The incident happened with 17.6 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter of Saturday's 99-84 Toronto home victory over the Cavaliers, which snapped Cleveland's 10-game win streak to open the playoffs.
The Cavaliers still have a 2-1 lead over the Raptors in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference finals with game four -- the contest Jones will miss -- on Monday at Toronto.
