Analiz

Jones and Kobe Brown were the only two players in Saturday's preseason opener to see over 20 minutes of playing time. Jones is competing for a backup role on the Clippers' regular-season roster behind starting center Ivica Zubac, and the former got an extended look Saturday due to Mo Bamba (knee) not playing. Jones didn't play in 2023-24 due to personal reasons and a hamstring strain late in the regular season. He played in 46 regular-season games in 2022 with the Hornets and averaged 3.4 points, 2.7 rebounds, 0.3 assists and 0.7 blocks across 12.0 minutes per game.
