There needs to be a space between "of the prior five years." and "On November 11".
done--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:50, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
Where the article says "over state powerhouses DeLaSalle — featuring Reid Travis — and Hopkins", there should not be spaces around em-dashes.

Abbreviations like "ppg." and "apg." should be spelled out or linked.
done.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:26, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
WP:LEAD:   Done 

Fix First sentence (WP:LEADSENTENCE).
Definition and notability should be in the first sentence (WP:BETTER). I recommend the following revision :
Tyus Jones (born May 10, 1996) is an American basketball player who is ranked among the top 5 players in the national class of 2014 by Rivals.com, Scout.com and ESPN.[1][2][3] He is a  Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL) Class 4A state champion, two-time Minnesota Associated Press Boys Basketball Player of the Year and two-time Minnesota Boys Basketball Gatorade Player of the Year. He is playing his senior season for Apple Valley High School during the 2013–14 season. He has given a verbal commitment to the Duke University men's basketball team as a package with Jahlil Okafor and will be a freshman for the 2014–15 team.
O.K.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:02, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
Fix Length (WP:LEADLENGTH). Lead can be expanded to reflect more information detailed in the body.
WP:LAYOUT:   Done 

Fix Headings and sections (MOS:BODY).
Use a different heading for section Early life. I recommend High school.
Done.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:13, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
To improve the flow of the prose, I recommend removing Heading 4 2013 offseason.

Of the players who played 58 games (the qualifying number for assist statistical leadership) only Tyrese Haliburton had a higher assists:turnover ratio (5.61-4.71). BTW, one of two players above Jones with less than 58 games was brother Tre Jones who had 5.49 in 46 games played per this.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 22:51, 4 July 2025 (UTC)
