Charles Rahmel Jones (born July 17, 1975) is a retired American professional basketball player who played in the NBA.

Raised in Bedford–Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, New York, Jones was one of two children of Charles and Cathy Jones and graduated from Bishop Ford Central Catholic High School in 1993. In 1997, Jones estimated to The New York Times that around 15 of his friends from Bedford-Stuyvesant were killed on the streets.[1]

Jones attended Rutgers University and Long Island University, before spending two seasons in the NBA for the Chicago Bulls (1998–99) and the Los Angeles Clippers (1999–2000). Afterwards, he played overseas, notably in Argentina.

While playing for Long Island University, he led the league in scoring twice (1996-97, 1997-98), and he was the last player to average 30 points or more in a season when he averaged 30.1 points per game in the 1996-97 season. (See List of college basketball scoring leaders)
