• Pelicans' Brandon Ingram: Iffy for Friday vs. GS

  8H ago • By RotoWire

  Ingram is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Warriors due to bilateral ankle sprains. Ingram missed Wednesday's loss to Cleveland due to the sprained ankles, though he could return as the Pelicans play Golden State in an NBA Cup game Friday. If the 27-year-old is unable to return to game action Friday, Brandon Boston and Elfrid Payton will likely continue to see an uptick in playing time, especially if Jordan Hawkins (back) and CJ McCollum (adductor) are ruled out.

• Pelicans' Brandon Ingram: Listed out for Wednesday

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Ingram will not play Wednesday against the Cavaliers due to bilateral ankle sprains. Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so the Pelicans will hold Ingram out as a precaution. With the team off to a 4-11 start, this could potentially become a trend during back-to-back sets. Trey Murphy is also out for rest purposes, so we could see a lot of Javonte Green, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl and Brandon Boston on Wednesday.

• Pelicans' Brandon Ingram: Scores team-high 32 points

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Ingram posted 32 points (11-23 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 7-9 FT), four rebounds, eight assists, three steals and a block across 38 minutes in Saturday's 104-99 loss to the Lakers. Ingram was the driving force for this depleted Pelicans roster, and he posted another impressive stat line despite the loss. Despite the team's struggles, Ingram has been very valuable in fantasy due to his high usage and undisputed status as the Pelicans' go-to option on offense while Zion Williamson (hamstring) is out. He's scored at least 20 points in all but two of his appearances this month while also posting solid numbers in other categories such as rebounds, steals and assists.

• Pelicans' Brandon Ingram: Carries Pelicans to victory Friday

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Ingram racked up 29 points (12-26 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and one block over 37 minutes during Friday's 101-94 victory over Denver. The Pelicans need Ingram to step his game up amid their injury woes, and the star forward did exactly that Friday against a Denver team that was missing Nikola Jokic (personal). Ingram remains the go-to player on offense for the Pelicans, and he's backing that up with strong numbers -- he's averaging 23.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 6.0 assists and a combined 1.4 steals-plus-blocks in eight November outings.

• Pelicans' Brandon Ingram: Decent output in another loss

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Ingram had 18 points (7-18 FG, 4-8 3Pt), six rebounds, six assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 106-88 loss to Oklahoma City. The Pelicans have been slumping badly this season, though no one could blame them given all the injury woes they've had in recent weeks. Ingram is the only projected starter who has been available regularly for New Orleans, but he can't do everything on his own. He's putting up decent numbers, averaging 22.6 points, 5.9 assists, 5.6 rebounds and a combined 1.5 steals-plus-blocks in seven games this month.
