Won't play Wednesday
Jones (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

Questionable for Wednesday
Jones is questionable for Wednesday's game in Atlanta due to right ankle soreness.
Analyse
Pelicans' head coach James Borrego said after Tuesday's loss to the Lakers that Jones was in danger of sitting out Wednesday's game due to the ankle issue, and now he's officially being listed as questionable. With both Jones and Trey Murphy (back) uncertain for Wednesday's game, Jordan Poole could see a sizeable uptick in minutes in a potential starting role versus the Hawks.

Uncertain for Wednesday
Interim head coach James Borrego said after Tuesday's 111-103 loss to the Lakers that Jones is uncertain for Wednesday's game against the Hawks due to right ankle injury management, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports. He finished Tuesday's contest with three points (1-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal across 35 minutes.
Analyse
Jones returned from a seven-game absence due to a sprained right ankle Tuesday and showed some signs of rust, struggling to find his rhythm on the offensive end. It's encouraging that the 27-year-old forward didn't operate under a minutes restriction during his return, though he should be considered questionable for the second leg of this back-to-back set until New Orleans offers an update on his status.

Will play against Lakers
Jones (ankle) will play in Tuesday's game against the Lakers, Erin Summers of the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network reports.
Analyse
Jones is all set to return from a seven-game absence with a sprained right ankle. It's possible the Pelicans have a minutes restriction in mind for the forward, but it's worth noting that Saddiq Bey (hip) is out. Over his last six appearances, Jones has averaged 10.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.3 steals in 22.0 minutes per game.

Iffy for Tuesday

Analyse
Jones has a chance to end a seven-game absence Tuesday. With Saddiq Bey (hip) already ruled out, the Pelicans could need Jones to play significant minutes if the forward is upgraded to available.

Analyse
