Dyson Daniels - Still out Daniels (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Mavericks, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.
Impact Daniels will miss a fifth straight game Thursday due to a right ankle sprain. Head coach Willie Green said Jan. 25 that Daniels would be "out for a little bit of time," but the team hasn't provided any updates since. Daniels' next chance to suit up will come Saturday against the Lakers.

Jack White - Remains out Thursday White (adductor) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Warriors.
Impact White continues to deal with a left adductor strain and will be unavailable once again. His continued absence won't impact the Nuggets' rotation.

Aaron Gordon - Dealing with left ankle sprain Gordon is questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors due to a left ankle sprain.
Impact Gordon tallied 15 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-5 FT), six rebounds and six assists in 36 minutes during Tuesday's win over the Pelicans, but he appears to have twisted his ankle during the contest as well. The severity of the issue remains unclear, but if Gordon is forced to miss any time, Bruce Brown, Jeff Green and Christian Braun would be candidates for increased roles.

Trey Murphy III - Offers supplemental scoring Murphy finished with 14 points (6-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, two steals and one assist across 32 minutes in Tuesday's 122-113 loss to the Nuggets.
Impact For the second game in a row, Murphy reached the teens in scoring while knocking down at least half of his shot attempts and chipping in at least one steal. Though his production in the past two games isn't anything eye-popping, Murphy has at least provided some hope that he can retain some utility in 12-team category leagues even with Brandon Ingram having returned to action following an extended absence. Murphy could find it more difficult to hold down a regular 30-minute role once Zion Williamson (hamstring) is playing again, however.

CJ McCollum - Ties for team lead in scoring McCollum (thumb) finished with 21 points (7-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven assists, two rebounds and one steal across 39 minutes in Tuesday's 122-113 loss to the Nuggets.
Impact Back in action after a one-game absence due to a sprained thumb, McCollum settled back in as the Pelicans' co-leading scorer with Herbert Jones, though it came with poor shooting from the field. On a positive note, McCollum was perfect from the free-throw line, which is something fantasy managers shouldn't take for granted coming off a season in which he converted at a 68.2 percent rate on 2.7 attempts per game. He's shown some improvement in that regard in 2022-23, with his percentage now sitting at 79 on 3.1 attempts per game through 46 appearances on the season.
