德克萨斯州奥斯汀——德克萨斯州得分后卫安德鲁·琼斯的大学篮球生涯因白血病中断了近两年，他宣布将跳过长角队的最后一个赛季，转而成为职业球员。
琼斯以1620分在项目历史上排名第九。他在周日晚上发布在社交媒体上的一份声明中宣布了加入NBA选秀的决定。
琼斯说：“我们一起分享了所有可能的情感，我将永远珍视与你们所有人的经历。”。“当我正式进入2022年NBA选秀时，我很激动，最重要的是，我已经为人生的下一个篇章做好了准备。”
琼斯考虑在大一赛季后成为职业选手，但选择在2017-2018赛季回到德克萨斯州。但就在大二赛季的几场比赛中，琼斯因白血病而缺阵，这让他不得不为自己的生命而战。
他上传了自己在治疗和康复过程中的几段视频，其中一段视频显示他站着不动，试图将篮球射入一个比他身高不高的篮筐。

Texas guard Jones, who fought leukemia, to enter NBA draft
原文：
AUSTIN, Texas — Texas shooting guard Andrew Jones, whose college basketball career was interrupted for nearly two years by leukemia, has announced he will skip a final season with the Longhorns and turn pro.
Jones ranks ninth in scoring in program history with 1,620 points. He announced his decision to enter the NBA draft in a statement posted Sunday night on social media.
“We have shared every emotion possible together and I will always cherish the experience I had with you all,” Jones said. “As I officially enter my name into the 2022 NBA draft, I am excited and most importantly ready for this next chapter of life.”
Jones considered turning pro after his freshman season but opted to return to Texas for the 2017-2018 season. But just a few games into his sophomore season, Jones was sidelined with leukemia that left him fighting for his life.

He posted several short videos of himself as he fought through treatment and recovery, including one showing him standing still and trying to shoot a basketball into a hoop barely taller than he was.
