New Orleans Pelicans

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (leg) has been cleared to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. This is good news after Williamson missed their last game due to a right leg contusion. The expectation is that he'll play his normal role in the rotation, so fantasy managers can get Williamson back in their lineups. His return will shift Trey Murphy III back to the bench where his streaming value will take a hit.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado (illness) is currently listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Alvarado sat out on Sunday because of the issue, but hopefully he's feeling better now. His return would mean that Dyson Daniels would see a reduced role in the rotation. He wasn't an ideal streaming option anyway, but he won't have much value at all if Alvarado is cleared to play.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (leg) is currently listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The star forward was unable to play on Sunday due to a right leg contusion. The hope is that he'll return here, which would shift Trey Murphy III back to the bench. It's uncertain if the team plans to limit Williamson, assuming he plays. Murphy should still be able to have value off the bench, but it would take a hit if Williamson is able to play.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (leg) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The superstar forward won't play after exiting early on Friday due to a right leg contusion. The expectation is that Trey Murphy III will move into the starting unit with Williamson unavailable. Murphy should already be rostered in most formats, but fantasy managers should double check and make sure he's not on the waiver wire. He'll have increased value with Williamson sidelined on Sunday.

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Zion Williamson suffered a right leg contusion against the Clippers on Friday and didn't finish the game. He saw 19 minutes of action, totaling 12 points and six rebounds with one steal and one block. Williamson got ruled out late in the game after it had turned into a blowout, so there's hope he was pulled only for precautionary reasons, and he could be good to go again on Sunday against Sacramento. However, if that's not the case, Larry Nance Jr. will be asked to step up, while Trey Murphy III and Naji Marshall could also get a boost in playing time.
