Jamier Jones, a five-star wing out of Florida, will head to Providence in 2025.
The 16th-ranked recruit on the ESPN 100 announced his commitment to the Friars in an Instagram Live session with Joe Tipton of On3 Sports.
The 6-foot-6 Jones is a vaunted athlete with incredible bounce. A junior at Oak Ridge High School in Orlando, he leads the squad in scoring (19.2 points per game), rebounding (8.5), and field-goal percentage (68%), per MaxPreps.

He also helped take his school to the state championship on March 9 where it fell by five points to Columbus.
Jones will be joined in 2025-26 by center Oswin Erhunmwunse, a four-star recruit who announced his commitment in January.
