Los Angeles Clippers forward Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) is not listed on the injury report for Thursday's Game 6 against the Denver Nuggets. He appeared to have suffered a knee injury late in Game 5, but it seems that it was not a serious issue. Jones Jr. had a solid regular season with the Clippers, but his production has declined in the playoffs. The former NBA Slam Dunk Contest champion has averaged 6.2 points and 1.8 rebounds in 19.0 minutes. Over the past two games, Jones Jr. has logged only 29 total minutes, suggesting that Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue has begun to lose trust in him.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Derrick Jones Jr. (groin) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the New York Knicks. It appears Jones will be back in the mix after missing each of the last three games due to a groin issue. Jones has been playing a bigger role in the rotation lately with Norman Powell (hamstring) being sidelined. The expectation is that he'll continue playing 20-plus minutes until Powell returns. Bogdan Bogdanovic and Kris Dunn could lose some playing time with Jones getting back in the mix on Friday.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Derrick Jones Jr. (groin) will sit out a second consecutive game on Tuesday against the Phoenix Suns. He is battling a right groin strain, and given the nature of the injury, there is a strong possibility that Jones Jr. will also not be ready to return on Wednesday when the Clippers face the Detroit Pistons. Bogdan Bogdanovic and Amir Coffey are set to receive more work on Tuesday, especially with Norman Powell (hamstring) also sidelined. Bogdanovic is the more attractive fantasy piece of the two. Since moving to L.A., he has averaged 10.6 points and 3.1 assists in 24.9 minutes.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Derrick Jones Jr. will move into the starting five ahead of Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Head coach Ty Lue has decided to tweak his starting unit and move Jones into the starting unit on Wednesday. Kris Dunn will head to the bench after posting a dud during his 25 minutes of action on Monday. Jones has been decent this season, but he isn't someone worth starting in most fantasy formats right now. So far, Jones is averaging 9.7 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 0.9 assists in 24 minutes per game this season.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Derrick Jones Jr. (hand) is not expected to miss time despite making an early exit against Miami on Monday. Jones Jr. hurt his hand and left the contest with 10:20 to go in the final quarter. However, Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue told reporters postgame that Jones Jr. was "fine" and available to return to the game. The former dunk champion finished Monday's game with nine points in 16 minutes. Jones Jr.'s fantasy stock recently took a hit with Kawhi Leonard's season debut. He has come off the bench in all three games that Leonard has played. But we should see Jones Jr. back among the starters as soon as Wednesday as the Clippers head into a back-to-back set, and Leonard, who remains on a minutes restriction, will likely get one night off.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Derrick Jones Jr. (hamstring) will return from a two-game absence on Thursday versus Dallas. The 27-year-old suffered a right hamstring strain on Dec. 8 but has made a quick recovery. Jones Jr. has been a regular starter for the Clippers all year, averaging 10.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.3 steals in 25.0 minutes. However, the high-flying forward will have a limited role against his former team, so managers won't get full value out of Jones Jr. on Thursday.

Los Angeles Clippers small forward Derrick Jones Jr. (head) is reportedly okay after getting hurt in Tuesday's preseason clash versus Brooklyn. Jones Jr. was hit to the head in the second quarter, exiting the court while holding a towel to his face. Shortly after the incident, Jones Jr. was ruled out for the rest of the game with a head contusion. However, The Athletic's Law Murray has reported that Jones Jr. is "fine" and there shouldn't be anything to worry about going forward. The eight-year veteran is projected to be a starter for the Clippers this season after inking a three-year, $30 million contract as a free agent in the summer.

Dallas Mavericks forward Derrick Jones Jr. demonstrated perfect three-point shooting in Sunday's Game 3 win over the Timberwolves, hitting 3-for-3 from deep to finish with 11 points. These are his first made threes in the series after Jones Jr. went 0-for-5 in the first two games. On Sunday, he also recorded a pair of rebounds and assists while producing a game-best plus-15 rating in 33 minutes on the floor. Jones Jr. has been a solid two-way contributor for the Mavericks during their playoff run, but he's been quiet in the matchup against Minnesota as Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic have taken over. Through three games, Jones Jr. has averaged 7.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.7 assists.

Dallas Mavericks forward Derrick Jones Jr. (shoulder) is regarded as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against Indiana. The high-flyer from UNLV might have to skip a very favorable matchup due to a left shoulder strain. The timing of the injury couldn't be worse, as Jones Jr. has just had one of his best outings of the season with a 21-point, seven-rebound effort against Philadelphia. Jones Jr.'s absence would open the door for Dante Exum and Tim Hardaway Jr. to make a bigger mark off the Dallas bench. A lot of big fantasy lines are expected from the clash at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, as Indiana is ranked No. 1 in pace but sits among the worst defensive teams in the league.

Dallas Mavericks forward Derrick Jones Jr. (wrist) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Jones is out after taking a hard fall during Friday's contest. Hopefully, his absence is precautionary and Jones won't be forced to miss significant time. The Mavs will be shorthanded with Dante Exum (knee) also ruled out for this game. The expectation is that Jaden Hardy, Seth Curry, and Tim Hardaway Jr. will all see increased minutes. Between them all, Hardaway is the best streaming option for Saturday.

