South Bay Lakers’ Mason Jones wins G League Player of the Month

Los Angeles Lakers two-way player Mason Jones won the G League Player of the Month for January.

South Bay Lakers guard Mason Jones won the G League Player of the Month for January, the league announced Tuesday.

Jones, who is on a two-way contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, put up some ridiculous numbers throughout the course of the month that definitely warranted recognition.

The 6-foot-4 guard posted 28 points, 8.8 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 1.6 steals while shooting 51.7% from the field. He has been doing it all for South Bay, which currently has a 6-3 record in the Western Conference. That is tied with the Iowa Wolves for second place in the standings.

Jones appeared in two games for Los Angeles in late December while the team had several players out due to health and safety protocols but has not played since.
