James William Jones (born July 27, 1949) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey defenceman.
Jones was drafted by the Boston Bruins in the 1969 NHL Amateur Draft, but did not see any playing time with them. He was signed as a free agent by the California Golden Seals in June, 1971, appearing in two games for the Seals. He spent the majority of his career with the Seals playing for their minor league affiliates in the Western Hockey League, International Hockey League and American Hockey League (the Salt Lake Golden Eagles, Columbus Seals and Baltimore Clippers, respectively).
In September 1973, he signed a contract with the Chicago Cougars of the World Hockey Association, playing in a single game. Jones retired in 1976.
