Clippers' Derrick Jones: Serviceable performance in win
Jones amassed 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-2 FT), one rebound, two blocks and one steal over 23 minutes during Thursday's 117-83 victory over Denver in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Jones continues to play an important, albeit modest, role for the Clippers, scoring double-digits for the first time in the past five games. His two-way ability often proves invaluable, and while it isn't always reflected by his numbers, you can be sure the coaching staff are very thankful to have Jones in their rotation.

Jones has tallied 15 or more points in 12 outings this season, doing so for the second time in March.

Clippers' Derrick Jones: Scores nine points in return
Jones (groin) tallied nine points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one block across 18 minutes in Friday's 105-95 win over the Knicks.
Jones was back in action following a three-game absence due to a groin injury, but he was used off the bench for just the seventh time in 58 appearances on the season while Nicolas Batum drew the start at power forward. Though Batum won't necessarily be in store for a long-term stay on the top unit, Jones may not get his starting spot back either. The Clippers will eventually get Norman Powell back from a hamstring injury, and he's a likelier bet than Jones to start alongside James Harden, Kris Dunn, Kawhi Leonard and Ivica Zubac moving forward. Over his seven games as a reserve, Jones is averaging 9.7 points, 2.1 rebounds and 0.4 assists in 20.8 minutes per contest.
