Prospect Watch: Ben Jones

The 22-year-old forward scored a pair of goals in the Silver Knights’ April 2 win against Tucson—the first two-goal game of his professional career. Jones, the final pick of the Golden Knights’ inaugural entry draft in 2017, had five goals and six assists in 21 games with Henderson at press time.
