Tre Jones saw some court time, made the most of it with 2 FGs for 4 pts, 1 assist and 1 steal.
This is really refreshing. I wrote Jackson off, because he was given significant opportunity in NO and just didn't perform. He played over 1900 minutes across two years and his advanced metrics were awful (and he actually got slightly worse going into his sophomore season).
Happy that he's playing better, although his efficiency numbers still aren't ideal. With the Pistons, he has certainly bought himself more time and hope he continues to take advantage of it.
