Colby Jones

Draft Notes

Jones is a solid and fundamentally sound all around basketball player who contributes in every aspect of the game. He won’t be the most sexy pick on draft day but he’s got a chance to develop into a really good role player at the NBA level.

He’s a very heady passer who can play on the ball and orchestrate the offense.

Is an excellent defender who can guard 1 through 3.

Shows promise as a floor spacer but needs to improve in this area.
