Evolution of defender Joevin Jones continues as he paces Seattle Sounders to convincing win over New York Red Bulls

SEATTLE — Seattle Sounders defender Joevin Jones’ performance since the beginning of the 2016 MLS Cup Playoffs has been nothing short of spectacular.

The 25-year-old Trinidadian left back has five assists in his last nine matches dating back to last season, including the game-winner in three of the last five Sounders wins. Whether it was whipping in the cross that led to Clint Dempsey's goal in Houston or beating a player off the dribble today leading to Jordan Morris' game-winner, Jones has displayed his full arsenal to start the 2017 season proving there may not be a single outside midfielder or defender in MLS who can slow him down.
