Spurs' Tre Jones: Double-double against Phoenix
Rotowire
Jones provided 12 points (3-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 28 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 132-121 win over Phoenix.
With Devin Vassell (groin) limited to just 17 minutes Thursday, Jones stepped into a bigger role in the Spurs' offense and delivered his first double-double of the season. The fourth-year guard could move into the starting five should Vassell miss additional time, but even if coach Gregg Popovich elects to keep Jones as the floor general for the second unit, his production would likely increase in Vassell's absence.

Spurs' Tre Jones: Modest results Sunday
Rotowire
Jones ended with five points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal over 20 minutes during Sunday's 123-83 loss to the Clippers.
Jones played 33 minutes during Friday's win over Houston but saw a decrease in playing time Sunday with the game out of hand for most of the second half. He started in all but three of his appearances last year but has come off the bench in his first three outings during the 2023-24 campaign. However, he's still seen ample playing time as a reserve and has been involved as a passer, averaging 6.0 assists per game.

Spurs' Tre Jones: Versatile results off bench
Rotowire
Jones recorded 16 points (5-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and six assists across 25 minutes during Wednesday's 126-119 loss to the Mavericks.
Jones came off the bench during Wednesday's regular-season opener and led the team's reserves in playing time, points, rebounds and assists. He started in 65 of 68 appearances last year, but coach Gregg Popovich announced before the start of the season that Jeremy Sochan will begin the year as the Spurs' starting point guard. While Sochan performed well Wednesday, Jones should continue to have plenty of opportunities to contribute off the bench.

Spurs' Tre Jones: Set to come off bench
Rotowire
Jones is in line to begin the 2023-24 season in a bench role after coach Gregg Popovich said that Jeremy Sochan will serve as the Spurs' starting point guard, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.
Sochan started Wednesday's preseason matchup against Houston, and the lineup from that game will serve as the starting unit Opening Night. However, Jones saw ample playing time off the bench, compiling nine points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three assists, two steals, one rebound and one block in 21 minutes. Jones averaged 12.9 points, 6.6 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 29.2 minutes per game over 68 appearances (65 starts) last year. If the Spurs get off to a slow start, it's possible Jones enters the conversation to reclaim a starting role.

Spurs' Tre Jones: Plays well Monday
Rotowire
Jones recorded 12 points (3-9 FG, 1-3 3PT, 5-7 FT), six assists, four rebounds, one steal and three turnovers across 21 minutes in Monday's 122-121 preseason loss to the Thunder.
Despite poor shooting, it was a strong performance for Jones in the preseason opener, and it appears he's the favorite to start at point guard on Opening Night. He has shown strong improvements in each of his first three seasons in the NBA and should benefit from playing alongside rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama during the 2023-24 campaign.

Spurs' Tre Jones: Staying in San Antonio
Rotowire
Jones has agreed to return to the Spurs on a two-year, $20 million deal, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Jones was a restricted free agent, so the Spurs would have had the opportunity to match any offer he received from other teams. However, both parties were ultimately able to come to an agreement before that occurred. Jones started 65 of 68 appearances this past season and averaged 12.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 1.3 steals across 29.2 minutes per game. It remains to be seen what else the team does in free agency, but the 23-year-old currently projects to start at point guard next season.

Rotowire
Jones finished with 21 points (9-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 10 rebounds and 12 assists across 32 minutes during Saturday's 151-131 loss to Minnesota.
Jones' strong finish to the season continued Saturday, as he turned in the second triple-double of his career. After being in and out of the rotation following the All-Star break, Jones has now played in 12 of the past 13 games, putting up top-50 value in that time. He has been a top-100 player for the season, a range that feels about right heading into the 2023-24 season.

Spurs' Tre Jones: Another stellar outing
Rotowire

Spurs' Tre Jones: Flirts with double-double in loss
Rotowire
Jones had 20 points (7-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 115-94 loss to the Suns.
Jones was the only routine starter on the floor in the loss, as the Spurs continued to suffer from numerous injuries throughout the roster. The Duke product has been a bright spot during an otherwise dismal season for the Spurs, who traded Dejounte Murray to Atlanta and desperately needed a new floor general to step up. Jones delivered, averaging a team-high 6.4 assists per game over 65 contests.

Spurs' Tre Jones: Impressive performance overall
Rotowire
Jones contributed 17 points (8-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound, six assists and three steals in 28 minutes during Wednesday's 128-117 loss to Utah.
Though he did miss his only free-throw attempt, Jones shot the ball well in Wednesday's loss, recording his highest scoring output since mid-January. He added multiple steals for the third straight contest and recorded a half-dozen assists for the fifth time in his last six. The young guard had suffered a bit of a production slump after returning from a foot injury almost a month ago, but over the last two weeks he seems to have returned to early season form again, which is great for those fantasy managers who held onto him.
