Aldama’s looming absence should mean Jock Landale will return to the starting lineup. Landale scored 21 points off the bench in his last game out, and he’s averaged 11.2 points, 8.5 rebounds and 2.2 assists across his last six starts.

Jones’ streak of missed games will extend to eight, which means Saddiq Bey should stick with the first unit for at least one more contest.

Zion is a late addition to the injury report, which doesn’t bode well for his chances at taking the court on Wednesday. If Williamson is ultimately sidelined, more minutes could be available for Karlo Matković and Micah Peavy, while Saddiq Bey would likely shoulder a heavier offensive responsibility.

The Grizzlies are back stateside after splitting two games in Europe with the Magic. Yet to miss a game this season, Aldama logged 25 minutes in Sunday’s win over Orlando. If he’s unable to play on Wednesday, Santi would likely be replaced in the starting lineup by Jock Landale.

Jones has missed the Pelicans’ last seven games with a sprained left ankle. He’s appeared in one game since initially spraining his ankle during a December 22 game against the Mavericks. Saddiq Bey will be the starter as long as Jones is sidelined.

While fellow rookie Jeremiah Fears (two points, three rebounds, two assists and one block) has hit a rough patch recently, shooting 40.2 percent from the field over the past two weeks, Queen’s production has been consistent. During these two weeks, the rookie center has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats. Fears was limited to ten minutes, with Queen sharing the frontcourt with Yves Missi (10/7/4/1/2) to begin the second half. That’s something fantasy managers should watch during the Pelicans’ three-game Week 14.

Williamson’s game does have some flaws: he isn’t a great foul shooter, and turnovers can be an issue. However, when he’s healthy, the Pelicans’ forward can offer solid fantasy value. Having scored at least 20 points in six of his last seven appearances, Williamson has been close to a top-75 player over the past two weeks. The Pelicans play three games in Week 14 without a back-to-back, so availability shouldn’t be an issue for Zion.

Murphy led six Pelicans in double figures with his 21 points, extending his streak of games with at least 21 to eight. Over the past two weeks, he has been a top-10 player in eight-cat formats. With the Pelicans not having control of their first-round pick, tanking should not be in the equation. That’s good news for fantasy managers who are hoping Murphy can help carry them to a league title. The Pelicans open a three-game Week 14 on Wednesday against the Pistons.

Landale shifted to the bench in favor of Santi Aldama, but the latter delivered a pitiful 9/5/3 line with no defensive contributions. The points represent Landale’s second-highest total of the season, and he should remain active in Memphis’ rotation until Zach Edey (ankle) returns, whether as a starter or with the second unit.

Morant returned from a six-game injury and looked no worse for wear as he went off for 20 points, 10 dimes and four boards in the first half. Memphis cruised to victory in this one, and Morant could have had an even bigger night had this one been more competitive. The Grizzlies will travel home from their European road trip, and won’t play again until Wednesday. Morant’s status moving forward will remain in question as he’s been forced to miss significant time and his name is still on the trade block, but this was good to see for fantasy managers.

Aldama hasn’t missed a game this season, and Sunday’s matchup in London won’t be any different. Expect him to handle his normal allotment of minutes against the Magic.

Morant will be available following a six-game absence, but it’s unclear if he’ll face a minutes restriction after a lengthy absence. Cam Spencer may retreat back to the bench, but given Morant’s recent availability and trade rumors, Spencer remains a hold.

Jones will miss a seventh straight game as he continues to sit out with a sprained left ankle. His absence means that Saddiq Bey will stay in the starting lineup, and he should be rostered while used in that role.

Aldama has yet to miss a game this season, and even though he doesn’t start, his absence would open up a ton of minutes in the rotation. GG Jackson and John Konchar would both take on extra minutes off the bench if Aldama is unavailable.

Morant has missed Memphis’ last six games, but he is expected to be back to take on Orlando. Trade rumors continue to swirl, but for now, Morant should return to his place in the starting lineup, which will push Cam Spencer to the bench and eliminate most of his streaming appeal.

Bey remained in the starting lineup with Herb Jones (ankle) still out. The 26-year-old shooting guard had 20 points on 10 attempts with two three-pointers. Bey continues to be worth streaming when Jones is out. The Pelicans are off until Sunday’s game against the Rockets.

Murphy cooled off finally after dropping at least 31 points in four of his last five games entering play Friday. The 25-year-old small forward wasn’t very efficient with 22 points on 21 field goal attempts. His five three-pointers came on 14 three-point attempts. Murphy has still provided first-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Pelicans will close out the week Sunday against the Rockets on the road.

On one hard, Williamson’s last two games have been remarkable. He’s 21-of-26 from the field with 52 points in his last two games. On the other hard, he was also 10-of-15 from the free throw line with seven turnovers, which can torpedo fantasy value in certain formats. Williamson is still a fantasy mainstay when healthy and has displayed elite athleticism on a nightly basis this season.
