Recalled to NBA
Indiana recalled Jones from the G League's Noblesville Boom on Monday.
Analysis
Jones has split time between both clubs after rehabbing from a major back injury but seems to be on track to become a contributor in Indiana's rotation, especially with the amount of injuries the team is dealing with. Jones has made 11 NBA appearances and is averaging 1.9 points, 0.7 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 0.3 steals across 7.5 minutes.

Good to go Friday
Jones (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Pelicans.
Analysis
Jones will shed his questionable tag due to a right ankle sprain and suit up for the front end of this back-to-back set. The rookie second-rounder has appeared in five outings with the parent club this month, during which he has averaged just 4.6 minutes per tilt.

Added to injury report
Jones is questionable for Friday's game against the Pelicans with a sprained right ankle.
Analysis
Jones is at risk of missing the first part of this back-to-back set. The guard was just recalled from the G League's Noblesville Boom on Friday, and he doesn't project to be a part of the rotation in a significant manner.

Back to NBA
Indiana recalled Jones from the G League's Noblesville Boom on Thursday.
Analysis
Jones has played a limited role for the Pacers, but he's back with the main squad after making a 39-minute appearance for the G League team, during which he tallied 14 points, seven rebounds, 10 assists and four steals against the Grand Rapids Gold. Despite not being a regular contributor at the NBA level, Jones will look to take part in the rotation in upcoming games.

Dispatched to G League
Indiana assigned Jones to the G League's Noblesville Boom on Thursday, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.
Analysis
Jones is likely to see extended minutes for the Boom in Thursday's game against the Grand Rapids Gold. He remains a member of the Pacers' 15-man roster but has struggled to see consistent playing time at the NBA level of late, averaging just 4.6 minutes while appearing in five of Indiana's first seven games of January.
