Derrick Jones Jr. in the starting lineup for the Suns
Phoenix Suns forward Derrick Jones Jr. is in the starting lineup against the Boston Celtics on Friday.
What It Means:
Jones hurt his wrist on Thursday and needed X-rays. However, with T.J. Warren out another game, the Suns need the rookie in their lineup. Don't expect him to play extended minutes with Jarell Eddie and Jared Dudley earning extra time. None of them are worthy of playing in any fantasy format.
Jones is averaging 3.5 points and 1.6 rebounds per game while posting a -0.2 nERD rating, ranking him 202nd out of 478 NBA players.
