Pelicans' Yves Missi: Ruled out for Thursday

Missi (foot, ankle) won't play in Thursday's game against Minnesota.

The 2024 first-rounder also had to sit out Tuesday's meeting with the Timberwolves with right foot and ankle soreness. His absence locks Derik Queen into big minutes Thursday, while Kevon Looney should sprinkle in as the backup center.
