INJURIES

Iffy for Thursday Missi (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Magic.
Impact Missi has missed only three games for the Pelicans this season but could end up missing a fourth Thursday due to an ankle sprain. If the 20-year-old rookie is ruled out against Orlando, the team will likely turn to Karlo Matkovic and Mo Bamba to pick up the slack in the frontcourt.
MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE
Nearly double-doubles Missi supplied nine points (3-6 FG, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 26 minutes during Tuesday's 127-120 win over the Clippers.
Impact Missi limped back to the locker room with 2:59 remaining in the first quarter due to an apparent ankle injury, but returned to the game midway through the second quarter. Missi's fantasy production has left a lot to be desired in recent weeks, as he's averaging 10.4 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.8 blocks in 26.8 minutes over his last 10 games.

Returns from locker room Tuesday Missi (ankle) returned to Tuesday's game against the Clippers with 6:28 remaining in the second quarter.
Impact Missi limped back to the locker room with 2:59 remaining in the first quarter due to an apparent ankle injury, per the broadcast. However, the rookie big man has since returned following a brief exit, and he will likely be able to shoulder his normal workload the rest of the way.

Impact Missi limped back to the locker room with 2:59 remaining in the opening quarter. If the rookie big man is unable to return, Mo Bamba and Karlo Matkovic will likely see a bump in playing time the rest of the way.
MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE
Scores 10 points in loss Missi supplied 10 points (3-5 FG, 4-6 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 28 minutes during Thursday's 109-97 loss to Houston.
Impact Although he's averaging 24.8 minutes per game over his last 10 outings, Missi's production has left a lot to be desired. In that stretch, Missi has been well outside the top-200 in nine-category formats, averaging 8.7 points, 7.5 rebounds and 0.9 blocks on 51.3 percent shooting from the field.

Goes for 24 points Friday Missi finished Friday's 125-108 loss to the Suns with 24 points (11-14 FG, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block over 26 minutes.
Impact Missi has been one of the most productive and consistent rookies in the 2024-25 NBA season, and the former Baylor standout recorded double-digit points for the third game in a row. He's averaging 9.1 points and 8.6 rebounds per game since the beginning of February, and it seems he has locked down the starting role at center for the rest of the campaign as the Pelicans attempt to make a late push for a Play-In berth.

Logs double-double in win Missi registered 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, one block and one steal over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 109-103 win over the Spurs.
Impact Missi recorded his first double-double since Jan. 3, marking his ninth such outing of the season. Additionally, the rookie big man recorded a block and a steal for the 20th time across 55 regular-season matchups. Missi has logged double-digit rebounds in each of his last three appearances, though he has scored in double figures in only two of his last 10 games.

Pulls down career-high 15 boards Missi closed with six points (3-9 FG, 0-2 FT), 15 rebounds and one assist in 23 minutes during Sunday's 114-96 win over San Antonio.
Impact The 15 boards were a career high for the rookie center, marking the fourth time in the last nine games he's reached double digits in that category. None of those performances resulted in double-doubles however, as Missi's offense remains a work in progress -- over those nine contests, he's averaging just 6.8 points while shooting 43.3 percent from the floor.
FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE
Swats four shots in return Missi (knee) recorded six points (3-8 FG), 10 rebounds, four blocks and one assist across 24 minutes in Friday's 111-103 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact After hyperextending his right knee in the Pelicans' final game before the All-Star break on Feb. 13 versus the Kings, Missi was forced to withdraw from taking part in the Rising Stars game at All-Star weekend in San Francisco. The week-long break provided Missi with sufficient time to heal from the knee injury, and he was back in action Friday as New Orleans kicked off its second-half schedule. The rookie made his mark on the defensive end, recording at least four blocks for the fifth time in 53 games.
FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE
Good to go against Dallas Missi (knee) is listed as available for Friday's game versus the Mavericks.
Impact Missi is set to play Friday despite suffering a right knee hyperextension in New Orlean's final outing before the All-Star break. The rookie center is averaging 6.1 points, 7.7 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 26.8 minutes across his previous 10 appearances.
FEBRUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Friday Missi (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Pelicans.
Impact Although he left New Orleans' final game prior to the All-Star break with a hyperextended knee, Missi has a chance to suit up Friday. Even with Zion Williamson (rest) off the injury report, Karlo Matkovic and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl could see an uptick in minutes if Missi is unavailable against Dallas.

Impact Missi suffered his injury during Thursday's game versus the Kings but appears to have avoided a long-term issue. Bulls forward Matas Buzelis will replace him in the Rising Stars game Friday. Missi is expected to be re-evaluated ahead of New Orleans' matchup with Dallas on Feb. 21.
FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE
Picks up knee injury Missi won't return to Thursday's game against the Kings due to a right knee injury. He registered two points (1-2 FG), two rebounds and one block in 12 minutes before departing.
Impact Missi was noticeably absent for most of the second quarter, and the team announced shortly after the beginning of the second half that Missi wouldn't return. Karlo Matkovic started the second half in Missi's place and should be in line for more looks down the stretch.

FEBRUARY 11 • YOUTUBE
Four rejections against Sacramento Missi produced two points (1-6 FG), 13 rebounds, one assist and four blocks in 32 minutes during Saturday's 123-118 loss to the Kings.
Impact While he didn't contribute much offense, the rookie center more than held his own at the defensive end in a matchup with Domantas Sabonis. Missi has scored in double digits only once in the last six games while shooting a disappointing 41.2 percent from the floor, but the 20-year-old has averaged 8.3 boards and 1.8 blocks over that stretch along with his 4.7 points.
FEBRUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE
Fails to score in loss Missi totaled zero points (0-4 FG), seven rebounds, one assist and four blocks in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 137-136 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact Missi failed to score for the second straight game, although he did manage to contribute four blocks. As the Pelicans start to get healthy, Missi's opportunities have reduced in terms of touches when he is on the floor. His role as the starter appears relatively safe but as we have seen in recent times, that is not going to always translate into tangible offensive production.
