Last season, David Jones was a key player for DePaul. Now, the high-scoring wing is part of the enemy, filling a major role for St. John’s.
“I was surprised. Obviously, he had a great season last year,” DePaul senior center Nick Ongenda said on. “Just seeing him leave, it was really a shock to all of us.”
“He can be amazing,” St. John’s center Joel Soriano, Jones’ close friend and a significant part of his decision to come to Queens, said. “He’s a big key into what we want to do here. His presence is definitely going to make a difference.”Corey Sipkin There will naturally be comparisons to Champagnie, since Jones will be playing the same position and has a similar skill set as a wing capable of scoring inside and out. But Anderson has made a point of telling Jones they don’t need him to replicate Champagnie’s 19.2 scoring average of last year. He doesn’t have to be the guy on offense for the Red Storm.
With DePaul, picked to finish last by the Big East coaches, Jones clearly would have been the most talented player, after leading scorer Javon Freeman-Liberty made the move to the professional ranks. But Jones wasn’t interested in staying in Chicago. He liked the idea of playing in Anderson’s uptempo system with two pass-first point guards, Curbelo and Posh Alexander, and joining Soriano.
