Kings' Colby Jones: Matches season-high five points
Rotowire
Jones amassed five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and one block across four minutes during Friday's 140-113 win over the Spurs.
Jones matched his season high with five points, telling you everything you need to know regarding his current role. He has played double-digit minutes only once in 14 games, failing to score in 10 of those games. Outside of garbage time, it appears as though Jones is going to struggle to feature in the rotation on a nightly basis.

Kings' Colby Jones: Big defensive showing Sunday
Rotowire
Jones registered seven points (3-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists, two blocks and three steals in 23 minutes during Sunday's 107-77 win over Brooklyn.
The 23 minutes were a career high for the 21-year-old rookie, and Jones used the extra court time to display some impressive defensive chops. The 2023 second-round pick out of Xavier could be carving out a consistent role in the backcourt rotation, especially with Harrison Barnes' minutes shrinking and long-term injuries to Kevin Huerter (shoulder) and Malik Monk (knee).

Kings' Colby Jones: Promoted Tuesday
Rotowire
Jones was recalled to Sacramento's roster from the G League's Stockton Kings on Tuesday, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
Jones' G League performances have been a mixed bag thus far. The rookie is shooting a strong 63.3 percent at the rim, but he's knocking down just 28.6 percent of his threes through 11 games. Notably, he's been a versatile defender with point-of-attack chops and playmaking ability, evident by 25 combined steals and blocks. That being said, he's unlikely to play a meaningful role in Sacramento's rotation at this time.

Malik Monk (foot) is currently carrying a questionable designation in advance of Tuesday's game against Portland, but Jones being relegated to the G League could hint at Monk returning from a one-game absence.

Jones closed Wednesday's 102-101 loss to the Warriors with four points (2-4 FG), three rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 17 minutes.
De'Aaron Fox's (ankle) absence allowed Jones to see his first extended run of his career. The rookie guard showed his defensive potential but will likely be relegated back to a depth role once Fox returns.
