As Texas guard Andrew Jones continues his battle with leukemia, his family provided an update on the sophomore's condition on Saturday morning.

In a statement, Jones' family noted that Andrew has been moved to The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, and that he is receiving "the best possible care and taking the next steps in his recovery."

"We do want everyone to know that in the last two weeks, Andrew has made some positive strides," the statement continues. "He's even been able to get out of bed and move around some, which is a huge difference from when he was first diagnosed in Austin.
