New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (thigh) remains out on Monday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. The former Duke Blue Devil wasn't available for Sunday's loss to the Atlanta Hawks, so he'll miss a second consecutive game because of thigh soreness. His next chance to get on the floor will be on Wednesday against the visiting Cavs. But as far as Monday's contest is concerned, fantasy managers can expect more minutes for Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, Daniel Theis, and Yves Missi.
New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (hamstring) is officially questionable for Monday's matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers. The talented forward missed Sunday's game, and his status for Monday remains uncertain. If he sits out again, players like Jeremiah Robinson-Earl and Jamal Cain could see increased minutes. Fantasy managers are hoping for consistent health from Williamson this season, as he's been a strong contributor when on the court, averaging 21.4 points and 8.0 rebounds per game.
New Orleans Pelicans center Daniel Theis (ankle) is on track to play Friday against the Indiana Pacers, according to head coach Willie Green. The 32-year-old exited early in Wednesday's loss to Golden State with a right ankle issue, but it appears he'll be able to suit up without any missed time. Over his first five games of the season, Theis has averaged 4.0 points and 4.4 rebounds as a reliable role player. Expect him to resume his usual role barring any last-minute setbacks.
