Sharp at free-throw line in return Bey (hip) recorded 17 points (4-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-10 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 32 minutes Tuesday in the Pelicans' 122-116 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Cleared to play for the first time since Dec. 31 after missing the previous six games due to a right hip flexor strain, Bey stepped into the starting five in his return and seemingly operated without a minute restriction. Thanks to a productive showing at the free-throw line, Bey finished second in scoring on the Pelicans to only Trey Murphy (31 points). The 26-year-old offered little else in the peripheral categories to supplement his scoring, however, and his overall fantasy value and minutes will likely take a hit once the Pelicans get Herbert Jones (ankle) back from injury.

Will play Tuesday Bey (hip) will play Tuesday versus the Nuggets.

Impact Bey is returning from a six-game absence Tuesday night, so he'll likely have his minutes monitored in his first game back. With Bey back in the mix, there will be fewer minutes available for Bryce McGowens, Micah Peavy and Karlo Matkovic.

Upgraded to probable Bey (hip) is probable for Tuesday's game versus Denver.

Impact Bey, who was previously labeled as questionable, is trending towards a return. He's been sidelined since Dec. 31, and it's possible he faces some restrictions Tuesday. He's had a tremendous season thus far, and fantasy managers will be eager to get him activated.

Could return vs. Denver Bey (hip) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact Bey has been out of the lineup since Dec. 31 after picking up a hip injury, but the fact that he's being listed as questionable for Tuesday's action is a sign that he's nearing a return. The team should have another update on his availability shortly before tipoff.

Ruled out for Sunday Bey (hip) won't play Sunday in Orlando.

Impact Sunday will mark a sixth straight absence for Bey, though the fact that he was initially listed as doubtful for the game before being downgraded can be considered a sign of progress. With the Pelicans' next two games coming as a Tuesday/Wednesday back-to-back set, Bey seems likely to miss at least one of those contests while he works his way back from a right hip flexor strain.

Doubtful to play Sunday Bey (hip) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Magic.

Impact Bey missed Friday's game against the Wizards due to a right hip flexor strain, and the same injury has him with a doubtful tag for Sunday's contest. Bey has missed the last five games due to the injury, and if he remains out, then the likes of Micah Oeavy and Karlo Matkovic should see more minutes.

Another absence coming Bey is out for Friday's game against the Wizards due to a right hip flexor strain.

Impact Sunday's matchup in Orlando marks Bey's next opportunity to conclude what is set to be a five-game absence with the injury. With Herbert Jones (ankle) unlikely to play Friday, Micah Peavy and Karlo Matkovic should have a chance to claim a more sizable role in the New Orleans frontcourt.

JANUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Wednesday Bey (hip) will remain on the inactive list for Wednesday's game in Atlanta.

Impact Wednesday will mark the fourth consecutive game on the sidelines for Bey, which will create some more opportunity for Micah Peavy and Karlo Matkovic. Bey's next chance to play will come Friday versus the Wizards.

Won't play Tuesday Bey (hip) will not play Tuesday against the Heat.

Impact Bey will be sidelined for a third straight game Tuesday, while Herbert Jones (ankle) is listed as questionable. For now, Bey can be considered highly questionable for the second leg of this back-to-back set Wednesday against the Hawks.

Out again Sunday Bey (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat.

Impact 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.

Deni Avdija has 34 points and 11 assists in the Trail Blazers' 122-109 win over the Pelicans

Won't suit up Friday Bey (hip) will not play Friday against the Trail Blazers, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

Impact Bey was previously listed as questionable, but he'll be sidelined for the second time this season. With Bey on the shelf, the Pelicans could give more run to guys like Micah Peavy, Jordan Hawkins and Bryce McGowens.

Questionable for Friday Bey (hip) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against Portland.

Impact 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.

Outstanding with 26 points 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.

Impact 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 for the duration. 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.
