Dahntay Jones will get the start in place of Danny Granger (illness) in Sunday's game against New York. |
Jones got the nod over Brandon Rush and while he's capable of occasionally putting up some decent lines Paul George is the better option for you fantasy vultures out there. |

| Sat Feb 12 2011 | 01:40 | Dahntay Jones explodes for 19 points in 4th |
Dahntay Jones went off for all 19 of his points in the fourth quarter of Friday's win over the Wolves, hitting 6-of-7 shots from the field (including two threes) with one rebound and two assists in 19 minutes off the bench. |
It's the second time in four games that he has led the Pacers in scoring, but we're not overly excited here. He plays in a crowded wing rotation and needs to earn more consistent minutes before we're biting. |
| Sun Feb 6 2011 | 14:45 | Jones scores season high 18 in win over Nets |
Dahntay Jones had a season high 18 points to lead the Pacers on Sunday in their win over the Nets. |
Jones was solid from the floor shooting 7-of-10 but didn't contribute much else. This was a nice performance from Jones but don't bank on this kind of stat line happening with regularity. |
| Thu Nov 4 2010 | 13:20 | Jones will continue to be on block |
The Pacers will continue to try and trade Dahntay Jones, according to the Indianapolis Star. |
The Pacers have been trying to trade Jones for months. They may have to wait until the trade deadline to get something done. Jones saw his first action of the season in Wednesday's blowout loss to the Sixers. |

| Fri Oct 22 2010 | 23:29 | Dahntay Jones out of rotation for Pacers |
Dahntay Jones, who got off to a hot start for the Pacers a year ago, has fallen completely out of the rotation this year. |
He played one minute on Friday when the Pacers lost Mike Dunleavy and were without T.J. Ford and Danny Granger. |
| Tue Oct 19 2010 | 09:58 | Jones remains on trading block |
Dahntay Jones remains on the trading block, according to the Indianapolis Star. |
Jones doesn't shoot the 3-ball so he doesn't fit with coach Jim O'Brien. He's behind James Posey and Paul George on the depth chart. |

| Thu Oct 14 2010 | 15:47 | Pacers trying to move Dahntay, Solo in trade |
The Pacers are said to be trying to move Dahntay Jones and Solomon Jones in a two-for-one deal in an effort to get their roster down to 15 players. |
The Jones boys aren't going to bring a lot in return, but then again, the Pacers probably aren't asking for much. |

| Tue Sep 21 2010 | 09:46 | Jones on the trading block? |
Beat writer Mike Wells speculates that Dahntay Jones could be traded before the season starts. |
Jones is a tenacious defender and solid glue guy, but coach Jim O'Brien wants everyone on his team to shoot the trey. Jones can't do that. The Pacers are trying to clear a roster spot for second-round pick Magnum Rolle. |

| Sun Apr 11 2010 | 10:44 | Dahntay needs to work on perimeter shot |
Dahntay Jones' up-and-down role this season is the result of his shaky perimeter shooting. |
"I like to space the court," Pacers coach Jim O'Brien said. "If we were to get a point guard that can really space the court, shoot the 3, I think you can get away with having a wing that doesn't space the court." Jones is shooting just 4-of-32 (12.5%) from downtown this season. |

| Sat Apr 10 2010 | 22:29 | Pacers' swingman Jones has 18 pts off bench |
Pacers swingman Dahntay Jones came out of nowhere for 18 points on Saturday, making 6-of-12 FGs and 6-of-6 FTs in over 31 minutes. |
Jones had three DNP-CDs in the previous five games, and clearly shouldn't be relied upon for fantasy purposes. His increased activity held Mike Dunleavy to just four points in 15 minutes. |
