Kevin Jones: Draft Profile

This guy pretty much put the team on his back and attempted to carry it. He had a terrific season but his team was not the best and ended up finsihing their season in the first round of the tournament. Back to Jones. He averaged a double double in every game he played with 20.1 points per game and 11.1 rebounds per game. He did not win the Big East player of the year but he did have one of the best seasons out of the big men. He has had 19 games with ata least 20 points and 21 games with 10 or more rebounds. Of course just by looking at that you will find that he was able to reach quite a few double doubles over the season. He is projected to go very early in the second round to the Washington Wizards. Considering that he is in NBA shape and can be a dominant force under the boards I think that he will be drafted in the late first round to the Cleveland Cavaliers. After taking the number one overall pick last year, point guard Kyrie Irving, Kevin Jones will be the man for him to get the ball to. Irving is developing into a great young player but could need someone to pass the ball to because he is pretty lonely out there in Cleveland. I believe that Jones can make a nice transition into the NBA after having for years of college ball under his belt. Kevin Jones is a great player and hopefuly goes to a team that needs him.
