Five points in returnSmith (ankle) had five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT), a rebound and an assist across 18 minutes in Saturday's loss to Alabama.
ImpactOriginally given a 3-to-6 week timetable for what was considered a serious ankle issue, Smith ended up returning in just over two weeks, only missing a combined four games. There was a bit of rust against the SEC's current top team, but he'll have another opportunity to regain his form Wednesday against Auburn.

Plays through injury in blowoutJones (hand) had 13 points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals across 23 minutes in Saturday's 90-59 victory over Arkansas.
ImpactEarly reports suggested Jones would sit this game due to a hand injury and make his return the following week, but the senior had other ideas. Jones ended up starting the game, but due to the blowout nature of the contest, he only took four shots and played 23 minutes. This is a good sign for fantasy players that Jones can play through injury and still be an all-around producer, but it's fair to wonder how much his shot will be affected by any lingering affects of the hand injury.
