SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -A day after hitting the game-winning shot against the Cleveland Cavaliers, rookie guard Sundiata Gaines of the Utah Jazz has signed a second 10-day contract.
Gaines’ first career 3-pointer beat the buzzer Thursday night and lifted the Jazz over the Cavs, 97-96.
Gaines was signed just last week to a 10-day contract. Thursday’s game was only his fifth in the NBA.

Gaines had 9 points Thursday against the Cavs.
Before being signed by the Jazz, Gaines was averaging 23.9 points in 14 games with the NBA D-League’s Idaho Stampede.
