Jones is an elite decision maker and floor general, exactly like Nimby, except Jones has done it in the NBA. It's no coincidence some of Flagg's best minutes have come alongside Nimbhardt. Jones will make Flagg's life MUCH better.
Jones is also one of the best ball security guards in the NBA, period. This team has been plagued by turnovers and that will change dramatically. I expect him to start until Kyrie returns and he could be a long-term keeper as one of the best backup PGs in the league.
Yeah, he has typically been a low turnover guard. Although, some of his distractors say this is because he never takes any chances. He has also had a nice floater.
It will be interesting to see how the point guard minutes are split up. Do they still start without a point guard? Nemby may run out of time if not converted, but it will be interesting to see the rotation.
