Jones (hamstring) tallied eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt), one rebound, one assist, one steal and one block across 20 minutes in Thursday's 118-95 win over the Mavericks. Jones returned to the fold after a two-game absence due to a right hamstring strain. He took back his spot in the starting five from Amir Coffey but was eased back in with a lighter role than usual, as Jones saw about five fewer minutes than his season-long average (24.8). While Jones looks poised to stick on the top unit for the time being, he could be at risk of moving to the bench when Kawhi Leonard (knee) is cleared to make his season debut, which could happen as soon as next week.

Jones (hamstring) will play Thursday night against Dallas, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports. Jones has missed his squad's last two matchups while on the mend from a right hamstring strain, but has been given the green light to suit up Thursday. He'll rejoin the first unit, though coach Tyronn Lue noted the UNLV product will be on a minutes restriction, per Azarly. He was averaging 10.1 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.4 steals in his previous 10 appearances before going down with the injury.

Jones (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Mavericks, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports. Jones was initially expected to be out for around two weeks according to a report from Dec. 10, but the former UNLV standout seems to be recovering more quickly than expected. The questionable tag suggests a decision on Jones' status will be made closer to Thursday's 8:30 p.m. ET tipoff. If he can't go, Nicolas Batum would likely remain in the starting lineup.

The Clippers announced Tuesday that Jones has a right hamstring strain and will be re-evaluated in two weeks, Joey Linn of SI.com reports. Jones started each of the Clippers' first 25 games, averaging 25.0 minutes a night, so his absence will be a big blow. However, the Clippers also got some positive injury news Tuesday, as James Harden (groin), Mo Bamba (knee), Amir Coffey (shoulder) and Kris Dunn (illness) all logged full practices, while Kawhi Leonard (knee) was a partial participant.

Jones won't return to Sunday's game against the Rockets due to right hamstring soreness, Joey Linn of SI.com reports. He totaled two points (1-1 FG) and one block over 12 minutes before exiting. Jones didn't have much of an impact before his departure, and it'll be up to Nicolas Batum and Kai Jones to eat up more minutes in the frontcourt for the rest of the game while the Clippers are without several key players due to injury.
