Returns to bench Alvarado isn't in the starting five for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
Impact CJ McCollum will replace Alvarado in the starting lineup Wednesday after missing the previous game with an ankle injury. Alvarado is averaging 8.9 points, 2.9 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 20.4 minutes across his previous 47 contests coming off the bench.

Added to starting five Alvarado is starting Monday's game against the Thunder, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact Alvarado will step into the starting lineup at point guard in place of CJ McCollum (ankle). Alvarado's last start dates back to Jan. 29 against the Bucks, when he finished with 18 points, three rebounds, six assists and two steals in 29 minutes.

Returning to bench Alvarado is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game at Denver, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
Impact The 24-year-old made a spot start Sunday with CJ McCollum (thumb) and Brandon Ingram (toe) inactive and posted 18 points (4-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six assists and three rebounds and two steals in 29 minutes, but he'll shift back to the bench Tuesday with McCollum and Ingram back in the lineup. Alvarado is averaging 9.2 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.0 steals in 20.9 minutes when coming off the bench this season.

Posts 18 points in starting role Alvarado closed Sunday's 135-110 loss to the Bucks with 18 points (4-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six assists and three rebounds and two steals over 29 minutes.
Impact With CJ McCollum (thumb) and Brandon Ingram (toe) sidelined, Alvarado stepped into the starting five after appearing off the bench in each of his previous 10 contests. Though he shot poorly from the field, Alvarado's strong showings from three-point range and the free-throw line enabled him to finish with his best scoring total since Dec. 9. The 24-year-old has shown the ability to put up solid numbers across the board when given extended run, but if McCollum is back in action for Tuesday's game in Denver, Alvarado could see his playing time drop back into the 20-to-25-minute range.

Starting Sunday Alvarado is starting Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Impact With CJ McCollum (thumb) sidelined for Sunday's matchup, Alvarado will step into the starting lineup for the first time since Jan. 7. Over eight starts this season, he's averaged 10.0 points, 4.5 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.9 steals in 27.6 minutes per game.

Scores 17 points off bench Alvarado finished Tuesday's 99-98 loss to the Nuggets with 17 points (8-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt), one rebound and three assists over 27 minutes.
Impact Alvarado bounced back with an extremely efficient performance Tuesday following a 1-for-8 outing in his previous appearance. The backup point guard has now scored in double figures in four of his past five games and is averaging 11.6 points, 2.8 assists and 1.8 rebounds in 27.6 minutes during that stretch. However, with Brandon Ingram (toe) set to return Wednesday, Alvarado could see his role slightly decrease moving forward.

Rounds out stat line in loss Alvarado finished with 17 points (6-15 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 30 minutes in Friday's 123-110 loss to the Magic.
Impact Alvarado's playing time has been on the rise of late, with the second-year guard reaching the 30-minute mark in three of his past four contests while averaging 11.3 points, 3.5 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 three-pointers, 1.5 steals and 0.8 blocks over that stretch. If Alvarado can maintain that level of playing time, he would have some appeal in 12-team category leagues, but he'll be a prime candidate to lose some minutes whenever the Pelicans clear Brandon Ingram (toe) or Zion Williamson (hamstring) to play again.

Tallies five assists, three steals Alvarado ended Monday's 113-103 loss to Cleveland with 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and three steals across 34 minutes.
Impact Alvarado had one of his better games in recent memory, logging a season-high 34 minutes in the loss. Seen as a steals specialist, Alvarado had been struggling on the defensive end prior to the last couple of games, recording a combined two steals across seven games. He remains a streaming consideration in standard formats, but as we have seen lately, there is an element of risk associated with him.

Logs 14-and-7 in spot start Alvarado notched 14 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 27 minutes during Saturday's 127-117 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact Alvarado moved into the starting lineup Saturday, replacing CJ McCollum, who was given the night off for rest purposes. Despite contributing only one steal, Alvarado did a bit more on the offensive end, totaling 14 points and seven assists. This was his third straight game with double-digit scoring, making him a streaming consideration until the Pelicans return to full strength.

Starting against Dallas Alvarado is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Mavericks.
Impact CJ McCollum won't play Saturday due to rest, so Alvarado gets the nod in the backcourt next to Trey Murphy. Alvarado has started seven times this season and is averaging 9.4 points, 2.7 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 2.0 steals per contests in that role.

Solid performance off bench Friday Alvarado closed with 17 points (6-16 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists over 32 minutes during Friday's 108-102 loss to the Nets.
Impact Alvarado didn't shoot the ball particularly well, but he still ended with a decent stat line off the bench. He's now scored in double digits in back-to-back games, but the nature of his bench role and the inconsistencies of his shot make him a tough player to roster outside of deep fantasy formats. He's averaging just 9.9 points per game since the start of December, which is even worse considering that he had a 38-point game against the Nuggets during that span.

Uneventful night Monday Alvarado accumulated zero points (0-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists in 12 minutes during Monday's 120-111 loss to Philadelphia.
Impact Alvarado was unable to have an impact in the loss, continuing what has been a lean couple of weeks. He has now scored in single digits in seven of his past eight games, tallying 11 steals during that time. Given his sporadic offensive offerings, he should be viewed as just a streaming option in 12-team leagues.

Not starting Wednesday Alvarado isn't in the starting lineup Wednesday against Minnesota, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact After earning a spot start in the Pelicans' win over the Pacers on Monday, the guard returns to his normal role off the bench. Alvarado is averaging 9.2 points and 3.1 assists per game.

Tallies three steals in spot start Alvarado ended Monday's 113-93 victory over the Pacers with eight points (3-11 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and three steals over 30 minutes.
Impact Alvarado did what he does best, garnering three steals as a member of the opening unit. With three of New Orleans' regular starters on the sideline, Alvarado came through with a decent performance in the blowout win. His efficiency was far from perfect, but his three defensive counters could certainly make a difference in a weekly fantasy matchup. Continue to roll with him until we get word that the absent players are returning to action.
