Top Herbert Jones News

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Struggles with shot

    Jones supplied 16 points (4-12 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 119-112 loss to the Thunder.

    Jones' primary responsibility Tuesday was slowing down Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (24 points, 9-20 FG), although going cold from beyond the arc stagnated the Pelicans' offense down the stretch. That said, Jones knocking down 42.5 percent of 3.5 threes per game this season appears sustainable, as the 25-year-old is making 41.9 percent of his guarded attempts.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Three rejections in return

    Jones closed Tuesday's 104-91 win over the Nets with 11 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists and three blocks over 34 minutes.

    After missing the Pelicans' prior game due to a hip/back bruise, Jones looked pretty healthy as he racked up three blocks for the third time in his last four contests. However, the third-year forward has seen his shot volume shrink in March, and through seven games on the month, he's averaging 7.9 points, 2.9 assists, 2.7 boards, 1.6 blocks, 1.4 threes and 1.3 steals despite shooting 54.1 percent from the floor.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Good to go against Brooklyn

    Jones (hip/back) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Nets, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Jones will return to action Tuesday after missing New Orleans' previous contest due to a contusion to his lower back/hip. He should replace Trey Murphy in the starting lineup against Brooklyn. Jones has averaged 10.7 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks in 31.9 minutes across his last 10 outings.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Probable for Tuesday

    Jones (hip/back) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Nets.

    This is an expected injury designation, as Jones was able to practice in full Monday after missing Saturday's game versus Portland. If he gets through warmups without any setbacks, he'll likely be right back in the starting lineup, with Trey Murphy moving to the bench.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Goes through practice

    Jones (hip) was able to go through a full practice Monday, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

    Jones didn't play Saturday against Portland after tweaking his hip and back after a fall during Friday's win over the Clippers. It sounds like he's trending in the right direction for Tuesday against the Nets, but there should be more clarity when the Pelicans release their injury report Monday evening.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Out against Portland

    Jones (hip/back) will not play Saturday against Portland, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Jones is a bit shaken up after a scary fall during Friday's win versus the Clippers. He was able to carry on in that game, but he's experiencing soreness Saturday and will be day-to-day going forward. Trey Murphy is likely to benefit the most from a fantasy perspective in Jones' absence.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Questionable against Portland

    Jones is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Trail Blazers due to a lower back/hip contusion.

    Jones is in danger of missing his first game since Feb. 2 on Saturday due to a lower back/hip injury. If Jones is ruled out, Trey Murphy will likely replace him in the starting lineup.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Hits five threes vs. Toronto

    Jones registered 17 points (6-10 FG, 5-8 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and two steals across 25 minutes during Tuesday's 139-98 win over Toronto.

    Jones' five threes Tuesday was a season-high mark for the 2021 second-round pick out of Alabama. His shooting from beyond the arc has risen to 43.6 percent on 3.6 attempts per game, both of which are career highs. Jones has scored 15-plus points in seven of his last nine outings.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: All-around showing in victory

    Jones provided 17 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and five steals over 35 minutes during Monday's 96-87 victory over the Grizzlies.

    Jones led all Pelicans players in scoring and steals while connecting on a team-high-tying trio of threes and ending one rebound short of a double-double in a well-rounded performance. Jones has hauled in nine or more rebounds in two games this season, while his five steals tied a season high. He has recorded at least 15 points and five boards in seven outings this year.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Posts 14 points in victory

    Jones finished with 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists and three steals over 37 minutes during Saturday's 93-84 victory over the Trail Blazers.

    Jones' shot was on point despite the low total from the team, as the Alabama product missed just one of his seven shot attempts. Despite a firm grasp on the first-unit job, Jones' totals tend to fluctuate widely, making him an undesirable fantasy option. He's exceeded 20 points only twice this season and fails to produce significant secondary numbers.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Quiet in return

    Jones (adductor) supplied seven points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 22 minutes during Monday's 138-100 win over the Raptors.

    Due to the Pelicans' big margin of victory, Jones was eased back in from a two-game absence due to a sore adductor with a lighter workload than usual. The third-year forward is connecting at a career-best 39.2 percent of his three-point attempts this season to raise his offensive floor, but for fantasy purposes, he continues to bring most of his value in the two defensive categories.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Back in action Monday

    Jones (groin) will play Monday versus Toronto, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.

    Jones returns from a two-game absence that was due to right adductor soreness. He is joined by Zion Williamson (foot) and Larry Nance (ankle) in being cleared to play, bringing the Pelicans to full strength Monday.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Shapes up as game-time call

    Jones (adductor) remains listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Raptors, and a decision on his status will be made following warmups in advance of the 8 p.m. ET tipoff, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.

    Jones was a full participant in Friday's practice and was on the court for Monday's morning shootaround, so he appears likelier than not to suit up Monday. The third-year forward has missed the Pelicans' last two games with right adductor soreness, which has allowed Trey Murphy to pick up a pair of starts.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Iffy for Monday

    Jones (adductor) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Raptors.

    Jones is at risk of missing his third consecutive game due to a sore right adductor. On a positive note, Jones was able to log a full practice Sunday, so even if he's unavailable Monday, he appears to be trending in the right direction.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Logs full practice Sunday

    Jones (adductor) was a full participant during Sunday's practice, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

    Jones missed the last two games due to a sore right adductor, but he's trending in the right direction ahead of Monday's matchup versus Toronto. His status for the game should be revealed when New Orleans posts its injury report later Sunday.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Won't play Friday

    Jones (thigh) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Spurs, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.

    Jones continues to deal with a sore right adductor and will be unavailable for a second consecutive matchup. He'll have a few days to rest before the Pelicans face the Raptors on Monday. Trey Murphy and Naji Marshall could see increased run Friday.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Partially participates in practice

    Jones (thigh) participated in portions of Thursday's practice session, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Jones was unavailable for Wednesday's game against the Rockets, but it's encouraging that he was at least able to partially participate in practice a day later. However, it's not yet clear whether he'll be available for Friday's game against the Spurs. If Jones and/or Zion Williamson (foot) are sidelined again, Naji Marshall and Jonas Valanciunas should see increased run for the Pelicans.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Questionable versus San Antonio

    Jones (thigh) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Spurs.

    Jones is in danger of missing his second straight contest Friday due to right thigh soreness. With Zion Williamson (foot) and Larry Nance (ankle) questionable, Trey Murphy and Naji Marshall could receive a hefty boost in minutes.

  • Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Downgraded to out

    Jones (thigh) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Jones and Zion Williamson (foot) have both been ruled out, so Trey Murphy, Dyson Daniels, Jordan Hawkins and Naji Marshall are all candidates for increased roles. This is Jones' first absence since Nov. 12, but he can be considered day-to-day moving forward, with Friday's matchup in San Antonio marking his next chance to suit up.
