The Get Better Hoops Academy started back in 2013 when Jones and Avestro wanted to help kids who couldn’t afford basketball training.
Now, Get Better Hoops has expanded and is now providing AAU opportunities for kids to help grow their game and their confidence. Jones reflects on the growth of the organization saying.
“I didn’t think it would be this big, at our highest we had about 20 teams. But I feel like we are just scratching the surface,” Jones said. With the type of experience Jones has, he makes for a great mentor and trainer. “ You won’t find a better trainer in the business,” said Avestro. “With him playing professional as long as he did, he really is a great mentor for the kids.”
