Jones logged nine points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 14 rebounds and two blocks over 23 minutes during Tuesday's 117-111 win over Oklahoma City.

EDGE Analysis

Jones lurked at the bottom of box scores during Richaun Holmes' absence, but his performance Tuesday was his best effort of the season by a wide margin. Despite his placement as the third center on the depth chart, Jones is getting an extended opportunity while the team brings Holmes along slowly. The 26-year-old Jones hasn't caught on with any team since his tenure with the Warriors, but he provides depth for Sacramento inside during a time where COVID-19 health and safety protocols can quickly decimate a roster.

Jones recorded 15 points (6-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 27 minutes during Sunday's 127-102 loss to the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

The Kings might have lost this one, but Jones delivered a one of his best games of the campaign. The former Vanderbilt star hasn't been a consistent contributor, having scored in double digits just twice all season long, but it's worth noting that both of those performances have come over his last four appearances. He's also played 19 or more minutes in three of the last four games, representing a significant increase over his previous average of 8.9 per game. Of course, that run of extra playing time will likely come to an end upon the return of Alex Len from the league's COVID protocols.

Jones totaled 23 points (9-15 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 19 minutes during Sunday's 121-114 victory over the Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has mostly been a fringe-rotation guy this season, but he's taken on a slightly larger role of late with Richaun Holmes (eye) injured and Marvin Bagley in COVID-19 protocols. History suggests a stat line like this one is a major anomaly for Jones, but for managers in deep leagues, he may be worth keeping a cursory eye on for the next few games.

Jones posted 19 points (9-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, an assist a steal and a blocked shot across 36 minutes in Sunday's 121-99 loss to the Jazz.

EDGE Analysis

The season-ending injury to Richaun Holmes (knee) was directly signed to the signing of Jones, who also made a deal for next season with the Kings. Part of the team's logic in keeping Jones is also related to Holmes, who will be a free agent and could be headed elsewhere.

Jones mustered 17 points (6-7 FG, 5-6 FT), 11 rebounds and three assists across 35 minutes in Friday's loss at Memphis.

EDGE Analysis

Jones posted season-best numbers in both points and rebounds, and he mustered his first double-double of the campaign while making a spot start at center. He has scored in double digits in two of his last four games as well.

Jones is signing a contract with the Kings for the rest of the season plus 2021-22, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones did enough during two 10-day deals with Sacramento to earn himself a spot with the team going forward through next season. The 25-year-old center had bounced around the season, playing for both the Suns and the Lakers prior to finding a home with the Kings. Since joining Sacramento, Jones has averaged 3.8 points and 3.7 rebounds across 15.4 minutes per game.

Jones isn't starting Sunday's game against Dallas, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones had started each of the past two games but averaged just 2.5 points and 2.5 rebounds in 10.5 minutes per contest during that time. Hassan Whiteside will take his place in the starting five Sunday.

Jones is signing a second 10-day contract with the Kings, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has started the past two games for the Kings with Richaun Holmes (hamstring) sidelined. During his three appearances with the team, he's averaged 2.3 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 13.3 minutes.

Jones will start Thursday's game against Phoenix, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones is slated for his second start in a row with Richaun Holmes (hamstring) unavailable. In his last outing, Jones went for five points and four rebounds across 16 minutes.

Jones will start Wednesday's game against the Wizards, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old signed a 10-day contract with the Kings last week and made his debut with the team Monday, and he'll quickly join the starting five with Richaun Holmes (hamstring) sidelined. Holmes is set to miss at least the next three games, so a strong showing could earn Jones a longer look from Sacramento.
