Pelicans' Jeremiah Fears: Produces 21 points in defeat
Jeremiah Fears supplied 21 points (7-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Sunday's 133-121 loss to the Lakers.The 2025 first-round pick has worked with the New Orleans Pelicans' first unit for most of the season, as the Oklahoma product's services were needed immediately with Dejounte Murray (Achilles) out of action. Jordan Poole's (quad) extended absence has also kept Fears' minutes up. Over 21 games, the rookie has averaged 15.4 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.5 steals.

Pelicans' Jeremiah Fears: Struggles in loss to Warriors
Jeremiah Fears was ejected from Saturday's 104-96 loss to the Warriors after totaling 16 points (5-17 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 3-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals across 36 minutes.Ejection aside, Fears had a subpar performance Saturday after struggling with his shot. Fantasy managers should still be happy with the rookie's contributions, as he recorded at least two tallies in four of the five major categories. Still, his shooting woes are slowly becoming a concern. He's made only 18 of his 47 shots (38.2 percent) from the field over his last four games.

Pelicans' Jeremiah Fears: Sees 24 minutes in win
Jeremiah Fears chipped in 15 points (4-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 24 minutes during Monday's 143-130 win over Chicago.Along with Derik Queen, Fears was benched for the start of the second half with head coach James Borrego turning to Jose Alvarado and Yves Missi. Alvarado responded with a near triple-double and had the hot hand Monday, but unless this becomes a normal thing, Fears is likely to have the larger pathway to fantasy relevance moving forward.

Pelicans' Jeremiah Fears: Poor shooting display in loss
Jeremiah Fears closed Saturday's 115-98 loss to the Hawks with 11 points (5-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 31 minutes.Fears didn't have his best performance, and while he still posted a solid line across the board, his lack of efficiency as a shooter limited his upside. This 11-point effort snapped Fears' run of eight games with at least 15 points, but based on the way he's been playing of late, the rookie out of Oklahoma should continue to work as one of the New Orleans Pelicans' main fantasy options every time New Orleans steps on the hardwood.

Pelicans' Jeremiah Fears: Scores 19 in loss Friday
Jeremiah Fears finished with 19 points (8-16 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and seven steals across 29 minutes during Friday's 118-104 loss to the Lakers.Fears continues to produce at a high level for the New Orleans Pelicans despite being a rookie, and the former Oklahoma star remains consistent even if his shooting numbers are subpar. Fears has scored in double digits in nine games in a row and has reached the 15-point plateau six times in that span, and the Pelicans will continue to put the ball in his hands as long as he remains productive -- even if that means living with the efficiency problems that are common in rookies.

Pelicans' Jeremiah Fears: Struggles with shot Monday
Jeremiah Fears contributed 15 points (4-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals over 31 minutes during Monday's 121-98 loss to the Suns.Fears came off the bench in his first two NBA games but quickly moved into a starting role and hasn't disappointed. The rookie has scored in double digits in seven consecutive outings, and although the efficiency has been lacking at times, Fears is finding ways to contribute. Since moving to a starting role, Fears is averaging 13.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.6 steals per game, although he's shooting only 38.9 percent from the floor. The rookie out of Oklahoma is putting up solid numbers, but there's still plenty of room for improvement.

Pelicans' Jeremiah Fears: Scores 11 in win
Jeremiah Fears had 11 points (4-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one steal in 17 minutes during Tuesday's 116-112 victory over the Hornets.Disregarding his shaky outing against Boston on Oct. 27, Fears has played quite well since being elevated to the starting lineup. He is averaging 15.3 points, 4.5 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 2.0 threes made in his last four starts. The rookie will continue to hold the starting point guard spot for New Orleans, and with Zion Williamson (hamstring) out for several days, his offensive volume should also increase until he returns.
