Theis is out for Thursday's game versus the Suns due to neck spasms, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.

Theis had appeared in each of the Pelicans' last six games, but his absence Thursday could open up more time for Jeremiah Robinson-Earl or Trey Jemison at the backup center spot behind starter Yves Missi. Theis' next chance to suit up will come Saturday versus the Thunder.
