Upgraded to available Missi (illness) has been upgraded to available for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.

Impact After missing the last two games, Missi will return to the floor for the Pelicans for Friday's game on the road in Memphis. The rookie big man has played well in his first season with New Orleans, averaging 9.1 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.4 blocks per game, shooting 56.3 percent from the field.

Likely to play Friday Missi (illness) is probable for Friday's matchup against Memphis, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

Impact Missi has missed two consecutive contests due to the non-COVID illness, though he'll likely return to game action Friday. The rookie big man has been a mainstay in the Pelicans' starting five, and over his last 10 outings, he has averaged 8.3 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.9 blocks and 1.8 assists while shooting 60.8 percent from the field in 28.4 minutes per game.

Iffy for Wednesday Missi (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.

Impact An illness has kept Missi off the floor in consecutive outings for the Pelicans, and the rookie big man is in danger of missing a third straight game Wednesday as well. If Missi cannot suit up against Milwaukee, Daniel Theis would be in line to make another spot start at center, and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl would figure to absorb more playing time from New Orleans' bench.

Won't play Monday Missi (illness) won't play Monday against the Jazz.

Impact Missi missed Friday's game against the Jazz and was unable to practice Sunday, as he remains under the weather. His next chance to play will be Wednesday against the Bucks. Daniel Theis and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl will likely see increased run Monday, especially with Zion Williamson (illness) also out.

Questionable for Monday Missi (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against Utah.

Impact Missi missed his second game of the campaign Friday against the Jazz, and he was unable to practice Sunday. He remains day-to-day, however, and the Pelicans will likely see how he feels in the morning before a decision is made. If Missi is unable to play, Daniel Theis and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl will likely see increased run.

JANUARY 19 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out Friday Missi won't play in Friday's game versus the Jazz due to an illness.

Impact Missi will miss just his second game of the season Friday due to a non-COVID illness. Daniel Theis and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl are candidates to receive increased playing time in his absence. Missi's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Utah.

Where Does Pelicans' Yves Missi Rank on the Updated NBA Rookie Ladder? The NBA recently released their updated Rookie Ladder and Yves Missi of the New Orleans Pelicans remains near the top of the rankings.

JANUARY 17 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Increased role in victory Missi recorded 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 119-116 win over the Mavericks.

Impact Missi saw a slight increase in playing time, thanks largely to the fact that Zion Williamson was resting on the second night of a back-to-back set. Despite continuing to start for the Pelicans, Missi's production has declined of late, averaging just 8.0 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game over the past two weeks. The eventual return of Brandon Ingram from an ankle injury could also impact Missi, making him a tough player to project moving forward.

Through 35 appearances, he's on pace to post 11th-round value in nine-category formats, averaging 9.6 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.4 blocks. With free-throw percentage ignored, however, he jumps into the eighth round valuation.

Double-double against Wizards Missi ended Friday's 132-120 victory over Washington with 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one block across 32 minutes.

Impact It's the eighth double-double of the season for the rookie center, with half of them coming since the beginning of December. Missi is averaging 11.0 points, 9.7 boards, 1.5 assists and 1.5 blocks in 30.7 minutes a contest during that span while shooting 59.1 percent from the floor, and the 21st overall pick in the 2024 Draft is looking more and more like a steal.
