Injured Herbert Jones Questionable Again On Monday Against ClevelandNew Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (back) still hasn't been fully cleared to play while suffering from a lower back contusion and is in danger of missing his third consecutive game. The 24-year-old has a clear path to plenty of playing time if he can get back to the court since Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson remain sidelined. If he can't suit up, Trey Murphy III and Naji Marshall are the safest streaming options on the team.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (back) won't suit up against Detroit. Jones will now miss his second consecutive contest because of a back contusion, meaning Dyson Daniels should remain in the starting lineup. The 19-year-old has averaged only 5.7 points and 3.3 rebounds in six starts this season. However, with Brandon Ingram (toe) and Zion Williamson (back) also out, Daniels could be more productive.

Injured Brandon Ingram Remains Out Against DetroitNew Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Brandon Ingram (toe) remains out against Detroit. It appears he's nearing a return after missing over a month of action. However, he won't be available on Friday night, making CJ McCollum the favorite to lead the way offensively. Zion Williamson (hamstring) also won't suit up, so guys like Naji Marshall, Dyson Daniels, and Trey Murphy III may continue to benefit, although all three are risky fantasy options.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (back) has been given the questionable tag for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Since leaving Monday's contest with a back injury, he hasn't been able to take the court again. During that time, he's only missed one game so far but is in danger of missing his second. If he remains sidelined, Naji Marshall and Trey Murphy III would be the best streaming options on the team.

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Herbert Jones played only the first half against Washington on Monday, exiting with a lower back contusion. He took a hard fall and initially tried to play through it, but Jones was unable to take the court after the halftime break. He finished the clash with five points and one steal in 13 minutes. It was a quiet night for Jones, but he has been a great asset in general for the Pelicans and fantasy managers alike, averaging 10.0 points with 3.7 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.5 steals. Dyson Daniels started the second half in his replacement but didn't really have an impact. It's currently unknown if the injury affects Jones' long-term availability.

Injured Larry Nance Jr. Available On MondayNew Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (shoulder) is available for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. The veteran forward has been banged up lately and only played in three of the last 11 games. Nance has struggled heavily during those games, so he won't be a recommended streaming option on Monday. His return should mean less playing time for Jaxson Hayes and Willy Hernangomez. The expectation is that Nance is fully available for this game, but fantasy managers can stream him at their own risk.

Injured Jonas Valanciunas Available On SaturdayNew Orleans Pelicans center Jonas Valanciunas (hand) is available for Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The big man has been cleared for this game despite dealing with a sprained right hand. The expectation is that he'll be in the starting five and could see an expanded role on Saturday. The Pelicans are without Larry Nance Jr. (shoulder), so Valanciunas and Willy Hernangomez could see bigger roles during this contest. Between the two, Valanciunas is the better streaming option, but neither player is a great choice.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (shoulder) is available for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The 30-year-old is set to return after missing each of the last four games due to right shoulder soreness. Fellow forward Willy Hernangomez (ankle) is also available for Friday's contest. That means, Jaxson Hayes is likely to see a reduced role with the Pelicans getting healthy. Hayes won't have much streaming appeal with Nance and Hernangomez healthy right now.
Source : RotoBallerUpdated : Jan 7, 2023, 12:20:07 AM - NOInjured Larry Nance Jr. Listed As Questionable For Friday
New Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The veteran forward is in danger of missing his fifth straight game due to right shoulder soreness. It's also worth noting that Willy Hernangomez (ankle) is considered questionable for this contest. Both Hernangomez and Jaxson Hayes have been gaining fantasy value with Zion Williamson and Nance out. The Pelicans are banged up right now, so Hayes and Naji Marshall could be asked to play heavy minutes on Friday. Fantasy managers should check back on Friday for another update on Nance and Hernangomez.

Injured Zion Williamson Expected To Miss Multiple WeeksNew Orleans Pelicans forward/center Zion Williamson (hamstring) is expected to miss multiple weeks with a hamstring injury. Williamson left Monday's game with a hamstring strain and now faces an uphill battle to recovery within the next few weeks. This is obviously a huge blow to New Orleans and fantasy managers everywhere as Williamson was playing some of his best basketball on the season. Naji Marshall is likely going to be inserted to the starting lineup while Jonas Valanciunas should also see a boost in value.
