a veteran minimum deal on the final day of the regular season, will be fined $6k for the ejection.
Dahntay Jones made $9,000 from Cavs this season. He just got fined $6,000 for 2 techs and an ejection.

Thankfully for Jones, his millionaire teammate LeBron James is going to pay the fine for him.
