bball-ref.com has him listed as PF, no mention of him playing SF.

I think you can play him where you want him. In Football Mocks, there are guys drafting(and winning) with undersized 3T 's playing NT and 3-4 end. Bobby Jones subbed in as a SF

Not sure how that would work for this draft. But the fact Jones never played the 3 spot I'd have to question if he ends up there & not his natural 4 spot. And I could see playing Jones @ the 3 for this draft if he at least played that spot on the floor for one year.

Yeah, I found some places reference him as a SF but they were all articles... Actual listings have it as PF or just F... But I remember him playing SF except when he and Dr J were in together... Just wanted to play by the rules as management has position specifics...:noidea:
