Propels Cardinals in OT Jones had 25 points (9-18 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 6-8 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals across 44 minutes in Saturday's 80-73 OT victory over Duke.
Impact Even with second-leading scorer David Johnson (12.5 ppg) back in the lineup, Jones still led Louisville in points, field-goal attempts and minutes played. He was particularly effective in overtime, where the senior scored seven of his 25 points -- it's no coincidence the Cardinals outscored Duke 15-8 in the OT period. Jones and the Cardinals moved a step closer to the NCAA Tournament with this win, while also providing a big hit to Duke's hopes.

Scores team-high 18 points Jones had 18 points (7-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, four assists and a steal across 40 minutes in Tuesday's win over Notre Dame.
Impact Jones has scored in double digits in every single game this season and continues to make an impact as the Cardinals' go-to player on offense. He is scoring 17.5 points despite shooting just 40.5 percent from the field and 23.5 percent from three-point range. He clearly needs to improve his shooting figures to make a more consistent impact on offense.
