Former Miami Hurricanes Star James Jones in 7th Straight NBA Finals

Although not a huge contributor, Jones has cemented his place in NBA History amongst the greats who have gone to consecutive NBA Finals. He and James seven straight finals trips put them in a four-way tie for fifth for the most consecutive finals appearances ever.

The most Jones has averaged in a season was 9.3 points per game. That came in his third season in the NBA with the Phoenix Suns. Jones broke into the NBA with the Indiana Pacers. He was the Pacers second round pick, 20th overall in the 2003 NBA Draft.
