Jones scored 15 points on the night, seven of those coming in overtime. Jones knocked down a big step-back three, a pair of free throws and the game-sealing dunk in the closing seconds. Jones also added an assist and a rebound, doing all of it in just 16 minutes.
Jones joins former high school teammate Miles Bridges, who finished with 21 points and seven rebounds in the Spartans’ loss to Arizona.
