Jones will be worth a look in all leagues whenever Ja Morant sits out for rest or injury. Expect Morant back for the next game Jones should be left off DFS lineups.

Tyus Jones recorded nine points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3PT), seven assists, three steals and one rebound across 28 minutes in Saturday's 126-112 loss to the Jazz.

Jones started for the Grizzlies and posted a solid performance all around. He is averaging 6.1 points, 1.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 0.9 steals across 22 games this year. Jones mainly contributes in steals and assists, he can be used as a streamer in all league formats. The Grizzlies next scheduled game is Monday, away against the Warriors.

Tyus Jones got the start on Monday in place of the injured Ja Morant but failed to produce scoring only two points (1-for-6 FG) with six assists, three rebounds, and one block in 31 minutes.

Jones certainly has the edge in minutes over De'Anthony Melton but Melton outplayed Jones in this game. At this point, lean towards Melton as a waiver wire add this week.

Tyus Jones produced 12 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven assists, four rebounds, one steal and a block across 25 minutes in the Grizzlies' 115-107 win over the Timberwolves on Sunday.

Jones shined in the starting lineup with Ja Morant (back) sidelined indefinitely. The former has been a steady contributor when given playing time, averaging 7.2 assists per-36-minutes in his five year career. He's sure to be the most popular waiver wire add this week, paying dividends to fantasy owners lucky enough to snag him.

Tyus Jones totaled 0 points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three assists and a rebound across 18 minutes in the Grizzlies’ 119-117 win over the Hornets on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Jones had little involvement in Wednesday's gameplan, as he was mostly a non-factor in the victory. He's averaged 7.5 points and 5.0 assists across 21.7 minutes off the bench, but he's clearly behind rookie Ja Morant, who enjoys a huge usage rate in Memphis' backcourt. Jones is a nice handcuff for Morant and would presumably see heavy minutes if the former missed time for any reason.
