Jones finished with three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two assists and one rebound in 19 minutes of Friday's 128-98 preseason win over the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Jones made his second straight start of the preseason with Jalen Suggs (knee) on the shelf. Suggs is iffy for Opening Night at this point, but Jones isn't a lock to start if Suggs is unavailable -- Anthony Black made a strong impression off the bench Friday with 12 points and five assists in 21 minutes.

Jones will start in Saturday's preseason game against the Heat, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Jalen Suggs (knee) sidelined, Jones will get the starting nod in the club's preseason opener. The veteran point guard signed a one-year, $7 million deal with Orlando this summer after spending the 2024-25 campaign with the Suns, during which he averaged 10.2 points, 5.3 assists and 2.4 rebounds across 26.8 minutes per game in 81 regular-season appearances (58 starts).

Jones agreed to a one-year, $7 million deal with the Magic on Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran point guard will provide the Magic with backcourt depth, competing with Anthony Black for minutes at the point behind Jalen Suggs (knee). Jones appeared in 81 regular-season games (58 starts) in 2024-25, averaging 10.2 points, 5.3 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 2.0 three-pointers across 26.8 minutes per contest. He also shot a career-high-tying 41.4 percent from beyond the arc. Jones is a capable facilitator who will help take some of the playmaking load off the club's top options -- Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner, Desmond Bane and Suggs.

Jones supplied 17 points (7-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists and one steal over 26 minutes during Sunday's 109-98 loss to the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Jones was one of the role players who posted a solid line in this regular-season finale. The veteran floor general showed he can be a regular starter throughout the season. Still, he was mostly limited to a bench status once the Big Three of Bradley Beal (rest), Devin Booker (calf) and Kevin Durant (ankle) was healthy. Jones averaged 10.2 points, 5.3 assists and 2.4 rebounds per game in 81 appearances (58 starts).

Jones is in the Suns' starting lineup against the Kings on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has come off the bench in 20 of the Suns' last 21 games, but he'll start in the regular-season finale due to the absences of Devin Booker (calf) and Bradley Beal (rest). Jones has averaged 8.5 points, 2.8 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals over 19.0 minutes per game since the beginning of April.

Jones provided 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt), one rebound, six assists and two steals across 20 minutes during Friday's 123-103 loss to the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

Devin Booker was the Suns' go-to option on offense due to the absence of Kevin Durant (ankle) and the woeful performance of Bradley Beal (hamstring). Still, among the players with secondary roles, Jones did a good job as a scorer and playmaker. The veteran floor general has scored in double digits in three of his last seven outings off the bench. While he's not going to steal the starting role off Collin Gillespie anytime soon, Jones could be worth a look in deep category-based leagues as a streaming option.

Jones logged 16 points (6-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 133-123 loss to Milwaukee.

EDGE Analysis

With Kevin Durant (ankle) and Bradley Beal (hamstring) both on the shelf, more usage could continue to trickle down to Jones. However, he's been quiet prior to Tuesday, as he's averaging 9.3 points, 3.5 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.8 three-pointers over his last four outings.

Jones notched eight points (4-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists in 25 minutes during Monday's 108-106 win over Milwaukee.

EDGE Analysis

Collin Gillespie continues to start at point guard for the Suns in the absence of Bradley Beal (hamstring), but the former hasn't made a big impact on the stat sheet. Jones has remained viable off the bench, however, posting averages of 10.0 points, 2.7 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 1.7 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 23.7 minutes over his last three appearances.

Jones chipped in 20 points (6-7 FG, 6-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and four assists over 24 minutes off the bench during Friday's 122-106 victory over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

The 20 points represented Jones' best output since he delivered 21 against the Grizzlies on New Year's Eve. The six made threes also tied his season high, and the 28-year-old guard has scored in double digits in three straight contests while going 13-for-17 from beyond the arc.

Jones is not in the Suns' starting lineup against the Rockets on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Jones started in Monday's loss to the Grizzlies and finished with 12 points, seven assists, three rebounds and one steal over 29 minutes. He will revert to a reserve role Wednesday due to the return of Bradley Beal (calf).
