Jones displayed efficient shotmaking inside the arc, bringing in good size at roughly 6’4. Getting more conditioned to pull-up attempts around the mid-range, the wing took advantage of tight angles and limited windows, embracing the challenge for shots at the basket.

3 GP: 20.7 PPG, 6.3 RPG, 1.7 BPG, 70% 2P
Incredibly efficient inside the arc, Jones’ production has skyrocketed since last season with greater volume. Although a small sample size, the guard could be an impressive two-way prospect in due time.

Read EvaluationRobert Davis | Prep Hoops Scout
Jones is a wing that can contribute on both ends of the court and has the capability to drop double-doubles. He has some touch from midrange rising up over defenders to knock down some shots. He is also able to step out from behind the arc and knock down the 3 ball as well, making the defense pay when they leave him open. On the defensive side he has good on-ball defense and is able to stay in front of quicker ball handlers, using his height and coming up with some blocks at times.
