He dished out nine assists for the second time in six games this year and has scored in double figures in all six matchups. Davison is averaging 16.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.2 blocks in the early stages of the 2022-23 campaign.

Trey Murphy III - Avoids serious injuryPelicans coach Willie Green said Saturday that all testing done on Murphy's foot came back clean, and he'll be day-to-day with a right foot contusion, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com repo...

ImpactMurphy exited Friday's game against the Celtics due to right foot soreness but has avoided any long-term injury. With Zion Williamson (foot) likely available Monday, Murphy figures to operate off the bench even if he does play.

Malcolm Brogdon - Struggles with shot in returnBrogdon finished with five points (1-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal over 18 minutes during Friday's 117-109 win over the Pelicans.

ImpactBrogdon contributed in multiple areas in this one, but he wasn't particularly efficient shooting the ball. He may be just knocking off some rust after more than a week on the sidelines, but he should continue to be a key backcourt piece while Marcus Smart (ankle) is sidelined. However, Derrick White appears to have surpassed him for starting duties at point guard in lieu of Smart.

Zion Williamson - Expects to play MondayWilliamson (foot) said Saturday that he "definitely" thinks he'll be able to play in Monday's game versus the Warriors, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

ImpactWilliamson has missed the Pelicans' last three games due to a right foot injury. However, with him set to return to the lineup Monday, Trey Murphy (foot) will likely move back to the bench if he plays at all. Williamson is averaging 23.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.1 steals in 32.2 minutes across 11 games this season.

Herbert Jones - Puts up 17 points in lossJones finished with 17 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, three steals and two assists across 36 minutes in Friday's 117-109 loss to the Celtics.

ImpactSince returning from a four-game absence earlier this month, Jones has quietly re-emerged as a reliable complementary piece for the Pelicans. In his last nine games, he's averaging 12.1 points (on 51.3 percent shooting from the field) 4.0 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.6 steals, 0.8 three-pointers and 0.2 blocks in 29.3 minutes per contest. Jones' contributions in the steals category continues to drive most of his fantasy value, but his offensive production has been trending upward of late with Zion Williamson (foot) missing the past three contests.

Jonas Valanciunas - Quiet in lossValanciunas accumulated ten points (5-7 FG, 0-1 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 21 minutes in Friday's 117-109 loss to th Celtics.

ImpactValanciunas is now averaging 13.4 points, 9.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.4 steals, 0.3 blocks and 0.5 triples across 23.6 minutes per game. He averaged 30.3 minutes for the Pelicans last year, so it looks like they are monitoring his workload a little more early on this season. As a result, his overall production may take a slight hit.
