Duke star Tre Jones told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on Saturday that he will enter the 2020 NBA draft.
Jones was part of a loaded 2018 recruiting class for the Blue Devils that included Zion Williamson, RJ Barrett and Cam Reddish. With Williamson, Barrett and Reddish moving on to the NBA after their freshman season, Jones assumed a larger role in the offense.
The sophomore guard averaged 16.2 points and 6.4 assists while shooting 42.3 percent from the field and 36.1 percent from beyond the arc. His true shooting (52.4) and effective field-goal (47.4) percentages were both increases over 2018-19 as well, per Sports Reference.
