Jones exited early from their last game, but he hasn't played a large role this year. With Jeremy Sochan expected back, the Spurs will have plenty of playmakers without Jones, with both Chris Paul and Stephon Castle filling the role.
Jones was on the wrong end of a Domantas Sabonis screen during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game, taking a hard hit to his left shoulder. Jones missing time would not significantly impact fantasy basketball, as Chris Paul and Stephon Castle have taken on most of the playmaking responsibilities.
Jones will be available for the first time since opening night, and rotation minutes will be available due to Devin Vassell sitting out the second game of the back-to-back. However, fantasy managers do not need to add Jones immediately; adding him to your watch list is good enough, especially with Chris Paul running the show.
This is the second night of a back-to-back, and with Vassell having just returned from a foot surgery, they'll let him sit out. Tre Jones is returning to the rotation for the first time since opening night, and he should soak up Vassell's minutes, along with Malaki Branham and Blake Wesley.
Jones has been sidelined since opening night, but he is expected to play against the Mavs on the second night of a back-to-back. Devin Vassell, who has been coming off the bench, is sitting this game out, which will open up minutes for Jones.
