A 6'8" forward from Albany State University, Jones was drafted in the fifth round of the 1969 NBA Draft by the Los Angeles Lakers and by the Miami Floridians in the 1969 ABA Draft. Jones played seven seasons in the ABA. In his ABA/NBA career, he tallied 8,482 total points, 5,560 total rebounds and 1,446 total assists. On the left front tail is the “Sand-Knit” manufacturer’s tag with wash instructions and size “44”. Across the front is “MIAMI”. Player number “14’ appears on both the front and back. All numbers and letters are done in light blue on white tackle twill. Player name “JONES” appears across the back in light blue tackle twill. The sides have been taken in. The jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion, shows outstanding use. Accompanied by a LOA from Wil Jones. Also included is a pair of matching stirrup socks. This is the first of this style that we have ever handled. Other than what is mentioned, there appear to be no further alterations of any kind.
