Leading up to the 2025 NBA Draft, we will track where Marquette Golden Eagles guard Kam Jones appears in the latest NBA mock drafts.

Kam Jones NBA Mock Drafts

Here are some of the latest mock drafts in which Kam Jones has appeared:

For the Win — Bryan Kalbrosky

Round 1, Pick 28 — Boston Celtics

Arguably the most intriguing upperclassman in this class is Kam Jones, who has the most points created in the NCAA this season, per CBB Analytics. Marquette scores 26.6 points per 40 minutes more when Jones is on the floor relative to when he is not, which ranks as the most among all high-major players this year as well.

CBS Sports — Adam Finkelstein

Round 1, Pick 18 — Brooklyn Nets (via MIL)

Jones may be the best guard in college basketball this year and is uniquely qualified to come into a Brooklyn program that could have significant minutes available in the backcourt and crack the rotation as a rookie.

Bleacher Report — Jonathan Wasserman

Round 1, Pick 28 — Boston Celtics

A proven shotmaker and consistently one of the more efficient rim-finishing guards in college hoops, Kam Jones has now taken off this year as a playmaker (6.4 assists).

Being 23 years old by draft night historically impacts draft stock, but it's getting tough to poke holes in a 6'5" combo with 273 career threes, a functional floater game, three consecutive seasons above 65.0 percent around the basket and gradually improving playmaking skills.

The Athletic — Sam Vecenie

Round 1, Pick 19 — Utah Jazz (via MIN)

Jones has stepped wonderfully into the role vacated by Tyler Kolek, running Marquette's offense gloriously. He is averaging 20 points, five rebounds and nearly seven assists per game, but more importantly, he's also doing it while limiting his mistakes. The guard basically only takes good shots, and he turns it over just 1.6 times per game, giving him more than a 4-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio. He's also an elite finisher, with pristine gathers and footwork blended with perfect touch in the painted area. He's making 53.5 percent of his shots in total but also a sparkling 70 percent of his shots at the rim. There will always be some defensive concerns with Jones, but he's answered big questions this year in terms of his ability to run an offense, which gives NBA teams a bit more confidence that he can play next to star players as a point guard who can play both on and off the ball. Jones is also only hitting 34 percent from 3 so far, but don't fret, as that won't last. He's a career 38 percent 3-point shooter on over six attempts per game. There are no worries about his jumper long term.
