Herbert Jones Questionable Against Spurs On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (groin) has been tagged as questionable for their Friday night contest against the San Antonio Spurs. If he, Larry Nance Jr. (ankle), and Zion Williamson (foot) all end up getting ruled out, the front court could be very thin. As of right now, all three are questionable, so the streaming options for this game are murky, at best, until we get an update before tipoff. Jones wasn't able to play in their last game on Wednesday, so his status seems to truly be up in the air. If he's unable to suit up while Williamson and Nance can't play as well, Trey Murphy III and Dyson Daniels should both be quality streaming options.

Zion Williamson Uncertain To Play Against Spurs

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (foot) has been marked as questionable on the team's injury report leading up to their Friday night game against the San Antonio Spurs. Williamson was unable to play in their last game with the same left foot bone contusion and is now in danger of missing his second consecutive contest. The 23-year-old hasn't been forced to miss back-to-back games all season, which has been a refreshing trend after his injury-plagued start to his NBA career. If he's unable to suit up in this one, Trey Murphy III would likely move into the starting five again unless Herbert Jones (adductor) can play. Larry Nance Jr. (ankle) could also receive some extra minutes if he's cleared, otherwise there'd be some more Dyson Daniels and Naji Marshall minutes.

Zion Williamson Suddenly Questionable

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (foot) is now questionable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. After not appearing on the team's initial injury report, Williamson has popped up on an updated report with a left foot bone contusion. With Herbert Jones (groin) also questionable, the Pelicans could be very shorthanded in the frontcourt on Wednesday. The sharpshooting Trey Murphy III may be in line for a starting nod at power forward in New Orleans' first unit, and in four games without Williamson in 2023-24, Murphy is averaging a strong 18.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.0 three-pointers, 3.3 assists, and 1.0 steals. Larry Nance Jr. and Naji Marshall could also soak up more playing time in this case.

Dejounte Murray Available Against Lakers

Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (hamstring) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Los Angeles Lakers. Murray missed Sunday's one-point win over the Toronto Raptors due to tightness in his right hamstring, but he's good to go on Tuesday. The 27-year-old star playmaker is tallying 21.4 points, 5.1 assists, 5.0 rebounds, 2.4 threes, and 1.3 steals per game and needs to be inserted in all season-long fantasy lineups. Murray's return should push Bogdan Bogdanovic back to his sixth-man role against the Lakers.

Dejounte Murray Could Miss Second Consecutive Game Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (hamstring) is regarded as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Lakers. He was a late scratch on Sunday versus Toronto due to right hamstring tightness, and the issue might now keep him off the court for a second consecutive contest. Prior to last weekend, Murray had featured in every game this season. Bogdan Bogdanovic started in his absence and put in a very productive performance. He's one of the best bench players in the league, and a starter's role always makes Bogdanovic even more attractive as an addition to fantasy squads.
