Jones is back after missing Chicago’s last 11 games with a strained left hamstring. However, with the Bulls adding Anfernee Simons, Jaden Ivey, Collin Sexton and Rob Dillingham at the trade deadline, along with Josh Giddey’s return, there may not be enough room for Jones to affect fantasy basketball.

Jones was initially listed as questionable, but he is now expected to make his return from an 11-game absence in the Bulls’ first game after the All-Star break. The backcourt looks quite different than it did when Jones last played, with Jaden Ivey, Anfernee Simons, Collin Sexton and Rob Dillingham now in the mix. Jones may not be as productive as he was earlier in the season.

Due to a strained left hamstring, Jones has missed the Bulls’ last 11 games. If he remains out on Thursday, the Bulls will avoid having too much of a logjam to deal with on the perimeter. Jones has been most useful this season when given extended minutes due to an injury to another player.

Jones is on track to miss a tenth straight game with a strained left hamstring. With the Bulls having added Jaden Ivey, Anfernee Simons and Collin Sexton at the trade deadline, it will be challenging for Jones to get the minutes needed to affect fantasy basketball once he’s cleared to play.

Saturday’s game will be the ninth that Jones has missed, having last appeared in a game on January 22. With the Bulls adding Jaden Ivey, Anfernee Simons and Collin Sexton to the roster at the trade deadline, there’s little to gain from holding onto Jones in most fantasy leagues.

Jones was made available for Chicago’s last game, but he didn’t see the floor. Now, he’s been ruled out for this one. Jaden Ivey is expected to be available, and Collin Sexton could make his debut as well, which should help fill some of the guard minutes with Jones out.

Jones was made available for Tuesday’s loss to the Rockets, but he did not play. How impactful his absence would be if Jones doesn’t play on Thursday depends on the health of Josh Giddey and Ayo Dosunmu, and whether Jaden Ivey is available to make his Bulls’ debut. Giddey and Dosunmu are also listed as questionable.

Jones will dress for Tuesday’s game against the Bucks, but he isn’t expected to play, according to a report from Bulls Insider K.C. Johnson. The 26-year-old point guard technically beat his two-week injury timetable. His next chance to actually play will be Thursday when the Bulls take on the Raptors.

Jones has been out since the middle of January with a left hamstring strain. That the 26-year-old point guard was upgraded to questionable Tuesday is a great for his pending return, though it’s still up in the air if he’ll be available against the Bucks. Jones would likely play lite minutes off the bench if he’s active.

Jones was added to the injury report as doubtful earlier, but he is now expected to be sidelined until at least Feb. 6 with a left hamstring strain. Ayo Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter should see a bump in minutes off the bench, but Josh Giddey and Coby White should fill most of the backcourt minutes.

Jones has been a consistent producer in recent weeks, but he isn’t expected to play against Boston. Josh Giddey (hamstring) is probable after returning to the lineup on Thursday, but he will likely still have his minutes managed. Ayo Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter should see a bump in minutes.

This was a seventh straight start for Jones, and while the assists have come consistently, the points have been up and down. However, he had an insanely hot night as a scorer, which led to a new career high for points. Jones will continue to start and be worth rostering as long as Josh Giddey (hamstring) remains out, but with Coby White (calf) likely back against the Jazz, Jones isn’t going to have a repeat of this performance in the near future.

With Josh Giddey (hamstring) set to miss at least two weeks and Coby White (calf) out at least one week, Jones filled one of the open starting spots in Chicago. He was excellent as a starter earlier this season and picked up right where he left off with an uber-efficient double-double in the win. Jones is available in 77 percent of Yahoo! leagues but should be considered a must-roster player as long as Giddey and White are sidelined.

Jones was one of several Bulls reserve players to contribute in a meaningful way on Friday. He came off the bench and tied a team-high in points, which included seven big fourth-quarter points to help the Bulls complete a come-from-behind win. Jones didn’t make his usual impact as a passer, but he’ll have a chance to put together a more balanced performance on Saturday against the Bucks.

