Tre Jones opting to return to Duke for his sophomore year instead of entering the 2019 NBA Draft was huge for the Blue Devils in more ways than one.
As a freshman, the Apple Valley, Minnesota native averaged 9.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.9 steals per game. Jones was also named to the All-ACC freshman team.
Entering 2019-20, Jones was bound to get preseason recognition and the sophomore was named to the Preseason All-ACC First Team as the Duke Blue Devils were predicted to finish at the top of the conference.
