Pelicans' Herbert Jones: To play similar role
Jones continues to provide New Orleans with elite perimeter defense and positional versatility, making him one of the NBA's premier role players.
While Jones' offensive responsibilities remain modest, his ability to contribute steals, blocks and efficient complementary production keeps him fantasy relevant. His role as the Pelicans' top defensive wing should remain unchanged heading into 2026-27.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Not playing Sunday
Jones (rest) is out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
Jones will end the season on the sidelines for rest purposes, as the Pelicans will assess other players on the roster. Jones featured in 56 games for the Pelicans in the 2025-26 regular season, averaging 8.9 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.6 steals across 28.4 minutes per contest. He also shot 38.3 percent from the floor, and in almost every statistic, this was a step in the wrong direction compared to the 2024-25 campaign.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Iffy for Friday
Jones (rest) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Celtics.
Jones may sit out the Pelicans' penultimate game of the season for rest purposes. His absence would open up additional playing time for Derik Queen, Micah Peavy and Jordan Hawkins.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Not expected to play Tuesday
Head coach James Borrego said that Jones will be in uniform for Tuesday's game against the Jazz, but he doesn't expect him to play, Erin Summers of the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network reports.
Zion Williamson and Saddiq Bey are also expected to sit out Tuesday's game, which should result in big minutes for Derik Queen and Micah Peavy. It'll be interesting to see if Jones plays Friday in Boston.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Held to 13 minutes in loss
Jones recorded three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 13 minutes during Friday's 117-113 loss to Sacramento.
Jones saw his role reduced in a big way Friday, as the Pelicans elected to lean more heavily on their bench players such as Derik Queen (28 minutes) and Micah Peavy (32 minutes). New Orleans doesn't have much to play for after being eliminated from postseason contention, so it seems the club is aiming to develop younger talent down the stretch of the regular season. Still, Jones has continued to be part of the starting lineup, so unless the team reports otherwise, he figures to be a bigger part of the game plan heading into Sunday's tilt against the Magic.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Notches 11 points in loss
Jones racked up 11 points (4-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four assists and one block over 27 minutes during Thursday's 129-108 loss to the Pistons.
Although the Pelicans were missing Trey Murphy (ankle), Jones managed just 11 points in the loss. He remains a low-end fantasy asset, posting averages of 10.3 points, 3.6 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 2.0 three-pointers over his last eight games.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Locked into significant minutes
Jones provided 11 points (4-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Thursday's 105-99 victory over the Clippers.
The Pelicans appear to have a revolving door at the center position, and Jones' versatility should keep him cemented in the starting lineup going forward. Jones has averaged 10.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 2.2 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 31.2 minutes per tilt in his last five games, offering him some low-end fantasy appeal in nine-category setups.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Solid line in win
Jones notched 16 points (6-9 FG, 4-6 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 122-111 win over Toronto.
Jones put together a solid line and was on fire from beyond the arc. Overall, he's been a hit-or-miss fantasy asset this season with averages of 9.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.4 three-pointers on 38.9 percent shooting.

Jones has scored in double figures in two straight games for the first time since mid-December. Since returning to action at the end of January, Jones' production has been modest; he's averaging 8.3 points, 3.6 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.6 steals while shooting 36.9 percent from the field.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Shooting woes continue
Jones notched two points (1-7 FG, 0-4 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists and four steals over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 110-101 loss to the Lakers.
Jones continues to struggle offensively, scoring in single digits for the fourth time in his past five outings. During this span, Jones has averaged 6.8 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 2.4 steals in 29.4 minutes per tilt while shooting a paltry 29.3 percent from the field.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Records five steals
Jones produced five points (1-8 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and five steals in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 113-109 victory over the Warriors.
Jones recorded at least five steals for the second time this season, and he snatched eight against Houston on Dec. 18. Jones has been a little underwhelming for the most part in recent weeks, however, as he's averaging 7.3 points, 3.4 assists, 3.1 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 30.9 minutes per contest.

Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Rough shooting continues
Jones registered eight points (3-11 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one block across 30 minutes during Monday's 120-94 win over the Kings.
With Jordan Poole totally phased out of the New Orleans rotation, Jones seems to be locked in as the top shooting guard the rest of the way. Jones still appears to be knocking off some rust after missing extended time with an ankle sprain in January. Over his last nine outings, Jones has averaged 7.6 points, 3.7 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 29.5 minutes per game while shooting a poor 24.4 percent from deep.
