Damian Jones graduates from Vanderbilt University

Graduation season is well underway and Sacramento Kings center Damian Jones has become the latest in the NBA brotherhood to graduate from college, receiving his Bachelors of Science from Vanderbilt University’s School of Engineering this past weekend.

Jones attended Vanderbilt from 2013-2016, garnering All-SEC honors in his second and third year on the men’s basketball team. After declaring for the draft in 2016, the junior was drafted to the Golden State Warriors, where he garnered two champion titles alongside the Warriors’ dynasty run.

Since Sacramento signed Jones in 2021, he’s become a reliable force at the center spot, especially in the absence of bigs this past season.
