Former Purdue guard Lance Jones will have a pre-draft workout with the NBA's Indiana Pacers on Tuesday, June 4. Jones spent one season with the Boilermakers, averaging 11.7 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game.
Former Purdue guard Lance Jones has an opportunity to prove he belongs in the NBA. Friday, the Indiana Pacers revealed that the former Boilermaker is one of six players invited to a pre-draft prospect workout.
Jones played an important role during Purdue's run to the National Championship Game during the 2023-24 season. The fifth-year senior and transfer from Southern Illinois provided a major spark of athleticism, speed and defensive awareness the Boilermakers needed. Jones scored 24 points in a 99-67 win over Michigan. In his next outing, he struggled mightily, scoring just four points in a 68-60 road win over Rutgers. But the senior guard had no trouble finding the bucket in his next two games.
