Jones spent 3 years playing center for Vanderbilt. He’s got size at the position that projects well to the NBA. He’s 7’0’’ and weighs 245 LBS. He has a wingspan that measures at 7’3.75’’, and it allows him to function as a solid rim protector.
He boldly proclaimed before this season that he’d enter the draft in 2016, and didn’t back down from that promise.
He averaged 1.6 blocks per game last season at Vanderbilt. He also averaged 13.9 points per game and 6.9 rebounds per game.
A glaring flaw in his offensive game is his lack of free throw shooting ability.
