Jones will start Wednesday's game against the Nets, Tony East of Forbes.com reports. The Pacers will be extremely shorthanded in the second leg of this back-to-back set, allowing Jones to draw his second start of the season. The rookie second-rounder has logged double-digit minutes in four straight appearances (one start), averaging 5.8 points, 2.5 assists and 2.0 rebounds in 23.8 minutes per tilt during that stretch.
