Lamont "MoMo" Jones (born June 26, 1990) is an American basketball player, currently playing for KK Mornar Bar in Montenegro. He was a standout college player for Iona College and was an honorable mention All-American and conference player of the year as a senior. He also played at the University of Arizona.
Jones, a 6'0 guard from Harlem, New York, led prep powerhouse Oak Hill Academy to a 41-1 record as a senior, averaging 21.3 points and 8 assists per game. He signed originally with the University of Southern California, but was released from his commitment when head coach Tim Floyd resigned. He landed at Arizona and played two seasons for the Wildcats. The highlight of his time in Tucson was scoring 16 points as Arizona upset top seeded defending champion Duke in the Sweet Sixteen of the 2011 NCAA Tournament.
Following the 2010–11 season, Jones decided to transfer from Arizona to Iona, a school closer to his home in New York City where his grandmother was ill. He was granted a waiver by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and allowed to play immediately. As a junior in 2011–12, Jones teamed with senior Scott Machado in the backcourt to lead the Gaels to the NCAA Tournament. Jones scored 15.7 points per game and was named second team All-Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC).
