Tyus Jones News
Memphis Grizzlies guard Tyus Jones could be changing teams this offseason. The Washington Wizards reportedly have interest in signing Jones this summer. He has proven to be a capable point guard, so there should be plenty of interest for Jones in free agency. In 23 games without Ja Morant last season, Jones averaged 12.7 points and 6.6 assists per game. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Grizzlies attempt to bring back Jones. Although, the Wizards could be a fit without much talent at guard outside of Bradley Beal. They did draft Johnny Davis, but still have Jones on their radar. A move to Washington could be good for Jones. He likely won't see as much playing time in Memphis, assuming Morant is healthy next season.
Memphis Grizzlies guard Tyus Jones received the start in Monday's Game 4 contest with Ja Morant (knee) sidelined. Jones did what he could, but it's tough for the Grizzlies to do a lot without their superstar guard. He went 8-for-18 from the floor with 19 points, six rebounds, and five assists in the loss to Golden State. Fantasy managers should consider Jones a solid DFS option for Wednesday's Game 5, assuming he starts.
Memphis Grizzlies guards Tyus Jones (hand) and Desmond Bane (ankle) are both listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. These designations come as a surprise as both players appeared healthy after Wednesday's game. Jones, who is dealing with left hand soreness, was fantastic on Wednesday. He racked up 25 points, six assists, five rebounds and two steals in the game while hitting five three-pointers. Meanwhile, Bane, who is hampered by left ankle soreness, scored 16 points over 33 minutes in the contest. Get ready to see a big game from De'Anthony Melton on Friday. He's a must-start player if Jones and Bane indeed wind up sitting. Dillon Brooks should see increased usage as well and Ziaire Williams should see his minutes increase substantially.
Memphis Grizzlies guard Tyus Jones put together one of his best games of the season versus the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday. Jones finished with 25 points, five rebounds, six assists, and two steals in 36 minutes of play. This was his first 25-point outing since February 15. The veteran guard has been asked to take on a bigger role with Ja Morant (knee) sidelined. Normally, Jones doesn't have huge scoring games, but has been consistent lately. He is certainly worth adding in most fantasy formats while Morant is out.
