It was the first time each of the Jones brothers gave their first nod to one of the meetings. And it&#8217;s safe to say that both were disappointed.<\/p>\n<p>They both led their respective teams in points and assists.<\/p>\n<p>Tyus Jones, the 2014-15 one-and-done national champion with the Blue Devils, had 24 points, 6 assists and 3 steals in 35 minutes of action for the Grizzlies (27-13). He has averaged 10.8 points and 4.8 assists per game this season and started in place of Jamorant (who has a sore right thigh).<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\"\/>\n<p>After two seasons as Duke Basketball&#8217;s floor general and 2020 ACC Player and Defender of the Year, Torre Jones had 18 points and 7 dimes in 30 minutes.  The 23-year-old has started all but one of his games for the Spurs this season (13-28) and is averaging 13.3 points and 6.4 assists.<\/p>\n<p>Afterwards, they showed brotherhood around midcourt.<\/p>\n<section class=\"m-in-content-recommendation m-detail--in-content-recommendation h-isolated-styles mm-component-stack--is-body-item\">\n<p><span>scroll to continue<\/span><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<p>Afterwards, they summed up their impressions of their unforgettable experience with the media:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tyus Jones: &#8220;Honestly, it&#8217;s a dreamy moment.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Torre Jones: &#8220;There is no other opponent in the world that I want to face first.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>They then took to Twitter to express their gratitude for the evening:<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"\/>\n<p>Fortunately for fans of the Jones brothers, the Memphis Grizzlies will resume at 8 p.m. Wednesday when they once again host the San Antonio Spurs.
