Facilitator role fits for Jones

OXFORD, Miss. -- Ole Miss held University of Arkansas guard Mason Jones almost seven points below his scoring average, but the 6-5 junior found other ways to hurt the Rebels -- primarily with his passing.

Jones, who scored 13 points after coming into the game averaging 19.8, had a career-high 9 assists as well as 6 rebounds and 3 steals to help the Razorbacks beat the Rebels 76-72 on Saturday at The Pavilion.

Six of Jones' assists came on three-point baskets by Isaiah Joe, who led the Razorbacks with 34 points and was 7 of 13 from beyond the arc.
