Another dud in win
Jones produced three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two assists and one block across 14 minutes during Sunday's 135-127 win over the Pacers.
Analysis
Even with Jalen Suggs (knee) battling yet another injury, Jones just can't seem to get much going in Orlando. Over his last eight games, he's averaging 23.3 minutes per night with 6.0 points, 3.4 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals.

Reverting to bench Wednesday
Jones won't start against the Pacers on Wednesday.
Analysis
With Jalen Suggs (hip) back in action, Jones will slide to the second unit. In 25 appearances off the bench this season, the veteran point guard has averaged 2.5 points and 2.1 assists in 14.0 minutes per contest.

Decent line in loss
Jones closed Monday's 107-106 loss to Toronto with 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 28 minutes.
Analysis
With the emergence of Anthony Black this season, Jones hasn't been able to build much momentum in Orlando's backcourt and remains a low-end fantasy asset. Over his last seven appearances, Jones is averaging 7.3 points, 4.0 assists, 2.4 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 24.1 minutes per contest.
