Bey (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat.
Bey will miss a second consecutive game due to a right hip strain. The 26-year-old's absence should mean more opportunities for Bryce McGowens and Micah Peavy. Bey's next chance to play will come Tuesday against the Lakers, which is the opening leg of a back-to-back set.

Rotowire

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Questionable for Friday
Rotowire
Bey (hip) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against Portland.
Bey is dealing with right hip soreness and is in jeopardy of missing just his second game of the season. If the 26-year-old forward joins Herbert Jones (ankle) on the sidelines, Micah Peavy, Jordan Hawkins and Bryce McGowens are candidates for increased roles. Over his last 10 outings, Bey has averaged 17.0 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 31.2 minutes per game.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Outstanding with 26 points
Rotowire
Bey accumulated 26 points (9-21 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, six assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Monday's 130-125 loss to the Knicks.
Despite the loss, the Pelicans played tough against the Knicks, and Bey's appearance among a healthy core of regulars was a key factor in the team's success. It's been some time since we've seen Bey and Zion Williamson together in the starting lineup, and the duo reaped huge benefits as they kept pace with the championship-caliber Knicks. Although the Pelicans continue to fall short, Bey is enjoying a productive fifth season, averaging 15.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.0 steals over 33 games.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Continues productive ways
Rotowire
Bey closed Monday's 119-113 victory over the Mavericks with 19 points (7-17 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds and one assist in 35 minutes.
Bey continues to be a very productive player for the Pelicans and fantasy managers alike. He should continue to benefit from Zion Williamson being stuck in a bench role, with Bey having averaged 19.1 points, 7.9 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.1 steals in 32.9 minutes per contest over his last 14 games.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Nets 29 points in comeback win
Rotowire
Bey closed Thursday's 133-128 overtime win over Houston with 29 points (11-18 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and two steals over 34 minutes.
Bey was held to just 10 points on 4-for-12 shooting his last time out, but he bounced back in a big way Thursday, leading the Pelicans in points as he helped his team overcome a 25-point deficit. The Pelicans have now won three in a row, and they'll look to add another win to their ledger Saturday against the 6-21 Pacers. Bey continues to start, with Zion Williamson playing off the bench in two straight appearances since returning from a six-game absence.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Remaining in starting lineup
Rotowire
Bey is in the Pelicans' starting lineup against the Bulls on Sunday.
The Pelicans cleared Zion Williamson (thigh) to return from a six-game absence, but in an effort to monitor the sixth-year forward's minutes, New Orleans will keep Bey in the starting lineup for at least Sunday's game. Bey has started in each of the Pelicans' last 10 games, and over that span he has averaged 19.1 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.7 threes and 1.1 steals over 33.8 minutes per game.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Remains relevant Monday
Rotowire
Bey registered 17 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 36 minutes during Monday's 135-132 loss to the Spurs.
Despite the return of Herbert Jones, Bey remained heavily involved for the Pelicans with the team deploying a small-ball lineup. With Zion Williamson (adductor) unable to stay healthy, Bey's window for fantasy relevance could stay wide open for the foreseeable future.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Productive again Saturday
Rotowire
Bey racked up 18 points (6-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and two assists over 33 minutes during Saturday's 119-101 loss to Brooklyn.
The fifth-year forward continues to shoulder a sizable load on offense for the injury-ravaged Pelicans. Bey has started eight straight games and scored at least 18 points in all of them, averaging 19.9 points, 8.6 boards, 2.8 assists, 1.9 threes and 1.4 steals in 34.1 minutes a contest over that stretch.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Pours in 20 points
Rotowire
Bey finished Thursday's 125-116 loss to Minnesota with 20 points (8-17 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and three steals in 33 minutes.
Bey continues to step up for the shorthanded Pelicans and has been on quite a run. Over his last eight games, Bey has produced averages of 18.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.6 three-pointers on 48.6 percent shooting from the field.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Another 20-point performance
Rotowire
Bey racked up 22 points (7-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-8 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Tuesday's 149-142 overtime loss to Minnesota.
Bey scored at least 20 points for the fourth time in the past five games, continuing to make a name for himself on a team desperate for production. Earlier in the day, Zion Williamson was ruled out for at least three weeks with an adductor injury. This should ensure that Bey remains a sizable piece of the rotation, making him a must-roster player across most formats. In eight games over the past two weeks, he has averaged 15.9 points, 7.9 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 30.5 minutes per game.

