Meet Mrs. Jones, She gives a new meaning to the song, but she really does have a thing going on. Jones’ ascent to the top of her class has been steady, an improvement over the past three years that could be described as subtle. Yet Jones’ game is explosive, electric, and dynamic. Whether it’s grabbing an offensive rebound and finishing over multiple taller defenders, driving by smaller ones for a layup, or leaping over them all to finish an alley-oop, Jones has harnessed her athleticism into what could be the game’s most dominant force in the class of 2022/2023.
Jones is a dominating low-post performer with imposing size who patrols the lane, alters and blocks shots, initiates the fast break; and can take it coast-to-coast and finish with left, or right hand. She has a strong interior game with hands that catch and finish plays in traffic; a post prospect with off-the-charts potential. She is a must-have in the class of 2023 and definitely a must-see.
