Jones is hearing from a long list of division one schools and has recently taken a pair of visits.
“I took a visit to Western Michigan and Valparaiso, I plan on going to visit NDSU this weekend for their camp,” Jones told Prep Hoops. “I’m also looking to visit Princeton.
“The schools that are talking to me are North Dakota State, South Dakota State, Princeton UC-San Diego, Western Michigan, Valpo, University of Montana, Liberty, VMI, Lehigh, and Appalachian State.”
Western Michigan is a MAC program in Kalamazoo, Michigan and they’ve been in regular contact with Jones. Jones took a recent visit to WMU.
“The visit was good,” Jones said. “The facilities were nice, I liked the locker room. My favorite part was the cafe (Jones said with a laugh), it was super nice.”
Jones also spent time at Valpo seeing their campus and basketball facilities.
“Valpo was smaller, it was a private school, it has a different vibe for sure. I liked the chapel I thought it was really cool and pretty.”
Malcolm is playing for the 18-3 Grassroots Sizzle squad this spring/summer. His brother Robert Jones recently transferred from Denver U to Iowa State.
