Back in 2018, Team South Carolina guards Russell Jones and Tre Jackson put on a show during the travel season. The guard tandem were one of the bast backcourts that I saw throughout that summer. Now they are teaming up again after hitting the transfer portal. They are heading to Cullowhee, North Carolina to play for Justin Gray at Western Carolina University.
