Daniel Theis

Missi joins nine other Pelicans on a wildly long injury list for the second game of a back-to-back set. Trey Jemison and Daniel Theis would likely soak up New Orleans' center minutes if Missi is ultimately sidelined.

The Pelicans have been forced to make another change to their starting lineup, as Zion Williamson (hamstring) will not play. As a result, Green moves into the starting lineup and is worth streaming in deep leagues. Missi retains his place in the starting lineup, with Daniel Theis continuing to come off the bench.

Hawkins, Theis, and Missi are available after initially being listed as questionable for Friday's game. While the first two will start, Missi will come off the bench but offers a higher fantasy upside than Theis. Hawkins needs to be streamed wherever available, as CJ McCollum and Herb Jones are both sidelined (as are Dejounte Murray and Trey Murphy).

Theis injured his ankle during Wednesday's loss to the Warriors, with Yves Missi starting the second half. Missi is also questionable for Friday's game, so a "doomsday" scenario could have Jeremiah Robinson-Earl in the lineup at the five. Zion Williamson can also fill the void, albeit for limited periods.