Bey posted 22 points (9-13 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Sunday's 133-121 loss to the Lakers.
Bey recorded his fourth double-double of the season, with all of those milestones occurring over the last eight days. The Pelicans' injury woes have earned Bey five consecutive starts. He's performed well in the adjusted role, averaging 19.8 points, 10.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists ans 1.6 steals.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Fills stat sheet vs. Golden State
Rotowire
Bey chipped in 21 points (7-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-8 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 38 minutes during Saturday's 104-96 loss to Golden State.
Bey was unable to record a fourth consecutive double-double, but the fifth-year veteran continues to find ways to make an impact on both ends of the court. Bey has scored at least 18 points and grabbed at least seven boards in each of his last four starts, and that consistency is certainly something fantasy managers can take advantage of regardless of the league format. Bey should remain productive as long as he remains in a starting role.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Third straight double-double
Rotowire
Bey closed with 18 points (6-13 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals across 39 minutes during Wednesday's 133-128 overtime loss to Memphis.
The fifth-year forward has suddenly become a force on the glass. Bey has started three straight games while Herbert Jones (calf) has been unavailable, and he's produced a double-double in all three, averaging 18.7 points, 11.3 boards, 3.3 assists, 2.7 threes and 2.0 steals in 33.7 minutes a contest. Jones is expected to miss at least one more game, but it could be tough to dislodge Bey from the starting five given his impressive level of play over the last week.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Second consecutive double-double
Rotowire
Bey recorded 20 points (8-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-4 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists and two steals over 34 minutes during Monday's 143-130 win over the Bulls.
Bey did more than just record a second consecutive double-double. He set a new season-high mark in rebounds and tied his previous season-high mark in steals while reaching the 20-point mark for the first time since Nov. 12. Bey has been remarkably efficient when deployed in a starting role, averaging 15.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 3.1 assists as a member of the first unit.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Puts up double-double Saturday
Rotowire
Bey registered 18 points (6-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists and one steal across 28 minutes during Saturday's 115-98 loss to Atlanta.
Bey was sharp as a scoring weapon and was also active on the boards en route to posting his first double-double of the season. Bey has been outstanding when playing with the first unit and has scored in double digits in each of his last seven starts, but his long-term upside will remain minimal as long as Zion Williamson (hamstring), who didn't play Saturday, remains healthy.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Starting vs. Atlanta
Rotowire
Bey will start Saturday's game against the Hawks, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
With Zion Williamson (hamstring) and Herbert Jones (back) sidelined, Bey will rejoin the starting five. Over seven starts this season, the 26-year-old forward has averaged 14.7 points, 5.9 rebounds and 2.9 assists in 31.1 minutes per game.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Good to go Wednesday
Rotowire
Bey (ankle) will play in Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
Bey will return from a one-game absence due to a sprained left ankle to face Denver. With Zion Williamson (hamstring) back in action, Bey should return to a bench role. Still, expect the forward to see significant run.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Questionable to face Denver
Rotowire
Bey (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
Bey is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest due to a sprained left ankle. If the 26-year-old forward remains out, Derik Queen, Jordan Hawkins and Micah Peavy are candidates for increased playing time. Bey has started each of his last six appearances, averaging 15.7 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 31.7 minutes per game during that span.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Won't play Monday
Rotowire
Bey (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup with the Thunder.
Bey will miss Monday's game after tweaking his ankle during Sunday's loss to the Warriors, and for now, he should be considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets. With Bey unavailable, Jordan Hawkins could see a minutes bump.
