New Mexico State's 6'5" Senior Jemerrio Jones Is A Rebounding Machine

Jemerrio Jones is an anomaly. The 6’5” senior from New Mexico State is not a scoring guard. And he doesn’t look like someone who plays with power—he’s a lean 195 pounds. But he’s playing with the big guys, that’s for sure.

Jones is averaging 12.7 rebounds, second-most in the country. He’s the only guy under 6’6” in the top-20. He’s ahead of Marvin Bagley III, Deandre Ayton and Mohamed Bamba. (Interestingly, many of the 6’5” guards who are in the top 100 of the rebounding chart are all in mid-major schools.)

Jones is a rebounding savant.
