Jones Injures Leg in Nov. 3 Win vs. 76ers

Monday, Nov. 17

According to Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle, Houston Rockets head coach Kevin McHale admitted that he has no idea when the 22-year-old power forward will return from injury:

Jones hasn't played since a Nov. 3 win over the Philadelphia 76ers. He's appeared in four games this season, averaging 14 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per contest. Donatas Motiejunas has been tasked with starting in Jones' stead.     

The Rockets haven't labored much with Jones out of the lineup and as long as James Harden and Dwight Howard are healthy, the team won't suffer a major drop.

One of Houston's biggest issues, however, is depth, at least when compared with other NBA title contenders. Losing a player like Jones forces McHale to dig deeper into his somewhat thin bench.
