Early life

Jones was born and raised in East St. Louis, Illinois, the son of Robert Jones Jr. and Vickie (Jones) Franklin. He has two older siblings, Robert Jones III and Tonia (Jones) Wiggins, and his brother and father are Baptist ministers. He moved to O'Fallon, Illinois as a child, and grew up playing a number of sports, including tennis and football. "Roosevelt was probably the clumsiest child that we had because he was very, very awkward,” his father said. “But when a basketball entered his hands, that all changed.” [1] Jones developed his unorthodox playing style after his father enrolled him in a church league as a child and he could not get his shot off against older players. In eighth grade, he broke his wrist, permanently affecting his shot. [2]

Jones attended O'Fallon Township High School, where he was coached by Rick Gibson. He took to weightlifting to fill out his "pencil-thin" frame and was the sophomore leader on a 14–15 team. [1] As a junior he led O'Fallon to the semifinals of Illinois' 2010 Class 4A state tournament. [3] Jones had 22 points and 19 rebounds in that game, a 48–42 loss to Simeon Career Academy which featured Jabari Parker. [1] He averaged 19.3 points and 12.1 rebounds per game that year. [4] In his senior season, Jones averaged 17.2 points, 10.4 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 2.9 steals and 1.1 blocked shots per game. He led O'Fallon to a 20–7 record and a win in the Southwestern Conference championship while being named to the All-Metro First Team. [5] He was a three-star recruit ranked in the 2011 Rivals 150 and the 33rd best freshman small forward in his class. [6] Assistant coach Terry Johnson recruited Jones to Butler, but he did not notice Jones's poor shooting style due to his athleticism. [7] He received recruiting interest from Purdue, Iowa, Oklahoma State and Kansas, but stuck with Butler. [1]
