Playing career


Jones was drafted by the National Basketball Association's (NBA) Baltimore Bullets in 1967.[1] Jones was also drafted by the New Orleans Buccaneers in the 1967 ABA Draft.[1]

Since he was not a number one draft choice in the NBA, he began his professional career in the rival ABA where he was a number one draft choice, playing seven seasons for the New Orleans Buccaneers/Memphis Pros and Utah Stars. Though largely forgotten today, Jones was one of the ABA's best players, averaging 19.2 points, 5.1 assists, and 4.9 rebounds during his seven years in that league. Jones finally joined the Bullets franchise in 1974, appearing in three seasons before retiring in 1977.
