Jones was the backup to Dan Spence until his 18 year old season, and I am also a little surprised nobody took him with a late pick after his 45-5-4 year. Yeah, the ungodly play of the Hitmen in 08-09 made him look better than he is, but he made them look better too.
He should have been eligible for the 2010 draft as well, but the Kings were able to sign him via a loophole in the CBA because they invited him to their 2009 camp as an undrafted player. Hell of a bargain for them.
As an aside, statistically, Kozun isn't doing too bad in Manchester either. 18 points in 30 games.
