Zion Williamson Back On The Injury Report

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (foot) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the New York Knicks. He's back on the injury report because of a left foot contusion, something he's been dealing with for a while. Of course, the 23-year-old should be in all fantasy lineups if he's available, and his fantasy ceiling will increase even more if CJ McCollum (ankle) doesn't suit up. However, with the Pelicans playing back-to-back contests in the next few days, there's a chance Williamson could miss one of them, which would open the door for Naji Marshall and Larry Nance Jr. to get enough action to make them relevant for fantasy purposes.

CJ McCollum Day-To-Day After Practice

New Orleans Pelicans head coach Willie Green said Monday that guard CJ McCollum (ankle) is day-to-day after the 32-year-old went through a full practice. McCollum sprained his left ankle during Friday's loss to the Miami Heat, but he's trending in the right direction for Tuesday's tilt against the New York Knicks. New Orleans will update McCollum's game status on their official injury report later on Monday, but the guard should be deemed questionable for now.

Dejounte Murray Shines With Near Triple-Double

Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray went close to a triple-double as the team started life without Trae Young (finger) with a 109-92 victory over Orlando on Sunday. He led all scorers with 25 points, had a game-high 11 assists, and was also among the most productive players on the glass, finishing with nine rebounds. Across 39 minutes of action, Murray shot 11-for-20 from the field with a 2-for-5 record from downtown and also grabbed a pair of steals. Murray should be set for a dominant stretch, with Young ruled out for multiple weeks. Bogdan Bogdanovic is also set to benefit as Young's replacement in the starting five. He produced a 17-5-3 line on Sunday.

CJ McCollum Out On Sunday Night

New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (ankle) won't suit up on Sunday night versus Chicago. The former Trail Blazer injured his ankle on Friday against the Miami Heat, forcing him to exit after just 15 minutes on the floor. At this point, it's hard to gauge how long McCollum will be sidelined. But with Jose Alvarado getting a three-game suspension, Jordan Hawkins should draw consideration from fantasy managers for streaming purposes. Hawkins has averaged 17.3 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in 10 starts this season.

Jose Alvarado Getting Three-Game Suspension

According to Chris Haynes of TNT, New Orleans Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado will get a three-game suspension. During Friday's matchup between the Pelicans and Heat, several players from both clubs were involved in a scuffle, resulting in the league also handing down suspensions to Jimmy Butler, Naji Marshall, Thomas Bryant, and Nikola Jovic. With this in mind, Butler's one-game suspension will be the one felt most by fantasy managers. However, with CJ McCollum (ankle) sidelined for Sunday's matchup against Chicago, Alvarado was in line to benefit from a production standpoint. But now, Jordan Hawkins, averaging 17.3 points and 1.1 steals in 10 starts this season, is worth streaming in all fantasy setups.
