Expert Analysis
Michael Roth | Prep Hoops Scout
Jones is one of the scrappiest defenders in the CMAC, getting at least two steals in every game this season. Jones aggressiveness on the defensive end of the court caused numerous turnovers and Hughes was at their best in the open court. Also a capable perimeter shooter, Jones is shooting almost 30% from 3-point range and over 65% from the free throw line. Look for Jones and Hill to be the engines for Hughes this winter as they’ll look to stay competitive in the CMAC.

A warrior defensively, few players pressure the ball as well as Jones does. At his size, Jones is always going to be low to the ground and in the grill of opposing ball handlers. Jones forced numerous turnovers and usually either he or a teammate turned them into buckets on the other end. I was also impressed with how Jones scored at the rim, he had some acrobatic finishes around rim protectors. Add on a couple 8-12 foot mid-range shots and floaters, Jones was productive on Sunday in helping his team win.
