Tyus Jones: The starter the Timberwolves need

Tyus Jones should be the starting point guard.

Yes, you read that right! Tyus Jones should be starting for the Minnesota Timberwolves in the near future.

In his two years in the NBA, Jones hasn’t put up outstanding numbers, as he’s only averaging 3.8 points, 2.7 assists, and 1.2 rebounds per game. Of course, this also comes with Jones not getting the minutes that he truly deserves, as he only averages 13.9 minutes per game.

In 2015-16, his playing time was 15.5 minutes per game and that number dipped to 12.9 this year under Tom Thibodeau.
