$Signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Kings in July of 2024.
Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary
Jones doesn't have much experience at the Division I level, but that was because he spent the first three years of his post-high-school career at Wenatchee Valley (Wash.) College. He made the jump from Wenatchee to the Big Sky Conference before the 2022-23 season, where he moved to Idaho, and he was a regular starter for the Vandals while averaging 19.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.1 blocks per game. He jumped to another level before his senior year in 2023-24, transferring to Washington State, where he started all but one of his 35 appearances. At Washington State, Jones averaged 15.3 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.1 blocks per game. He was named to the 2022-23 All-Big Sky Second Team and the 2023-24 All-Pac-12 First Team. The first thing that stands out about Jones is his length because he has a massive 7-foot-3 wingspan despite being listed at 6-foot-8. He also possesses excellent leaping ability and plays much taller than he is, suggesting he might be ready for the NBA's physicality, particularly against power forwards due to his length. Plus, he has the potential to be a decent perimeter defender due to his footwork and above-average acceleration. He's a good on-the-ball defender, but he lacks awareness at times in off-the-ball situations. His offensive game is not as advanced as his defensive game, but he can put up points as a finisher near the rim. His feel for the game and decision-making as a scorer are two major positives in his offensive arsenal. He also can make the extra pass when the situation calls for it. He needs to continue developing his offensive arsenal, but on the surface, his arsenal looks competent enough to keep himself on an NBA floor regularly. Jones has been a player who has improved with each passing season, and that might not change if he makes it to the NBA. He's a capable player on the defensive end with an above-average wingspan, and that should be his calling card at the NBA level. However, his progress and future role will ultimately be decided by how much he progresses on offense.
Shines in G League loss Sunday
CStockton Kings G League (Kings)
December 16, 2024
Jones posted 31 points (12-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 38 minutes Sunday in the G League Stockton Kings' 103-98 loss to the Rip City Remix.
ANALYSIS Though the two-way player had seen action in eight of Sacramento's last nine games, Jones was sent to the G League to pick up some more minutes while the NBA club had a break in its schedule. Through four appearances with Stockton on the season, the big man has racked up two double-doubles and three 20-plus-point outings. He'll likely be back with Sacramento for Monday's game against the Nuggets and should fill a backup role in the frontcourt.

ANALYSIS The Warriors are looking at options since they have the 52nd overall pick in this year's draft, and Jones profiles as a player worth taking a flyer on in the final stages of the second round. Jones spent the first three seasons of his college career at Wenatchee Valley College, but he played for Washington State in the 2023-24 campaign, averaging 15.3 points and 7.6 rebounds per contest.
