Adams agreed to a contract Monday with Greek club Promitheas Patras on a one-year contract, Christos Harpidis of TotalBasket.gr reports.
After being released from his two-way deal with the Bucks earlier this month, Adams has elected to find work overseas rather than waiting for another opportunity to emerge as the NBA level. With a strong showing in Greece over the next couple months, Adams could generate renewed interest from NBA teams in the summer, when he'll be a free agent once again. Prior to getting cut by Milwaukee, Adams appeared in seven games, averaging 0.3 points and 0.4 rebounds in 2.6 minutes.

Bucks' Jaylen Adams: Cited on disorderly contact
Rotowire
Adams, who has been sidelined for the Bucks' past two games due to the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, was arrested Friday and released by Milwaukee police after being cited for disorderly conduct, WISN 12 News Milwaukee reports.
According to the report, Adams' citation stemmed from an incident that occurred Thursday, when the 24-year-old was involved in an altercation with an Uber driver. The Bucks released a statement Saturday indicating that they are aware of the incident, but at this time, Adams' status doesn't look as though it will be affected. Once he clears the health and safety protocol, the two-way player should be able to resume his normal role as a depth point guard for the Bucks.

Bucks' Jaylen Adams: Plays during garbage time
Rotowire
Adams played the final 37 seconds of Friday's 129-115 loss to the Jazz, recording no statistics.
After appearing in only one of the Bucks' first 20 games of the season, Adams has now seen the court in five of the past six contests. He's only seen garbage-time minutes in each of those games, however, as Adams merely looks to be the team's third-string point guard behind Donte DiVincenzo and D.J. Augustin while Jrue Holiday (COVID-19) is out. Once Holiday is back to full strength, Adams -- a two-way player -- could be assigned to the G League bubble in Orlando.

Bucks' Jaylen Adams: Signs two-way deal with Bucks
Rotowire
Adams signed a two-way contract with the Bucks on Saturday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Adams last saw NBA action with the Hawks in 2018-19, when he averaged 3.2 points, 1.9 assists and 1.8 rebounds in 12.6 minutes per game.

Trail Blazers' Jaylen Adams: Expected to play Tuesday
Rotowire
The Trail Blazers list Adams (back) as probable for Tuesday's game against the Rockets.
Adams hasn't appeared in either of the Trail Blazers' first two seeding games in Orlando, but he likely wouldn't be included in coach Terry Stotts' rotation even if his lower-back injury wasn't a concern. The second-year point guard should dress Tuesday, though he's unlikely to see run if the contest if fairly competitive.

Adams hasn't seen the floor since Feb. 15, when he scored 15 points in 6-of-12 shooting in a win over the Swarm. The Herd have not revealed anything related to an injury, but that's the only reasonable explanation since he is averaging 21.8 points per game this season.

Jaylen Adams: Waived by Bucks
Rotowire
Adams was waived by the Bucks on Monday, Clevis Murray of The Athletic reports.
Adams failed to make the Bucks final roster after seeing limited run in the preseason. The second-year pro, who averaged 3.2 points, 1.9 assists and 1.8 rebounds for Atlanta last year, could entertain a number of offers from various teams in need of backcourt play, though he could ultimately end up in the G-League or overseas depending on the amount of interest.
