Battling turf toe Jones is dealing with turf toe and doesn't have a timetable for return, Freelance writer Jaden Daly reports.

Impact Jones attempted to practice Saturday but couldn't move normally, hence why he missed Sunday's game against UConn. X-rays on Jones' foot came back clean, which means his return will depend on his level of pain tolerance. As Marquette takes a wait-and-see approach, Adrien Stevens and Tre Norman could soak up some of Jones' vacated minutes.

Out at UConn Jones (foot) is out for Sunday's game at Connecticut.

Impact Already struggling this season, Marquette's team will have more on its plate with top reserve guard Jones out against the Big East Conference's most successful team in recent years. Off the bench throughout December, he logged 6.4 points, 3.8 assists, 1.6 three-pointers made and 1.2 rebounds per game. With a difficult opponent like Connecticut, it would make sense if the Golden Eagles stretch out their primary backcourt's minutes, but there is also a chance that fellow guard Tre Norman returns to the rotation.

Scores eight points in return Jones (shoulder)recorded eight points (2-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, six assists and two steals across 24 minutes in Saturday's loss versus Wisconsin.

Impact Jones had missed six straight games before Saturday's matchup and ended up having a solid outing in his return. The 5-foot-10 guard compiled a team-high six assists, although he was inefficient shooting the ball, connecting on just 25.0 percent of his field-goal attempts.

Spotted warming up Saturday Jones (shoulder) is on the court warming up ahead of Saturday's game versus Wisconsin, Jack Albright of the Marquette Wire reports.

Impact Jones has been sidelined for an extended period, but it appears the senior guard may be nearing a return to action, possibly as soon as Saturday. In three games this season, Jones has averaged 6.0 points, 4.0 assists, 1.7 steals, and 1.7 rebounds per game over 21.3 minutes per contest.

DECEMBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Out for extended time Head coach Shaka Smart indicated that Jones (shoulder) is set to miss a couple weeks due to a shoulder injury, per Jack Albright of Marquette Wire.

Impact Jones has now missed three consecutive games due to a shoulder injury and appears set to miss extended time moving forward. Though he will be out for extended time, Smart made it clear that Jones' absence would be a matter of weeks, not months, setting his return date for some time around mid-late December. With Jones out, Nigel James will likely see extended run as the team's starting point guard.

DNP vs Dayton Jones (shoulder) did not play during Wednesday's matchup against Dayton.

Impact Jones was held out of Wednesday's contest due to a shoulder injury, marking his third consecutive missed game for Marquette. The 5-foot-10 guard will hope to make himself available when the Golden Eagles face Central Michigan on Saturday.

Solid in Wednesday's win Jones posted 12 points (4-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, five assists and two steals in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 100-82 win over Southern University.

Impact After a fairly quiet opening performance on Monday, Jones put together a better outing in Wednesday's victory. He was one of five Golden Eagles to score double digit points and he was second on the team with five assists. He also recorded two steals in his second straight game. It's been a rough start to the season for him from behind the arc as he's only hit on of his seven attempts thus far, but he will likely get that efficiency up as the season progresses.

Healthy for Marquette Jones (knee) is healthy and practicing for Marquette, per Ben Steele of Jsonline.come.

Impact Jones made a strong return to the court during Marquette's summer scrimmage, showing no signs of rust after missing extended time with a torn ACL. The junior guard set the tempo for the Golden Eagles and repeatedly created plays in the paint. Jones looks poised to reclaim a major role in the rotation this upcoming season as both a floor general and vocal leader.

Will redshirt 2024-25 season Jones (knee) will redshirt Marquette's 2024-25 season, according to the team.

Impact Jones will focus on fully recovering for his 2025-26 season, the redshirt junior's first of what would be two years of collegiate eligibility remaining for him. The junior injured his right knee on Jan. 10 and underwent surgery nine days later, a procedure he has yet to fully recover from.

JANUARY 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Fully cleared, in part of practice Jones (knee) has been fully cleared for all basketball-related activities and is participating in "part of practice" for Marquette, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Jones being fully cleared means he is not only a step up from five-on-five work but also ready for full-intensity practices. That does not mean he is participating in every practice, as him being "part of practice" indicates there may still be some setbacks on his side. The hope is that Jones can be fully cleared by the time Marquette's 2024 comes to a close with a game at Providence.

DECEMBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Working his way back Jones is partaking in 5-on-5 work and is progressing towards a return, Ben Steele of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Jones reportedly "looks good," according to head coach Shaka Smart. The guard is still working on conditioning and the mental aspect of things, but he appears to be ramping up his participation. Jones, who has yet to play this season, averaged 5.8 points, 1.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 16 games last season.

NOVEMBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sits out opener Jones (knee) did not take the court in Marquette's season-opening victory over Stony Brook.

Impact The team has been relatively quiet on a prospective return for Jones, who was growing into one of Marquette's top reserves and a solid ball handler before tearing his ACL in January. His next chance to return will be Friday against George Mason, but as long as the team remains mum on his status, it won't be safe to deploy him in any formats.

NOVEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sits out team scrimmage Jones (knee) did not play during Marquette's team scrimmage Saturday, according to Ben Steele of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Impact At least for now, Saturday was the Marquette Golden Eagles' lone scrimmage or exhibition of their 2024-25 season. Assuming they do not add another scrimmage or exhibition, ideally a month can pass by with at least some update of Jones' knee status before the regular season begins. For Marquette, it commences with a Nov. 4 game against Stony Brook.

OCTOBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still not fully cleared Jones (knee) is not fully cleared for basketball-related activities, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Despite it being almost half a year since Jones personally suffered an ACL tear, him not being at 100 percent physically is far from reassuring. However, it is worth noting that the severity of Jones' injury was expected to cause a long-term absence, which would have been more than six months. Also, four months remain before Marquette's 2024-25 season begins, giving him at least a good chunk of time to recover.
