Herbert Jones News, Rumors, Updates - New Orleans Pelicans

Records five steals Jones produced five points (1-8 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and five steals in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 113-109 victory over the Warriors.

Impact Jones recorded at least five steals for the second time this season -- he snatched eight back on Dec. 18. Jones has been a little underwhelming for the most part in recent weeks, however, as he's averaging 7.3 points, 3.4 assists, 3.1 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 30.9 minutes per contest.

Rough shooting continues Jones registered eight points (3-11 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one block across 30 minutes during Monday's 120-94 win over the Kings.

Impact With Jordan Poole totally phased out of the New Orleans rotation, Jones seems to be locked in as the top shooting guard the rest of the way. Jones still appears to be knocking off some rust after missing extended time with an ankle sprain in January. Over his last nine outings, Jones has averaged 7.6 points, 3.7 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 29.5 minutes per game while shooting a poor 24.4 percent from deep.

Hits season-high four treys in loss Jones accumulated 12 points (4-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 36 minutes during Monday's 102-95 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Jones cashed in a season-high four triples Monday after failing to eclipse more than one in a game since returning from his ankle injury. While he has not shot the ball well from beyond the arc recently, converting just 18.2 percent of his three-point attempts in the five games prior, Jones' performance Monday can be an encouraging sign that he may be getting back on track in regards to his efficiency.

Hands out five dimes in 27 minutes Jones notched nine points (3-12 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, five assists, two blocks and two steals across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 104-95 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Jones opened Tuesday's game with six straight misses and never found his footing offensively. The struggles were team-wide, as the Pelicans shot just 34-for-99 from the floor and 10-for-40 from three-point range against the Thunder's No. 1-rated defense. On the positive side, Jones contributed four stocks and five assists without a turnover, and ended his evening with a plus-nine differential.

Brings defense, assists in return Jones (ankle) finished with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt), five assists, two rebounds, two steals and two blocks across 25 minutes in Friday's 133-127 win over the Grizzlies.

Impact With Jones making his return from an eight-game absence due to a right ankle sprain, the Pelicans opted to include him as part of a starting unit that lacked a true point guard while Jeremiah Fears moved to the bench. Jones ended up taking on some extra playmaking responsibilities as a result and netted a season-high assist total, and his output in that category plus strong defensive numbers helped offset the lack of scoring production. Assuming his ankle presented no complications during Friday's contest, Jones could see his minutes pick up slightly in the Pelicans' next game Sunday in San Antonio.

Available Friday Jones (ankle) is available for Friday's game against Memphis.

Impact Jones will shake off his questionable tag and return from an eight-game absence due to a right ankle sprain. The 27-year-old forward has appeared in just one game since Dec. 23, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate under a minutes restriction. Still, his return will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Micah Peavy, Bryce McGowens and Jordan Hawkins.

Iffy for Friday Jones (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.

Impact Jones has a chance to end a seven-game absence with an ankle sprain. If the forward makes his return to the New Orleans lineup, fewer minutes would be available for Saddiq Bey and Yves Missi in the frontcourt rotation.

Questionable for Wednesday Jones is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pistons with a sprained right ankle.

Impact Jones is trying end a seven-game absence with the sprain. His absence would leave Saddiq Bey locked into significant minutes, while the door would stay open for Yves Missi to soak up more playing time in the frontcourt if Jones ends up missing another contest.
