Zoye Jones Zoye Jones 5'11" | PG Murphy Hugh School | 2027 State AL plays the game with intent and authority, dictating terms rather than reacting to them. At 16 points, 5.8 assists, and 4.3 steals per game, she balances scoring and control, consistently bending the defense before making the right decision. Her size allows her to initiate contact downhill, finish through bodies, and still see the floor clearly. Jones is most dangerous when she’s probing — forcing rotations, finding shooters, or sealing smaller guards inside. Defensively, she uses anticipation and strength to disrupt ball handlers and jump passing lanes without gambling. When the game tightens, Jones is the type of guard who settles everyone down while still applying pressure.

When one sees “six feet” or “near six feet” on a scouting report, many coaches will assume “power forward” or “traditional big.” Jones is a 5-foot-11 guard that can give a team near pinpoint accuracy from behind the 3-point line. She already presents the build of a collegiate athlete with the ability to put points on the scoreboard from all three levels along with adding length and defense to her overall skillset. Jones connected on three 3-pointers in an entertaining contest between her OMG Academy 16U team and its Now Elite 16U adversaries and continued her sharpshooting prowess in a rout of Net Rippers 16U. 

Early on in OMG Academy 16U’s competitive contest with Now Elite 16U, Jones looked to establish herself from 3-point range. That confidence she had in her long-range shooting would lead to a 13-point performance for the standout from 6A Murphy. In that game, OMG Academy 16U as a team drained three 3-pointers – all three were courtesy of Jones. She is also a familiar name to this year’s Prep Girls Hoops Circuit. Back at the Roll Tide Rumble in early April, Jones was part of our 16U Third Team.
