Dyson Daniels - Undergoes successful surgeryThe Pelicans announced Thursday that Daniels underwent a successful meniscectomy on his left knee and will be re-evaluated in four weeks.
ImpactDaniels suffered a meniscus tear in his left knee recently and will be sidelined at least a month following his procedure. While Thursday's update offers slightly more clarity regarding his return timetable, a better idea of his status should come into focus once he's re-evaluated. He could be in the mix to return late in the regular season or for a potential postseason run, but Jordan Hawkins and Jose Alvarado are candidates to see increased work while Daniels is sidelined.

Trey Murphy III - Defensive whiz against WizardsMurphy finished Wednesday's 133-126 win over Washington with 13 points (3-9 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three steals over 31 minutes off the...
ImpactThe five combined steals and blocks were a career high for the third-year forward, but Murphy has been active on the defensive end of late and has produced five of each over the last three games. His inconsistent role makes him tough to deploy in DFS, but he's proving to be useful in deeper season-long formats. Over the last nine games (including three starts), Murphy is averaging 12.3 points, 3.6 boards, 2.4 threes, 0.9 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 blocks.

CJ McCollum - Delivers 26 points in winMcCollum contributed 26 points (9-17 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 133-126 win over Washington.
ImpactThe veteran guard got back on track after failing to reach 20 points in any of the prior three games. McCollum's usage remains down in 2023-24 as the Pelicans spread the ball around a little more, and over the last 15 contests he's averaging 18.3 points, 4.4 boards, 3.8 assists, 3.2 threes and 0.8 steals.

Zion Williamson - Hammers home 36 in Wednesday's winWilliamson provided 36 points (15-21 FG, 6-9 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and one block over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 133-126 win over Washington.
ImpactFoot and quadricep injuries have cost Williamson five of 22 games since the beginning of January, but the fifth-year forward is capable of flashing his upside whenever he's on the court. He's hit for 30-plus points in three of his last six contests, a stretch in which he's averaging 25.0 points, 6.0 assists, 5.7 boards and 1.2 blocks while shooting 56.1 percent from the floor.
