The Sacramento Kings make another singing in undrafted free agency with Washington State's Isaac Jones.
out of Louisiana Tech, the Kings make another move on the undrafted free agent market by picking up Jones. The 24-year-old big man played three years of JUCO ball before heading to Idaho, then ending up at Washington State for his final year.
In his two years playing D1, Jones averaged 17.2 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks per game while shooting 62.2 percent from the field. The 6-foot-9 forward has a 7-foot-3 wingspan, and he uses his length to be an effective scorer inside and versatile defender. Isaac Jones has one of the most unique paths among this year’s NBA Draft class. He was cut from his 8th-grade team, didn’t play AAU basketball, and worked as a truck loader after high school before landing at Wenatchee Valley CC.At the next level, Jones will be effective in the pick-and-roll game, with his size and finishing being his strengths. On defense, Jones can guard the basket and get out and defend the perimeter at times.
While Jones is not an exceptional prospect, especially as an undersized center at the next level, he has the tools to improve his game with time in the G League. His size, footwork, hustle, and defensive versatility make him a signing worth keeping an eye on.
