Jones contributed 15 points (6-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Sunday's 128-116 loss to the Knicks.
Jones has had a terrific start to the campaign, and he's likely to hold onto his current role until Coby White (calf) is able to return -- White is due to be re-evaluated soon. With the way Jones has been playing, the Bulls may want to look for ways to keep him heavily involved in the rotation.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Stuffs stat sheet in win
Rotowire
Jones registered 13 points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and five steals across 29 minutes during Saturday's 110-98 victory over the Magic.
Jones wasn't overly aggressive on the offensive end but still managed to score in double figures. He also packed the stat sheet with his effort as a facilitator and on the defensive end. Jones has shown that he can provide value for fantasy managers in various ways through the first two games of the season, totaling 25 points, 16 assists and eight steals in back-to-back victories. The 25-year-old should continue to see his name in the starting lineup until Coby White (calf) is cleared to return.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Hands out eight assists
Rotowire
Jones finished with 12 points (5-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, eight assists and three steals across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 115-111 victory over Detroit.
Jones started alongside Josh Giddey on Wednesday and helped the Bulls secure the win on Opening Night. With Coby White (calf) sidelined for at least a couple weeks, Jones is likely to enjoy a boost in fantasy upside for the foreseeable future as an excellent source of points, assists and steals.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Tallies four steals in spot start
Rotowire
Jones amassed eight points (3-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists and four steals in 24 minutes during Thursday's preseason win over Minnesota.
Jones moved into the starting lineup after missing Tuesday's preseason game due to an ongoing foot concern. While any injury to begin the season is concerning, it doesn't sound as though this is too serious. Following an impressive end to the 2024-25 season, Jones may very well find himself serving as the primary backup behind Josh Giddey.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Will play Thursday
Rotowire
Jones (foot) will play in Thursday's exhibition against the Timberwolves, Joel Lorenzi of The Athletic reports.
Billy Donovan did say that Jones will be operating with some minutes restrictions, so it sounds like the foot issue isn't quite 100 percent yet. Still, it's encouraging that he's suiting up for a meaningless game, so barring a setback, he should be fine for Opening Night.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Inks deal with Chicago
Rotowire
Jones (foot) agreed to a three-year, $24 million deal with the Bulls on Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Jones will return to Chicago after initially being acquired by the team via trade in February. The 25-year-old point guard appeared in 18 regular-season games (nine starts) with the Bulls in 2024-25, averaging 11.5 points, 4.9 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.1 steals while shooting 57.2 percent from the field across 25.2 minutes per game. Jones missed the team's final 12 regular-season outings after suffering a sprained left foot, though he's expected to be ready for training camp.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Ditches walking boot
Rotowire
Bulls head coach Billy Donovan said prior to Wednesday's 109-90 loss to the Heat in the Eastern Conference Play-In Tournament that Jones (foot) is no longer using a walking boot, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.
Donovan added that Jones was unlikely to be available for the first round of the playoffs had the Bulls advanced past the Play-In Tournament, but it became a moot point once the team was eliminated with Wednesday's loss. After being acquired from the Spurs ahead of the trade deadline in February, Jones appeared in 18 games (nine starts) and averaged 11.5 points, 4.9 assists, 3.2 rebounds, 1.1 steals in 25.2 minutes per game while shooting 57.2 percent from the field. The veteran floor general missed the final 12 games of the regular season after suffering a left midfoot sprain, but assuming he experiences no setbacks in his recovery over the summer, he should be back to full health for training camp. Jones will become an unrestricted free agent in July and will look to catch on with a team with a need for a backup point guard.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Iffy to play Saturday
Rotowire
Jones (foot) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Lakers.
Jones sustained the left midfoot sprain during Thursday's win over the Kings, and he could miss his first game since Feb. 8. The 25-year-old point guard has made nine consecutive starts, averaging 14.9 points, 7.1 assists, 4.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals across 33.2 minutes per contest.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Suffers foot injury Thursday
Rotowire
Jones exited Thursday's 128-116 win over the Kings with 1:59 remaining in the fourth quarter due to a left midfoot sprain, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Jones posted 15 points (6-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven assists, four rebounds and two steals across 33 minutes before checking out of the contest while the Bulls held a 12-point lead in the final two minutes, but his early exit didn't seem like it was merely out of precaution. He hobbled to the bench and was sent in for X-rays in the locker room, which came back negative. Though Jones isn't dealing with any structural damage to his foot, the sprain could end up costing him some game action. Josh Giddey (ankle) should be back in action for Saturday's game against the Lakers and will likely start at point guard if Jones is ruled out, while Kevin Huerter would presumably continue to handle a 30-plus-minute role on the wing.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Stuffs stat sheet in victory
Rotowire
Jones posted 18 points (6-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, six assists and three steals in 36 minutes during Thursday's 116-110 win over the Nets.
The 25-year-old has started in five consecutive contests due to Lonzo Ball (wrist) being sidelined, and he tied Kevin Huerter for the team's second-highest mark in scoring behind Coby White (31 points). Additionally, Jones finished with a team high in steals, marking his ninth outing with multiple swipes on the season. The fifth-year point guard has averaged 14.0 points, 6.0 assists, 5.4 rebounds and 1.2 steals across 33.4 minutes per contest in that five-game span. He has been efficient during his stint in the starting lineup, shooting 50.0 percent from the field and 50.0 percent from three-point range.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Receives spot start vs. Cavs

Bulls' Tre Jones: Plays well against Indiana
Rotowire
Jones registered 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-1 FT) and six assists across 27 minutes during Sunday's 127-112 loss to the Pacers.
Ayo Dosunmu will undergo season-ending surgery to address left shoulder instability, opening the door for Jones to play a larger role going forward. He made the most of his minutes Sunday and is picking up steam as a potential pickup in standard formats if he can keep up the momentum. Especially for fantasy managers in need of assists and steals.

Bulls' Tre Jones: Supplies season-high 16 points
Rotowire
Jones finished Wednesday's 122-117 loss to the Clippers with 16 points (7-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 18 minutes off the bench.
The 16 points were a season high for Jones, topping the 15 he delivered in the final game before the All-Star break. Those are the only two times he's scored in double digits since joining the Bulls, however, and the 25-year-old point guard is struggling to find his footing with his new club. Over seven contests since being traded from San Antonio, Jones has yet to play more than 19 minutes off the second unit, averaging 7.4 points, 2.3 assists, 2.0 boards and 1.0 steals in 16.6 minutes a game.
