Tyus Jones News, Rumors, Updates - Phoenix Suns

Sets season high in assists in loss Jones had two points (1-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds, 15 assists and three steals over 37 minutes during Thursday's 113-109 loss to New York.

Impact Jones led all players in Thursday's contests in assists while setting a new season high mark in the category while tallying a team-best steals total in a losing effort. Jones has handed out 10 or more assists in three games this year, his first such performance since recording 11 dimes Dec. 17 against Phoenix.

Hits for 22 in Monday's loss Jones racked up 22 points (9-19 FG, 4-10 3Pt), six rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Monday's 129-117 loss to Detroit.

Impact It's been a big month for the veteran point guard. After a sluggish start to his Wizards' tenure, Jones has found a groove, averaging 15.3 points, 6.4 assists, 2.7 boards, 2.4 threes and 1.4 steals over the last 15 games while shooting 53.1 percent from the floor and 49.3 percent from beyond the arc. The 27-year-old is in the final year of his current contract, but he may be playing well enough to have the Wizards view him as something more than a tradable asset.

Strong run continues Jones finished with 18 points (7-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine assists and three steals over 31 minutes during Monday's 136-128 loss to the Thunder.

Impact The 27-year-old guard just missed his third double-double of the season. Jones is getting comfortable in his starting role for the Wizards, and since breaking out with a triple-double against the Pacers on Dec. 15, he's averaging 15.5 points, 6.8 assists, 2.8 boards, 2.5 threes and 1.6 steals while shooting 56.9 percent from the floor and 56.1 percent from beyond the arc over the last 13 games.

Poor shooting in defeat Saturday Jones accumulated 11 points (4-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and eight assists across 28 minutes during Saturday's 121-105 loss to New York.

Impact Jones struggled badly from the floor and needed 13 shots to score 11 points Saturday, but he did make an impact as a playmaker, and his eight assists were the seventh time this season in which he dished out eight or more dimes. He's averaging 14.5 points, 6.1 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game since the start of December.

JANUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Leading scorer in loss Jones registered 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt), one rebound, five assists and two steals in 26 minutes during Friday's 114-90 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact Jones has now scored in double digits in 10 of his 11 games coming off the bench. He's averaging 15.7 points on 58.7 percent shooting (and is reaching that same mark from three-point range), 6.5 assists and 3.3 rebounds over that span. He's seen his minutes increase since December and could be carving a larger role for himself in the Wizards' offense.

Tyus Jones Status For Today's Game vs the Hawks Revealed Atlanta and the Wizards face off today at 3:00 p.m. today in Washington

DECEMBER 31, 2023 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Good to go Jones (foot) is available for Sunday's game against the Hawks, Ava Wallace of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Jones tweaked his foot during the third quarter of Friday's win over Brooklyn but finished the contest with 12 points and six assists in 31 minutes. He was given a questionable designation for Sunday but shouldn't have any limitations against Atlanta.

DECEMBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Listed questionable for Sunday Jones is questionable for Sunday's game against the Hawks due to left foot soreness.

Impact This is a new injury for Jones, but the questionable tag suggests that he is day-to-day. The rest of Washington's injury report is clear, with the exception that Danilo Gallinari is out with a back issue. If Jones is unable to play Sunday, the Wizards will likely turn to Delon Wright and Landry Shamet to hold down the fort.

Goes for 22 points in loss Jones finished Tuesday's 127-119 loss to Orlando with 22 points (8-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes.

Impact Jones has been on a roll of late, scoring in double digits for the sixth consecutive contest and reaching the six-assist mark for the fifth time in that span. Even though Kyle Kuzma and Jordan Poole are the undisputed leaders on offense for a struggling Wizards team, Jones has done a good job as a reliable floor general. Despite his secondary role on offense, he is serviceable in most fantasy formats in what has been his first full year as a starter in The Association.

DECEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Top distributor in defeat Jones notched 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds, six assists and one steal across 25 minutes during Friday's 129-118 loss to Golden State.

Impact Jones led all Wizards in assists while hauling in a trio of rebounds and finishing as one of four players with a double-digit point total in a losing effort. Jones has tallied at least 10 points and five assists in 14 games this season, including in four of his last five outings.

DECEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Season-best scoring effort Jones finished with 24 points (9-15 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Thursday's 118-117 victory over Portland.

Impact The 24 points and five made threes were both season highs for the point guard, who's beginning to find his footing with the Wizards. Since the calendar flipped to December, Jones is averaging 15.2 points, 6.4 assists, 3.4 boards, 2.2 threes and 1.8 steals over nine games while shooting a blistering 60.2 percent from the floor and 54.1 percent from beyond the arc. He'll cool down eventually, but if he can maintain that elevated assist rate, Jones will still have plenty of fantasy value.

Double-double streak snaps Monday Jones ended Monday's 143-131 loss to Sacramento with 16 points (7-10 FG, 2-2 3Pt), one rebound, nine assists and one steal over 28 minutes.

Impact Jones finished with one assist away from recording what would've been his third straight double-double, and the point guard seems to be finally taking ownership of the offense of the team, allowing Kyle Kuzma and Jordan Poole to operate solely as scorers instead of primary ball-handlers. Jones has been playing very well in recent weeks, and if he can keep this up, then his fantasy stock should continue to move in the right direction.

DECEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Records double-double in loss Jones had 22 points (9-15 FG, 4-6 3Pt), four rebounds, 11 assists, one block and six steals across 39 minutes during Sunday's 112-108 loss to the Suns.

Impact Jones finally registered double-digit assists for a second consecutive game, following up his superb triple-double Friday night with another impressive total. Although Jones' scoring totals have jumped in his starting role with the Wizards this season, he's underperforming as a ball distributor, capping his fantasy potential.

Tyus Jones records triple-double in win over Pacers

Efficient night in loss Jones ended with 20 points (8-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and one steal across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 131-126 loss to the 76ers.

Impact Jones tied with Deni Avdija with the most assists on the team. Jones has now scored in double digits in nine of his last 11 games as he continues to establish his role on offense alongside the duo of Jordan Poole and Kyle Kuzma. Jones will look to build off his strong performance Friday against the Nets.

DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Decent output in loss Jones chipped in 13 points (5-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds, six assists and two steals in 26 minutes during Friday's 130-125 loss to the Magic.

Impact Jones' scoring numbers have been up and down -- mostly down -- all season long due to his secondary role on offense, but at least he was efficient with his shot and also dished out decent assist numbers. He has struggled to produce as a regular starter, and playing with two ball-dominant players, such as Kyle Kuzma and Jordan Poole, doesn't help his cause, either. It's too early to drop Jones in most leagues, but it's not a secret that his overall production has been subpar most of the time.

DECEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Continues to struggle Jones closed with seven points (3-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals in 21 minutes during Wednesday's 139-120 loss to the Magic.

Impact Jones came up short again Wednesday, scoring just seven points in 21 minutes. He has now scored a total of just 23 points across his past three games, adding 12 assists and two steals. Despite starting, his playing time has been up and down all season, making his fantasy value very hard to trust. He remains a must-roster player, albeit one with limited upside.
