Another award has been given to a 2023-24 Stockton Kings member. Head coach Lindsey Harding was awarded G League Coach of the Year, Skal Labissiere made their All-Star equivalent (NBA G League next up game), and now two-way player Mason Jones was named to the All-NBA G League second team.

Stockton ended the regular season with a league-best 24-10 record but fell in the single-elimination conference finals against the Jahmi’us Ramsey and the Oklahoma City Blue.

Throughout his 23 regular season games, Mason Jones averaged 16.0 points, 8.3 assists, and 5.2 rebounds on 51.3 percent from the field and 47.6 percent from three on 6.3 attempts per game in 33.3 minutes. He led the team in assists per game and three-point percentage.

Jones is currently with Sacramento for their postseason push, but his production in Stockton this season should be encouraging for the 25-year-old’s future. No other Stockton player was named to an All-NBA G League team.

When is the next Sacramento Kings game?

Sacramento will need one more win on Friday night to keep their season alive and clinch a first-round playoff berth, but the New Orleans Pelicans will stand in their way as the two teams will meet for the sixth time this season.

The Pelicans have won all five head-to-head meetings against the Kings this season, including a 135-123 triumph on April 11th at Golden 1 Center.
