Jones (illness) isn't listed on the Kings' injury report for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Jones missed Sacramento's previous contest with an illness, but he's been given the green light to face New Orleans. In his last seven appearances, Jones is averaging 7.7 points and 2.9 rebounds across 15.9 minutes.

Jones has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jazz due to an illness.

EDGE Analysis

Jones averaged 15.9 minutes per game off the bench over Sacramento's last seven contests. In his absence, Keon Ellis and Kevin Huerter may see a few more minutes, while Jae Crowder and Doug McDermott are candidates to enter the rotation again.

Jones tallied 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 19 minutes in Sunday's 127-125 loss to the Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

A two-way player who had received double-digit minutes in just one of the Kings' first 18 games of the season, Jones has now received at least 19 minutes in each of the last three contests. The rookie big man has essentially taken hold of the rotation spot that previously belonged to Trey Lyles, who suffered a Grade 1 calf strain that will likely keep him out for most of December. Jones probably won't see his minutes climb much higher so long as Domantas Sabonis and Keegan Murray maintain health, but his blend of size and perimeter shooting looks like it will be enough to keep him ahead of Alex Len, Doug McDermott and Orlando Robinson in the pecking order for playing time off the bench.
