Former Providence forward Jamier Jones has committed to Missouri out of the NCAA Transfer Portal. The 6’6, 220-pound wing was a Big East All-Freshman Team selection this season after averaging 11. 9 points, 4.
5 rebounds and 1. 4 assists per game for the Friars. But Jones, a Florida native, opted to enter the portal after head coach Kim English was fired and replaced by USF’s Bryan Hodgson.
He was quickly connected to the Tigers, who hired former Providence assistant Tim Fuller as the team’s general manager last offseason. Missouri hosted him for an official visit over the weekend of April 12, and now has locked in one of the top available forwards in the portal. Jones shot an impressive 57% from the field in his lone year with the Friars, also knocking down 39% of his 3-pointers — albeit only on 31 attempts.
