• Pelicans' Yves Missi: Records double-double

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Missi registered 12 points (3-7 FG, 6-8 FT), 10 rebounds and one block over 28 minutes during Friday's 111-95 loss to the Warriors. Missi didn't have his best shooting performance, as he had a tough matchup against the Warriors' frontcourt, but the rookie found a way to produce in a game where his team looked dominated. Missi has been one of the most consistent rookies in the NBA this season and posted a double-double for the second time across his last five appearances. He's averaging 10.5 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.1 blocks per game since the All-Star break.

Missi's next chance to suit up will come Monday against the 76ers.

• Pelicans' Yves Missi: Strong showing in win

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Missi finished with 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and three blocks over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 119-115 victory over Minnesota. Zion Williamson led the way for the Pelicans in this contest, but there's no question Missi made his presence felt as well, which was no easy feat considering he had to deal with the threat of Rudy Gobert during the entire contest. Missi ended just three boards shy of recording what would've been his fourth double-double since the All-Star break, and he's also scored at a solid rate with double-digit points in five of his last six contests.
