2024 Fantasy Outlook
Jones appeared to be on track for one of the best years of her career in 2023 but suffered a ruptured Achilles after just 13 games. Before her injury, she averaged 15.9 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.8 steals in 31.7 minutes per game, all career-best marks. The 28-year-old has been incredibly efficient from the floor in recent years, converting 58.1 percent of her field-goal attempts over the past four seasons. She re-signed with Connecticut this summer on a one-year, $212,000 deal -- an indication that the team believes she'll fully bounce back from the Achilles injury. Jones said at the end of last season that she's on track in her recovery, but it's not yet clear whether she'll be fully available once the regular season gets underway in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Double-doubles in playoff loss
CConnecticut Sun
October 9, 2024
Jones notched 16 points (7-12 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and three blocks across 23 minutes during Tuesday's 88-77 loss to the Lynx.
ANALYSIS
Jones recorded her first double-double of the playoffs in this Game 5 defeat, but her efforts were not enough, and the Sun were unable to reach the WNBA Finals as a result. Jones was one of the Sun's best players in the regular season but didn't perform at the same level in the playoffs, averaging a mere 9.1 points and 3.6 boards per contest across seven postseason appearances. However, she also saw her minutes drop to 19.9 per game after logging 27.2 per game in the regular season, where she averaged 13.7 points and 5.5 rebounds per contest. Even though Jones' production declined in most areas during the 2024 campaign, she still had a relatively solid return to the court after missing most of last season due to a ruptured Achilles. She's spent the first eight seasons of her career in Connecticut, but it wouldn't be surprising to see her generate considerable interest as an unrestricted free agent during the offseason.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Jones compiled another impressive season in 2022 despite primarily appearing off the bench, compiling 13.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.2 steals per game. Jones has spent the early portion of her career in the shadow of Jonquel Jones, but that is slated to change in 2023 with Jonquel headed to New York via trade this offseason. Brionna Jones will thus presumably reclaim a permanent starting role in the Sun's frontcourt and should see both her playing time and production spike. She posted a career year as a full-time starter in 2021, averaging 14.7 points and 7.3 boards, and Jones' per-36 production from last year suggests she could best those numbers in 2023.
Jones averaged career-high counts in points (14.7), rebounds (7.3) and assists (1.8) during the 2021 campaign while shooting 57.1 percent from the field and 79.6 percent from the free-throw line. Partnered with DeWanna Bonner and Jonquel Jones, Connecticut has arguably the most formidable frontcourt in te WNBA, though Bonner and Brionna are certainly secondary options behind the reigning MVP However, all three players may see a slight dropoff in their overall production with the addition of Courtney Williams, who averaged 16.5 points, 6.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists for the Dream last season and is slated to take over the starting role vacated by Briann January, who is now with the Storm.
