Spencer Jones News: Big night from downtown

Jones produced 16 points (6-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt), five rebounds, one block and one steal across 37 minutes during Tuesday's 115-107 loss to the Lakers.

It was his best performance from three-point range since Dec. 29, when he went 5-for-5 against the Heat. Jones has held down a starting role the last couple of months for the injury-depleted Nuggets, but it hasn't translated into consistent production. The second-year forward has played 28.1 minutes in his past 28 games, averaging just 8.1 points, 4.0 boards, 1.3 threes, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals over that stretch.
