Chris Jones Jr. Chris Jones Jr. 6'3" | SG Pasadena Memorial | 2025 State TX was one of the best marksmen I was able to watch this season in the city of Houston and will continue to play an efficient role as a sharpshooter at the collegiate level. I once compared his off-ball movement to Stephen Curry as he continuously moves on the offensive end to get open and picks his spots on the floor well. His fundamental defense is key on the perimeter as he is able to play passing lanes and key in on opposing ballhandlers.
