Wisconsin Herd: Dominating the glass no tall task for undersized Jemerrio Jones

Standing at 6’5″ in shoes and coming in at a lanky 175lbs, Jemerrio Jones stands as something of an oddity for the Wisconsin Herd.

The Herd have looked to Jones to act as their full-time, starting center when they don’t have Bucks big man Dragan Bender on assignment up in Oshkosh. With the Herd’s regular starting lineup topping out with two-way player Cameron Reynolds standing as the tallest player at 6’8,” one would only think that their size would be a significant weakness.

Yet Jones, even at his smallish stature, has thrived in such a role where his workman-like mentality and scrappy tendencies collide, leading to his fingerprints being all over the Herd’s success so far this campaign.
