Herbert Jones News: Solid night in return from injury

Jones (calf) logged 17 points (6-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, four assists, four steals and one block across 26 minutes during Monday's 135-132 loss to the Spurs.

Jones appeared in his first game since Nov. 21 after missing the previous eight contests due to a right calf strain. He was unable to connect from downtown but shot the ball well from inside the arc, and he also went perfect from the charity stripe. Jones' defensive effort didn't go unnoticed, racking up a team-high steal total in the tightly-contested loss.
