JJ made the move to New York last season after playing with the Connecticut Sun and was a huge reason why the Liberty made their way to the league finals. Her biggest asset is her ability to corral rebounds, in addition to being an MVP-level player (she won the award in 2021). She has been nursing a foot injury for a few seasons now, but if she is in tip-top shape, Wherever she goes will be getting a player who can be relied on heavily.
While she does not have a core designation, Jones has expressed wanting to stay in New York. If she doesn’t stick around with the Liberty, a team that could really use her size and talents are the Washington Mystics or the Phoenix Mercury, who had the two worst rebounding percentages in the league last year, according to the WNBA’s site. A Mercury move could put Jones on the same roster as Diana Taurasi, which would instantly improve their offensive struggles.
