EDGE Analysis

After posting five consecutive single-digit scoring efforts since the return of Terrence Jones to the lineup, Thornton flashed some of the efficient production he'd displayed as a starter earlier in November. Thornton posted his best shooting percentage from the field (56 percent) since his most recent start, and drained multiple three-pointers for the tenth time this season. While Saturday's performance was encouraging, the problem for fantasy owners is that Thornton figures to only receive 18-20 minutes on most nights as long as Jones remains healthy.
