She posted a tied for team best nine three-pointers made, which also tied for fourth most in the tournament.

The Championships were held in Klaipėda and Panevėžys, Lithuania.

In the nine games, Jones averaged 10.0 points, 4.3 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.7 steals, while collecting her third career gold medal with USA Basketball. Jones started each of the nine contests and her 4.3 assists per game average ranked tied for fourth among all teams.
