Jones scored a team-high 16 points (4-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 8-10 FT) while adding one steal in 21 minutes during Friday's 101-99 preseason win over the Trail Blazers.
After scoring just three points combined in the Clippers' first two preseason contests, Jones got his offense rolling Friday. The veteran forward is expected to be a glue player for Los Angeles this season after signing a three-year deal, $30 million contract in free agency, but his fantasy contributions are likely to be modest -- he averaged a career-high 8.6 points and 1.1 threes for the Mavericks in 2023-24.
