9. Tyus Jones (10)

Season stats: 14.7 MPG – 3.1 PPG – 2.0 APG – 0.3 SPG – 37.5% FG – 40% 3PT – 90% FT

Weekly stats: 13.6 MPG – 4.5 PPG – 2.0 APG – 50% FG – 80% 3PT – 100% FT

This week was a much more productive week for Tyus Jones, who seemed to quickly silence any thoughts of Aaron Brooks taking his minutes,

Jones didn’t make much of a splash in the first match up in Florida, but regained his steam with a solid 4-point, 5-assist showing in The Big Easy.

His first really exciting showing of the year came in the blowout win over Dallas, which saw Jones nail three triples.

A welcome sight for a guy who hadn’t tickled the twine from downtown yet this season.

Jones finished with a pretty poor showing in Charlotte, but his important bench play against New Orleans and Dallas help him leapfrog Shabazz Muhammad in this weeks power rankings.
