Saddiq Bey News, Rumors, Updates - New Orleans Pelicans

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.

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.

Continues productive ways 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.

Impact 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.

Remaining in starting lineup Bey is in the Pelicans' starting lineup against the Bulls on Sunday.

Impact 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.

Remains relevant Monday 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.

Impact 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.