Despite being under a limit of 24 minutes, Jones still managed to provide solid value off the bench. Over the last two weeks, he has been an eighth-round player in nine-cat formats. The presence of Josh Giddey and Coby White in the rotation makes Jones a challenging player to trust full-time in most fantasy leagues, but he’s an automatic streamer when one of those two is unavailable.

Jones is good to go after being upgraded from questionable to probable earlier Friday. With Chicago’s perimeter rotation intact since Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) is available, Jones offers a limited fantasy ceiling. Also, he will be limited to 24 minutes on Friday.

Good news for Jones as he’s been upgraded to probable ahead of the Bulls matchup with the Cavaliers on Friday. The 25-year-old point guard had 11 points and 11 assists in the win over the Cavaliers on Wednesday. Even with Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) expected back, Jones should see 20-25 minutes off the bench and he’s been productive lately.

Jones, who recorded his second double-double of the season in Wednesday’s win over the Cavaliers, is dealing with left hamstring tightness. If he can’t play and the Bulls remain without Ayo Dosunmu, there may be a few more minutes for Dalen Terry or Jevon Carter. Neither player is worth streaming in that scenario.

Wednesday’s performance was a reminder that Jones doesn’t necessarily need to start to provide solid fantasy value. He finished with his second double-double of the season, matching his season-high in the assist category. Of course, it should be noted that Chicago did not have Ayo Dosunmu (thumb), which freed up additional minutes on the perimeter. Jones has played at least 24 minutes in each of his last eight appearances, so playing time has not been a significant issue in recent games.

After missing the Bulls’ last three games, Jones is good to go in Charlotte. However, he will be limited to 24 minutes. That restriction, combined with the presence of starters Josh Giddey and Coby White, makes Jones a player who can be left on the waiver wire in most leagues.

Jones practiced fully on Thursday for the second straight day and is now expected to suit up on Friday. He has missed three games, and the Bulls can certainly use him with both Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) and Kevin Huerter (hamstring) still out.

Jones has missed Chicago’s last two games with an ankle injury and is likely to miss a third on Sunday. While Dalen Terry and Jevon Carter have received bumps to their minutes, neither has been consistent enough to be fully trusted in deep fantasy leagues.

Jones did not play in Wednesday’s loss to the Nets and appears likely to miss another game on Friday. How impactful his absence would be depends on Coby White’s availability, who also sat out Chicago’s most recent game. Dalen Terry and Jevon Carter played 18 and 16 minutes off the bench, respectively, and could take on similar roles on Friday.

With Coby White and Kevin Huerter also out, the Bulls will be extremely thin in the backcourt on Wednesday behind starters Josh Giddey and Ayo Dosunmu. Jevon Carter should play rotation minutes, but he is not worth the risk in most fantasy leagues.

Jones was initially listed as probable but has since been downgraded. Coby White (calf) and Kevin Huerter (hamstring) are out, which means Ayo Dosunmu is already starting. Jones’ absence will likely open the door for Jevon Carter to play the backup guard minutes, though Dosunmu and Giddey should be on the floor for most of the game, which won’t leave enough time for Carter to be worth streaming.

Jones is expected to suit up, and he is coming off scoring a season-high 20 points on Monday with Coby White (calf) out and Kevin Huerter (hamstring) exiting after six minutes. With both sidelined again, Jones should be in for a productive night.

With Kevin Huerter exiting Monday’s game after six minutes with an adductor injury and Coby White (calf) already out, more minutes were available to Jones. He made the most of his opportunity, recording his second 20-point game of the season and first since November 10. Jones’ fantasy value in the short term depends on the availability of White and Huerter. If those two remain out, Jones will be worth streaming for the rest of Week 7, with the Bulls playing three more games.

Jones was one of five Bulls to score in double figures in this game, and he matched Josh Giddey as the team’s leading scorer. He didn’t get the starting nod with Coby White (calf) sidelined for the second leg of this back-to-back, with Ayo Dosunmu (15/4/4) getting the bump. However, Jones was still able to make an impact. However, Bulls coach Billy Donovan said before the game that this was the final back-to-back that they’re planning for White to be held out of, so the opportunities for Jones and Dosunmu to play more minutes may be limited.
