Remains outside of rotation Hernangomez (coach's decision) went unused off the bench in Monday's 117-113 win over the Pacers.

Impact Since making a spot start Jan. 1 in Milwaukee when Jonas Valanciunas was out after entering the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, Hernangomez has proceeded to make one five-minute appearance off the bench in the Pelicans' subsequent 10 contests. With both Valanciunas and Jaxson Hayes healthy, Hernangomez is the clear third option on the depth chart at center and won't hear his number called in competitive contests.
