Brandon Boston Jr. - Gets start Monday Boston will enter the starting lineup in Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact With Jordan Hawkins (back) joining CJ McCollum (thigh) and Dejounte Murray (hand) on the sideline, Boston will receive his second career start Monday. The 22-year-old has found some opportunity in a depleted backcourt, and he has averaged 7.3 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.0 steals across 16.5 minutes per game in four regular-season appearances.
NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Javonte Green - Back to bench Green isn't starting Monday's game against the Portland, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact Green drew his first start of the season Sunday against the Hawks, tallying three points, two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 24 minutes. The Pelicans will go with a different look Monday, penciling Brandon Boston and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl in with the first unit with Zion Williamson (hamstring) and Jordan Hawkins (back) both ruled out.

Zion Williamson - Ruled out Monday Williamson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Portland, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.
Impact Williamson will miss his second consecutive matchup of a back-to-back set due to right hamstring soreness. The superstar has averaged 21.4 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.2 blocks across 31.4 minutes per game in five regular-season outings. With both Williamson and Jordan Hawkins (back) joining a litany of players on the sideline, Javonte Green and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl are both likely candidates to receive an increased role.
NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Hawkins - Won't play vs. Portland Hawkins (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.
Impact Hawkins has been in the Pelicans' starting five in each of the last three games, and over that span he has averaged 21.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.7 assists over 35.7 minutes per game. However, he appears to be dealing with lower back tightness following Sunday's loss to the Hawks, and he'll sit out Monday for the second leg of this back-to-back set. Javonte Green, Jaylen Nowell and Antonio Reeves should all see increased playing time due to Hawkins being sidelined.

Jordan Hawkins - Iffy for Monday Hawkins is questionable for Monday's game against Portland due to lower back tightness.
Impact The Pelicans have yet another injury concern with Hawkins popping up on the report. If Hawkins is unable to play the second leg of this back-to-back set, Brandon Boston and Jamal Cain could both see hefty workloads Monday.
NOVEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Zion Williamson - Listed as questionable Williamson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Portland.
Impact Williamson missed Sunday's game for the first half of a back-to-back set, but his status for Monday remains up in the air. If Williamson is unable to play, there will be a lot of minutes up for grabs for players like Jeremiah Earl-Robinson, Jamal Cain and Brandon Boston.

Javonte Green - Minimal impact Sunday Green totaled three points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 126-111 loss to the Hawks.
Impact Green made his first start of the season Sunday due to the late scratch of Zion Williamson (hamstring), but he was unable to make a significant impact and delivered a minimal output. Green should return to the bench once Williamson is ready to return, something that might happen as soon as Monday against the Trail Blazers in the second half of a back-to-back set. If that's not the case, however, then Green could remain in the first unit given how depleted the Pelicans are in terms of injuries.
NOVEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Hawkins - Puts up 19 points in loss Hawkins racked up 19 points (7-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one block in 31 minutes during Sunday's 126-111 loss to the Hawks.
Impact Hawkins has been dealing with back tightness over the last few days, but the 22-year-old guard continues to play through the injury in what has been a breakout beginning to the season for him. The second-year player out of UConn has scored at least 15 points in five of his last six appearances and is averaging 21.7 points per game in a starting role. Expect him to maintain his role in the first unit for the foreseeable future -- or as long as Dejounte Murray (hand) and CJ McCollum (thigh) remain sidelined.
NOVEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Brandon Ingram - Goes for 32 points in loss Sunday Ingram accumulated 32 points (12-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 29 minutes during Sunday's 126-111 loss to Atlanta.
Impact The Pelicans were extremely depleted for this matchup and Ingram was the team's go-to player on offense, so it wasn't surprising to see him reach the 30-point threshold once again -- something he's achieved in three of his seven contests to date. Ingram should continue to have a dominant role on offense for a Pelicans team that will be without CJ McCollum (thigh) and Dejounte Murray (hand) for at least a few more weeks. In fact, his upside could be even higher as long as Zion Williamson (hamstring) continues to deal with a hamstring problem.
