He scored in double figures 20 times, with a season-high 27 points against Saint John’s.

Max Jones, a junior guard from Clearwater, Florida, transferred from Cal State Fullerton. He averaged 15.3 points per game and shot 47.1% from the field, earning Second Team All-Big West honors. Jones adds scoring and experience to K-State’s backcourt.
