Ozell "Hoppy" Jones III (November 20, 1960 – September 7, 2006) was a professional basketball player. He was listed at 6 ft 11 in (2.11 m) and weighed 235 lbs. Born in St. Paul, Minnesota, his family soon moved to Compton, California and later to Long Beach, California so he can play high school basketball at Long Beach Polytechnic. Jones first played collegiate ball with the Wichita State University (1979–1981) and helped the Shockers reach the Elite 8 in his second year. He later transferred to Cal State Fullerton to play for the Titans in 1982-1984. He entered the 1984 NBA Draft and was chosen in the fourth round (90th pick overall) by the San Antonio Spurs.[1] On October 24, 1985, Jones was waived by the Spurs. He later signed as a free agent with the Los Angeles Clippers on March 31, 1986 but played in only three games.