Dallas Mavericks small forward Derrick Jones Jr. (quadriceps) might be forced to sit out a second consecutive game on Thursday versus Minnesota, as the team considers him questionable. Jones Jr. injured his right quadriceps Monday versus Memphis and couldn't take the court Tuesday versus the Lakers. He was playing his best basketball of the season before getting hurt, so it's a bitter blow for the 26-year-old, who's been a starter in 21 of his 22 appearances in 2023-24. Grant Williams took Jones Jr.'s position in the starting unit as he returned from injury on Tuesday, while Dante Exum and Jaden Hardy should also continue to benefit if Jones Jr. doesn't return on Thursday.

Dallas Mavericks small forward Derrick Jones Jr. could begin his debut campaign in Texas as a starter. According to NBA insider Marc Stein, Jones Jr. "played himself into contention for the starting berth" during the team's preseason road trip through Abu Dhabi and Europe. The 26-year-old made the biggest impression in the team's final outing against Real Madrid, totaling eight points on 4-for-6 shooting and grabbing five rebounds in 18 minutes on the floor. Getting to roll with the starters would be a big boost for Jones Jr.'s fantasy stock after the former NBA dunk champion spent two years warming the Bulls bench. Jones Jr. has averaged 7.5 points and 4.1 rebounds for his career as a starter.

Chicago Bulls forward Derrick Jones Jr. has decided to decline his $3.3 million player option for next season. The 26-year-old is now set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer. Jones has been a solid depth piece for the Bulls over the last two seasons. He averaged 5.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 0.5 assists over 62 games this past season. His athleticism is probably his biggest asset on the court. However, it's tough to imagine him finding a team that allows him to have enough minutes to become relevant in fantasy leagues.

Chicago Bulls forward Derrick Jones Jr. said that he plans on picking up his player option for the 2023-24 season to stay with the team. The seven-year veteran was very far off of the fantasy radar this past season as he averaged 5.0 points and 2.4 rebounds per game while shooting 50.0% from the floor and 33.8% from deep. He played the least amount of minutes since his second year in the league and will probably return to the same role unless the Bulls decide to blow up the team and enter tank mode next year.

Chicago Bulls forward Derrick Jones Jr. (groin) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This is bad timing with the Bulls already having a long list of injured players. It's their last game before the All-Star break, so possibly they plan on playing it safe and resting most of their banged up players. Nonetheless, Dalen Terry should see more minutes in the rotation with Jones on the sideline. He's not an exciting fantasy option, but should see a bigger role on Thursday.

Chicago Bulls forward Derrick Jones Jr. (eye) is available for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Jones is back in action and should serve as the backup power forward to Patrick Williams. The Bulls are still without Javonte Green (knee), which means both Jones and Williams should see increased roles. This season, Williams has been providing 14th round value in 9-cat leagues. It's tough for him to have a ton of success offensively starting alongside Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, and Nikola Vucevic. That being said, Williams is far from a must-start player, but does have some streaming value right now.

Chicago Bulls center Derrick Jones Jr. (finger) has been given the green light to suit up for Saturday's contest against the Thunder. Jones had been sidelined since Jan. 12 due to a fractured finger, having started each of the past six games that he has appeared. The layoff will likely mean that Jones is not yet a DFS commodity, but how he acclimates to the Bulls' rotation will be telling as it pertains to his season-long viability entering the second half. Despite averaging just 6.3 PPG across 17.2 minutes per outing, Jones has shot a career-best 58.2% overall in his first season with Chicago.

Chicago Bulls center Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) will miss at least the next four to six weeks of action after sustaining a bone bruise in his right knee during Wednesday's loss to the Nets. Jones, who started the past six games for the Bulls, has failed to log consistent enough minutes to emerge as a season-long fantasy asset, with his absence further testing the team's frontcourt depth. Troy Brown Jr., Alfonzo McKinnieand Marko Simonovic are all candidates to log more minutes without Jones in the mix, although none of the trio stands to emerge as a option in most leagues. Despite shooting a career-best 58.2 percent overall, Jones and his 6.3 point-per-game average can be dropped to the waiver wire in all formats as he heals up.

Chicago Bulls forward Derrick Jones Jr. (hamstring) is available for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He has missed each of the last three games while dealing with a hamstring strain. That being said, the Bulls might limit Jones during his first game back. The Hawks are extremely shorthanded, so they might not need much from Jones to win this contest. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Jones to bring much to the table during his first game back on the court. He is far from a must-add right now, but could have some deep league appeal.

Chicago Bulls forward Derrick Jones Jr. (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday's bout versus the visiting Hawks. Jones has been plagued by a left hamstring strain, which relegated him to just five minutes throughout his previous five games. The team can certainly use his services, especially with Alex Caruso (foot) out and Lonzo Ball sidelined by COVID-19 health and safety protocols. Nonetheless, if Jones can make it back, Troy Brown Jr. would likely see a reduction in minutes.
