Colby Jones

Postby Kevin Reilly » Sat Mar 04, 2023 1:30 pm

Colby Jones should be at the least a 1st team All Big East selection. Colby is averaging 15 points a game and 5 rebounds a game and 4.6 assists. He is easily one of the best if not the best defensive player in the Big East. I have no doubt if he goes pro he will be a 10 year NBA player. However I think he should come back next year and be a All American. I think he could easily average 3-5 points more next year. Boum is gone and probably Nunge and maybe Freemantle too. That should be about 3-4 more shots a game for Jones. A lot depends who comes back for Xavier...... but if at least one of Freemantle or Nunge comes back that would help us be a ranked team which we need to be if we are having a All American on our team. If we beat a high ranked team early in the year that would help too. Not sure if being a All American is important to Jones but I think that would help him and us. Anyways this has been a great year and one we all were waiting for. Hoping for a good Big East run and making some noise in the tournament. Kick Butler's butt today and go X

No chance. He will be a top 20 pick and make some very good coinage as a system player in the NBA. He does everything well above average except for free throw shooting and has added a Josh Hart-like extended post move to his game.
