Ignore his worst category (scoring) and he's worth -1.06.
One of the league's cleanest steals sources — 1.5 a night with wing versatility and an 82% line — and the scoring hardly matters at this price. Games are the honest risk: we project only the low 50s, though his misses have come in chunks rather than chronic drips, so there's upside to the number. A perfect punt-points piece.
Herbert Jones enters 2026-27 at #173 on our board — Round 15 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 9.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 28.2 minutes a night. The value is built on steals and turnovers, with scoring the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-scoring builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 53 games, which is priced into his draft value.
