Tre Jones is a young point guard who is currently in his fourth season with the San Antonio Spurs. Jones was born in Apple Valley, Minnesota, and played high school basketball at Apple Valley High School. He was a highly touted recruit coming out of high school, ranked as a five-star prospect and the #2 point guard of the 2018 recruiting class.
Jones committed to play college basketball at Duke University under legendary coach Mike Krzyzewski. He made an immediate impact as a freshman in the 2018/2019 season, averaging 9.4 points, 5.3 assists, and 3.8 rebounds per game in his freshman season.
Jones was named ACC Freshman of the Year and was also named to the ACC All-Defensive team for his tenacious perimeter defense. In second season, Jones improved his numbers to 16.2 points per game and was named ACC Player of the Year.
After two stellar seasons at Duke, Jones declared for the 2020 NBA Draft and was selected by the San Antonio Spurs with the 41st overall pick. He played sparingly as a rookie but earned more minutes in his second season. Now in his fourth NBA season, Jones has carved out an important role with the Spurs as a defensive-minded floor general.
Through the first nine games of the 2023/2024 season, Jones is averaging 8.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game on 43% shooting. He continues to be a menace on defense, regularly guarding the opposing team's best perimeter scorer.
Tre Jones 3-Point Field Goals Per Game
As of November 2023, Tre Jones makes 0.3 3-point field goals per game. He is currently shooting 26.9% from deep. While known primarily for his defensive skills and playmaking ability, one area where Tre Jones has room for improvement is his outside shooting.
This season, Jones has looked a bit more willing to hoist it from long range. Through nine games in the ongoing season, he is making 0.6 shots from deep. Becoming a more consistent triple threat would make Jones an even trickier cover and give the Spurs offense another dimension.
