He's jumping! And shooting.
Rodrigue Beaubois has been cleared to begin taking jump shots and showed off at Mavericks practice this morning. His three-point shot was good enough to beat Dominique Jones and DeShawen Stevenson in a little competition.
Beaubois told me on a Mavericks pre-game show in November that he had hoped to be back around the first of the year but now admits it's going to be a while longer.
"I don't know," he said "I still need more time."
How important was being able to jump, finally?
"It's big because I've been on the floor so long. Now I can go up. It's a first step. Now the conditioning part is going to be hard because I can feel that I am getting tired very quickly."
Beaubois was scheduled to see a team doctor today to track his progress.
