Herbert Jones explodes for 35 in huge win
by Seth Fisher | Pelicans Correspondent | Thu, Apr 6th 12:41pm EDT
Herbert Jones went for a career-best 35 points (11-21 FG, 5-8 3PT, 8-9 FT) in addition to seven rebounds, three assists, and three blocks in New Orleans' win against Memphis.
Fantasy Impact:
Well, OK then. In Jones' own words, his scoring effort was "an all-time high." He has met or exceeded the 20-point mark just twice all season before Wednesday. So to drop a random 35-spot in the 80th game is a jaw-dropper. Scoring has never been Jones' strong suit, but he's a stellar defender and solid rebounder -- and it often shows in the fantasy logs. Just don't count on regular outings like these next season.
