Bobby R. Jones
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bobby Ray Jones, Jr. (born January 9, 1984 in Compton, California, U.S.) is an American professional basketball player. After playing collegiately at the University of Washington, he was drafted by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the second round of the 2006 NBA Draft and shortly thereafter traded to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for Philadelphia's 2007 second round draft pick and cash considerations.
As a senior at UW, he averaged 10.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.2 steals, and 0.5 blocks per game. He is a 6'7", 215 pound small forward who is mostly known for his defense, though he is a repectable shooter as well. In a January 12, 2006 game against USC, Jones scored 22 points in an 86-77 win. In that game, Jones went four of eight from behind the three point line. Jones finished his career at UW as the 20th all-time leading scorer in school history with 1,226 points.
