Alston Jones brought steadiness and efficiency to NCCU’s backcourt
In the 2017-18 season, North Carolina Central guard Alston Jones played a low-usage, high-efficiency role: 23 games, 13.7 minutes per game, 45.2% shooting, 75.0% from three, 84.0% at the line, and 2.0 assists per game[1][3]. He wasn’t a volume scorer, but he looked like a reliable connector who could make the simple play, space the floor, and keep an offense humming. If a team wants a composed, fundamentally sound guard who can handle a bench spark role and avoid wasting possessions, Jones fits that mold[1][3][9].
