Jones Selected AAC Player of the Week
Dec 12, 2022 | Women's Basketball
NEW ORLEANS – Tulane University Women's Basketball graduate guard and New Orleans native Dynah Jones was named the American Athletic Conference Player of the Week on Monday by the league office. This marks her second AAC Weekly Honor this season and the second time she has been selected Player of the Week in her career.
Jones earned the honor after helping the Green Wave go 2-0 last week. She averaged 17.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.5 steals in those two games. The New Orleans product shot 56.0 percent from the floor and sank five three-pointers.
The week began with a career-high in minutes for the graduate guard as she played 41 minutes in the Green Wave's double-overtime 103-100 win on the road against Troy on Wednesday. Jones posted 18 points on 8-of-14 shooting with a pair of made threes against the Trojans. She also tallied three steals, a pair of rebounds and an assist against Troy. Jones followed that performance by scoring a game-high 17 points and hitting three from downtown in a 67-52 win at home over Southern. She tacked on four rebounds and a pair of assists to her stat sheet as well.
The Green Wave will host three programs for the Tulane Holiday Tournament next Tuesday and Wednesday, December 20-21. Tulane will face Saint Francis to open the tournament at noon on Tuesday. The Wave will then play either Tennessee Tech or VCU on Wednesday.
