Duke freshman point guard Tyus Jones is still riding high off of his national championship and Most Outstanding Player award from the 2015 NCAA tournament.
On Monday, the native of Apple Valley, Minnesota helped deliver the ball for the ceremonial first pitch out to Minnesota Timberwolves veteran Kevin Garnett before the Twins’ home opener against the Kansas City Royals.

Jones is still weighing his options for next season as he decides whether to enter the NBA Draft or stay in school. Regardless of his future, this is a cool moment for Jones in his home state.
