Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Colby Jones began his basketball career playing for Pinson Valley High School in Pinson, Alabama, before transferring to Mountain Brook High School for his junior year. There, he played alongside Portland Trail Blazers forward Trendan Watford and was named the 2020 Alabama Class 7A Player of the Year. Jones then committed to play for Xavier as a four-star recruit. He was named to the 2020-21 Big East All-Freshman Team. In his sophomore year, he was awarded the NIT Most Outstanding Player after leading the Musketeers to win it all. In Jones' most recent season in 2022-23, the junior forward averaged 15.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.3 steals across 36 games on 50.9 percent shooting from the field and 37.8 percent from three. Jones' strong campaign helped him earn All-Big East Second Team honors. Jones has the size to play either shooting guard or small forward at the next level. He excels at scoring in transition but has also developed into a quality spot-up shooter. He can handle the ball in the pick-and-roll while being a willing and capable passer. Defensively, Jones has active hands that help him create turnovers at a high rate. Jones can be a quality bench option right away in the NBA while having the potential to develop into a regular starter. His play style is reminiscent of Caleb Martin and Cedi Osman, as he has two-way capability at both the guard and forward spots. Jones can play in an off-ball role as a spot-up shooter and cutter while also being able to create for his teammates as a secondary playmaker.

Big defensive showing Sunday
GSacramento Kings
April 8, 2024
Jones registered seven points (3-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists, two blocks and three steals in 23 minutes during Sunday's 107-77 win over Brooklyn.
ANALYSIS
The 23 minutes were a career high for the 21-year-old rookie, and Jones used the extra court time to display some impressive defensive chops. The 2023 second-round pick out of Xavier could be carving out a consistent role in the backcourt rotation, especially with Harrison Barnes' minutes shrinking and long-term injuries to Kevin Huerter (shoulder) and Malik Monk (knee).
