Drafted by the Lakers in 1994 upon leaving Temple, Eddie Jones will establish himself as one of the most complete but also underrated backs in the NBA.
Hyper spectacular, good defender, and above all a very talented interceptor (the best in the league in 2000), he was an All-Star three times in a row, between 1997 and 2000 and he always shone in this very special match.
Subsequently, he will meet Shaquille O’Neal in Miami in 2005 after a stopover in Charlotte. He will end his career in Dallas in 2008, after 954 NBA matches for more than decent averages: 14.8 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1.7 interceptions per game.
Here is a compilation of his best dunks to pay tribute to a player who, unfortunately, never won a title. Always traded in the wrong place, at the wrong time…
