Josh Oduro PF | NO
Pelicans' Josh Oduro: Logs season-high 31 minutes
Oduro notched four points (2-2 FG, 0-1 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 31 minutes before fouling out of Sunday's 132-126 loss to the Timberwolves.
After spending most of his time with the G League's Birmingham Squadron, Oduro was rewarded with a one-year, two-way contract with the Pelicans in March. He had been waived by New Orleans during training camp last year, so Oduro will likely be fighting for a contract opportunity this fall once again.

Trey Alexander SG | NO
Pelicans' Trey Alexander: Puts up season-high 16 points
Alexander recorded 16 points (7-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), one rebound, one assist, one block and three steals in 32 minutes during Sunday's 132-126 loss to the Timberwolves.
Alexander popped for a season-high 16 points Sunday, showing what he's capable of when given significant minutes. The two-way player signed a one-year deal with the Pelicans last summer and mostly played for the G League's Birmingham Squadron this year, so his next steps for 2026-27 are uncertain at this time.

Hunter Dickinson C | NO
Pelicans' Hunter Dickinson: Plays season-high 21 minutes
Dickinson closed Sunday's 132-126 loss to Minnesota with six points (3-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 21 minutes.
Dickinson spent the vast majority of his time with the G League's Birmingham Squadron in 2025-26, and he's next set for unrestricted free agency this offseason. The Kansas product averaged 2.4 points, 1.0 rebounds and 0.4 assists in 8.4 minutes per tilt through five NBA games this season, and it remains to be seen if the Pelicans will be interested in bringing him back ahead of training camp in the fall.

Micah Peavy SF | NO
Pelicans' Micah Peavy: Puts up 21 points in loss
Peavy accumulated 21 points (6-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 41 minutes before fouling out of Sunday's 132-126 loss to the Timberwolves.
With most of the regulars out for New Orleans, Peavy again played an expanded role with the first unit. Overall, Peavy was rarely on the fantasy radar this season. Across 61 appearances, he averaged 4.3 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.5 three-pointers in 15.0 minutes per contest.

Jordan Hawkins SG | NO
Pelicans' Jordan Hawkins: Scores 13 in finale
Hawkins had 13 points (4-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Sunday's 132-126 loss to the Timberwolves.
Hawkins played a very minor role in 2025-26, appearing in just 51 games for an average of 13.6 minutes per contest. He produced 5.1 points, 1.7 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 0.9 three-pointers, shooting just 36.6 percent from the field.

Hayden Gray SG | UTA
Jazz's Hayden Gray: Scores six points in NBA debut
Gray closed with six points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one assist, one block and one steal across 25 minutes during Sunday's 131-107 loss to the Lakers.
Gray signed a two-year deal with the Jazz right before the end of the regular season, appearing in Utah's final contest of the year. The contract suggests the team will give Gray a chance to compete for a backup role in the backcourt in 2026-27, though it's worth noting Utah also brought in Bez Mbeng on a two-year pact late this season and may have similar plans in mind for him as well.

John Konchar SG | UTA
Jazz's John Konchar: Logs 28 minutes in loss
Konchar finished Sunday's 131-107 loss to the Lakers with four points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and three steals across 28 minutes.
Following his midseason trade from the Grizzlies, Konchar settled into a decent role with the Jazz. Across 26 appearances, he averaged 5.9 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 blocks and 0.6 three-pointers in 26.2 minutes per contest. The veteran has one more year on his deal worth $6.16 million.

Brice Sensabaugh SG | UTA
Jazz's Brice Sensabaugh: Strong finish to season
Sensabaugh closed with 15 points (4-10 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 13 minutes during Sunday's 131-107 loss to the Lakers.
Sensabaugh started 12 of his last 14 games to close out a losing season for the Jazz, and he'll likely be battling for reserve minutes during training camp next fall. The third-year forward performed fairly well as a scorer, averaging 14.9 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 2.2 three-pointers in 23.5 minutes per tilt through 75 games this season.

Blake Hinson SF | UTA
Jazz's Blake Hinson: Scores 10 points in finale
Hinson logged 10 points (4-12 FG, 2-8 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and one steal over 26 minutes during Sunday's 131-107 loss to the Lakers.
Hinson, who was on a two-way contract, played a hefty role down the stretch with the Jazz shutting so many players down. He ended up with 14 total NBA appearances, posting averages of 11.9 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 2.6 three-pointers in 20.4 minutes per contest.

Bez Mbeng SG | UTA
Jazz's Bez Mbeng: Plays all 48 minutes in loss
Mbeng accumulated 14 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds, nine assists and five steals in 48 minutes during Sunday's 131-107 loss to the Lakers.
Mbeng moved back into the starting unit for the last game of the regular season and played all 48 minutes. The Jazz rewarded Mbeng with a two-year deal April 2, and he played a key role down the stretch with averages of 8.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 2.3 steals and 0.4 three-pointers in 32.8 minutes across 15 appearances.
