Jones (ribs) is making significant progress in his return from a collapsed lung, the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Jones rode a stationary bike for the first time Friday, and the team is hoping he could be ready for on-court work by next Tuesday, when the Rockets will practice next after a four-games-in-five-nights set. Given that timeline, Jones could return with a few games left in the regular season as the Rockets prep for a playoff run. The biggest news here, however, is that Jones has been ruled out for at least the next five games.
