Streeter Lecka/Getty Images(NEW YORK) — After winning a national championship with the Duke Blue Devils, freshman point guard Tyus Jones is one and done.
Jones announced Wednesday that he will enter the NBA draft. He will follow Duke players Jahlil Okafor and Justice Winslow, who stated their decision to enter the NBA last week.
Many NBA experts feel that Jones is a late first round to early second round pick.
