Erich Fisher of Rivals announced on Twitter that Illinois forward Tevian Jones has been suspended indefinitely from the team for a violation of team academic policies. This is Jones’ second suspension in the two seasons he has been with the program.
Coming out of Culver City High School in California, Jones was rated a four-star recruit. He was wanted by many programs, but Illinois was able to land this talented wing player. Sadly, Jones didn’t get a chance to play a lot as a freshman. His suspension had a lot to do with the lack of playing time.
