INJURIES

Officially available Friday McCollum (finger) is available for Friday's game against the Suns.
Impact McCollum was questionable ahead of Friday's matchup but trended in the right direction prior to the start of the game. Both McCollum and Jose Alvarado (back) will be available for the Pelicans, while Zion Williamson (hip) and Herbert Jones (knee) are unavailable. McCollum has posted double-doubles in his last two appearances, averaging 21.0 points and 11.5 assists in 38.5 minutes per game over that stretch.

Impact Barring a setback during warmups, it sounds like McCollum and Jose Alvarado (back) will be available for Friday's matchup. However, Zion Williamson (hip) and Herbert Jones (knee) remain true game-time decisions. Across his first four appearances of the campaign, McCollum has averaged 21.0 points, 7.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 steals in 34.8 minutes per game.

Questionable Friday McCollum (finger) is questionable for Friday's game against the Suns.
Impact McCollum seemed to have picked up the injury in Tuesday's win over the Mavericks, where he tallied 14 points and 11 assists in the absence of Brandon Ingram (concussion), Zion Williamson (hip) and Herbert Jones (knee). With Ingram ruled out, Williamson and Jones listed as questionable and the addition of Jose Alvarado (back) and Dyson Daniels (ankle) to the injury report, McCollum could see yet another massive workload Friday if he's active.

Puts up team-high 28 points McCollum registered 28 points (12-25 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, 12 assists and one steal across 41 minutes during Sunday's 122-121 overtime loss to the Jazz.
Impact The passing numbers certainly stand out, but McCollum is not known for being a pass-first player and is not likely to put up those figures on a regular basis. Instead, McCollum led the Pelicans in scoring and had another impressive performance, as the former Blazers guard is enjoying a strong start to the 2022-23 campaign. Through three games, McCollum has scored at least 20 points in each outing and is averaging 23.3 points while shooting 48.3 percent from the field.

Pours in 21 points McCollum closed Friday's 124-112 victory over the Hornets with 21 points (9-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal over 32 minutes.
Impact McCollum has scored 21 points in each of his first two games of the new season, logging 30-plus minutes in each contest. He's drained three and two triples to kick off the season, respectively, and he appears poised to pick up right where he left off from beyond the arc a season ago. McCollum averaged 7.5 attempts from three and 2.5 made threes a season ago.

Goes for 21 points in win Wednesday McCollum amassed 21 points (7-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, six assists and three steals in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 130-108 win over the Nets.
Impact McCollum was solid as ever in the win despite taking a back seat to both Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram. While he doesn't receive the fanfare of a couple of his teammates, McCollum's importance to this team cannot be understated. There is a very real chance he could lead the team in assists and threes this season while chipping in 20 points per game on reasonably efficient shooting. He could maintain top-60 value most of the way.

Struggles in return McCollum (ankle) collected three points (1-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four assists, one rebound and one steal in 18 minutes during Wednesday's preseason loss to the Heat.
Impact McCollum was a game-time call but ended up playing. He's rusty coming off the ankle injury, but he has one more warm-up opportunity Friday against the Hawks before the season starts Wednesday against the Nets.
OCTOBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Set to start Wednesday McCollum (ankle) will start Wednesday's game against the Heat.
Impact McCollum tested his ankle in warmups before concluding he would give it a go. Given that it's the preseason, it's safe to assume he wouldn't be out there if he wasn't feeling near 100 percent on it. McCollum will have a pair of opportunities to get his conditioning in order ahead of next week's season opener versus the Nets.

True GTD on Wednesday McCollum will test out his ankle in warmups before deciding on his status for Wednesday's preseason clash with the Heat, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.
Impact McCollum remains a true game-time call for this one, and the staff will likely err on the side of caution considering it's the preseason. The release of the starting five will shed more light on his availability for the contest.

Labeled questionable for Wednesday McCollum (ankle) is considered a question mark for Wednesday's preseason game against the Heat, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.
Impact McCollum participated fully in practice Tuesday, but his status for Wednesday's contest has yet to be determined. Either way, it sounds like he should be back in action Wednesday or Friday and isn't in danger of missing regular-season action.

Impact McCollum sat out the last two exhibitions due to an ankle issue that surfaced a week ago, but it appears he's nearly put the problem behind him. Assuming he can avoid a setback the rest of the preseason, McCollum is set to run the Pelicans' point again in 2022-23.
