Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue said that Jones (knee) was a limited participant in Saturday's practice, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Shams Charania of ESPN previously reported that Jones would be re-evaluated in about six weeks after he sustained a Grade 2 MCL sprain of his right knee in a Jan. 3 loss to the Celtics, but the fact that the veteran forward is practicing in some capacity less than a month later suggesting he's progressing much more quickly than anticipated. Given that Jones previously missed 17 straight games earlier this season due to an MCL sprain of the same knee, the Clippers are likely to proceed cautiously with bringing him back. That said, if Jones experiences no setbacks in his next handful of practices, he looks like he could have a chance at returning to action before the All-Star break.

Jones has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 MCL sprain in his right knee and will be re-evaluated in six weeks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones suffered a sprained right MCL on Nov. 16 in a loss to the Celtics and appeared in just four games before re-injuring the same knee in Saturday's loss to Boston. The 28-year-old forward is set to be re-evaluated during the All-Star break, meaning he isn't expected to return until mid-to-late February at the earliest. With Jones sidelined, Nicolas Batum, Kobe Sanders and Kobe Brown are candidates for increased playing time going forward.

Jones suffered a right knee injury during the fourth quarter of the Clippers' 146-115 loss to the Celtics on Saturday and did not return, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones could put barely any weight on his right leg while being helped to the locker room. The injury is to the same knee he hurt against Boston on Nov. 16, which caused Jones to miss 17 straight games. Jones will undergo further tests to determine the severity of the injury, but the veteran forward is in jeopardy of being sidelined for Monday's contest against the Warriors. Kobe Sanders and Nicolas Batum would be in line for more minutes off the bench if Jones were to miss time.

Jones went to the locker room early in the fourth quarter of Saturday's game against the Celtics, Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones appeared to roll his right ankle in a collision with Payton Pritchard, and the former was helped off the floor and into the locker room without putting much pressure on the affected leg. If Jones doesn't return, he'll finish with 19 points (8-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one block over 25 minutes. Nicolas Batum and Kris Dunn could see more minutes down the stretch if Jones remains in the locker room.

Jones (knee) tallied three points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and three rebounds across 18 minutes off the bench Sunday in the Clippers' 112-99 win over the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

After starting in each of his first 13 appearances of the season before being shut down in mid-November due to an MCL sprain of his right knee, Jones was eased back into the rotation as a reserve in his return to action Sunday. The 28-year-old offered little production in his limited run, and though Jones' playing time should climb a bit in his future appearances, he could struggle to see a consistent 25-to-30-minute role when both Kawhi Leonard and John Collins (illness) are available.

Jones will come off the bench and be on a minutes restriction Sunday against the Pistons, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has been sidelined since Nov. 16 due to an MCL sprain, but he will make his return to the lineup in a reserve role Sunday. Not surprisingly, Jones will face a minutes restriction in his return.

Jones (knee) is off the injury report and will be available for Sunday's game against Detroit, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has been out of action since Nov. 16 due to a sprained MCL, so if he plays Sunday, he'll likely be operating with heavy restrictions. His return could result in fewer minutes for rookie Kobe Sanders, who has been a mainstay in the rotation over the last five-plus weeks. Before missing time due to the injury, Jones averaged 10.5 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.2 blocks across 24.9 minutes per game over 13 appearances.

Jones (knee) has progressed to going through 5-on-5 work, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones is nearing his return from a sprained MCL, as going through 5-on-5 work is typically the final step in the rehab process. Jones will likely have heavy minutes restrictions in his first few games back, but once he's fully up to speed, he could chip away at Jordan Miller's minutes.

Jones (knee) was spotted working on the side during Saturday's practice, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones suffered a sprained MCL in his right knee in mid-November against the Celtics. His return to the court Saturday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- is an encouraging sign, and head coach Ty Lue relayed that Jones has progressed to 3-on-3 work and is ahead of his recovery schedule, per NBA writer Justin Russo. In 13 regular-season games before sustaining the injury, Jones averaged 10.5 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.2 threes, 1.2 blocks and 0.8 steals over 24.9 minutes per game.

Jones sustained a sprained MCL in his right knee and will be re-evaluated in six weeks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones suffered the right knee injury in Sunday's loss to the Celtics and is set to miss an extended period. The veteran forward was a mainstay in the starting five in his first 13 regular-season appearances, during which he averaged 10.5 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 assists in 24.9 minutes per contest. With Jones sidelined, Nicolas Batum, Kobe Sanders and Bogdan Bogdanovic (hip) are candidates to see increased minutes.
