Bey and Jones will remain out for the Pelicans’ final game of the season. Jordan Poole and Micah Peavy have moved into the starting lineup, with the former being the superior option for those in active fantasy leagues.

Bey and Jones will join the rest of New Orleans’ regular starters and Karlo Matković (back) on the bench, as the Pels will have to turn to Jeremiah Fears, Derik Queen, Jordan Hawkins and Micah Peavy to shoulder the load.

While Bey was not on the Pelicans’ injury report for Tuesday’s win over the Jazz, the Pelicans decided not to play him. Micah Peavy moved into the starting lineup and had the best offensive showing of his rookie season. Look for him to play heavy minutes again if Bey isn’t available.

Bey is absent from the Pelicans’ injury report, which makes this a bad situation for fantasy managers in active leagues. Micah Peavy should play extended minutes, especially with Herb Jones and Zion Williamson also not expected to play. Like Bey, Jones and Williamson are not on the injury report.

Bey has scored 30 points or more in five games this season, with Sunday’s effort being his first since February 26. The Pelicans’ forward had eight games of 30 or more in his first four NBA seasons combined. Bey has been excellent more often than not in his first season in New Orleans, emerging as a reliable option as the franchise continues its rebuild. For fantasy managers whose leagues run through Week 24, the Pelicans play three games.

Bey was one of the Pelicans’ leaders in scoring and reached the 20-point mark for the first time since March 19 in a win over the Clippers. The veteran forward struggled from the three-point line but did his damage inside the arc and found scoring at the charity stripe. He didn’t fill up the stat sheet by any means, but his scoring was likely enough to serve as helpful across fantasy leagues. He’ll have a chance to put together another solid outing on Sunday against the Magic.

Bey continues to score in double figures, with Thursday’s performance extending his current streak to nine consecutive games. He didn’t offer much beyond the points, rebounds and three-pointers, but fantasy managers should not be too concerned. Plus, the Week 23 schedule works in the Pelicans’ favor, as they still have games on Friday and Sunday.

Bey has scored at least 17 points in each of his last eight games, continuing to provide consistent offensive value. Rostered in 44 percent of Yahoo! leagues, the Pelicans forward has provided sixth-round value in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. With the Pelicans off until Thursday, he won’t be useful to fantasy managers at the start of Week 23. However, managers should check their waiver wires on Wednesday for Bey, as the Pelicans play three games in the final four days of the week.

While he may not be an elite fantasy option, Bey’s consistent production has made him a player worth rostering in 12-team formats. A little over two weeks removed from a two-game stretch in which he totaled 14 points on 6-of-26 shooting from the field, the Pelicans’ forward has scored 17 or more in six straight appearances. And since the All-Star break, Bey has been a top-75 player in eight-cat formats. With the Pelicans playing two more games in Week 22, he may be worth streaming if available on the waiver wire.

Bey finished one point shy of a fourth straight with 20 or more, but most fantasy managers will take the final line that he did provide. Since the All-Star break, he has provided sixth-round value in eight-cat formats. Fantasy managers seeking scoring for Week 22 could do a lot worse than Bey, who is rostered in 44 percent of Yahoo! leagues and has four games on the schedule.

Bey was the Pelicans’ top scorer against L.A. In fact, he tied a game-high in points, which was largely a result of his shooting from beyond the arc. Bey’s zero-point opening quarter didn’t suggest that he’d be on his way to the best scoring performance of March, but a strong second and even stronger third quarter set the stage. He also chipped in a handful of rebounders and nearly as many assists before the final horn sounded, finishing with a solid overall stat line.

Despite struggles from the three-point line, Bey was one of two Pelicans players to score at least 20 points in Monday’s win. Free throws were a noteworthy factor in his scoring production, while he made an impact on the glass along the way. The veteran wing’s offensive numbers were a welcome sight for fantasy managers, who saw Bey finish in single digits in scoring in the two previous games. He’ll have a chance to stay on track against the Clippers on Wednesday.

Bey did not provide the most robust stat line in Sacramento, but he continues to put up the points. In the midst of the most productive season of his NBA career, the Pelicans forward has scored at least 20 points in 22 of the 57 games he’s appeared in. Rostered in 45 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Bey has the potential to be a league-winner where he is still on the waiver wire, especially in points leagues.

Two nights removed from dropping a season-high 42 points in a win over the Jazz, Bey received more defensive attention in Saturday’s rematch. That didn’t prevent him from scoring 25 points on solid percentages, and the final stat line only lacked a blocked shot. Over the past month, Bey has provided third-round per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats, according to Basketball Monster. The Pelicans have one more game in Week 18, as they visit the Clippers on Sunday.

Bey has had an incredible season for the Pels after missing all of last year, and this was his best performance. His red-hot shooting led to a new season high and the second-highest scoring outing of his career. He’ll continue to play a significant role for New Orleans for the remainder of the season, and while he may not have more performances like this, he should be considered a must-roster player.

Bey bounced back from a couple of below-average scoring performances before the All-Star to finish as one of two Pelicans players on Friday with 20 or more points. Despite shooting inefficiently from beyond the arc, he still converted half of his field-goal attempts and made good use of the charity stripe. Bey was also disruptive defensively in his 36 minutes of game action and finished with a decent final stat line.

While his first season in New Orleans hasn’t been successful from a team wins standpoint, this has been the most productive year of Bey’s NBA career. He recorded his third 30-point game of the season on Friday, helping lead the Pelicans to an upset win in Minneapolis. Over the past three weeks, Bey has been a first-round player in 12-team leagues, according to Basketball Monster. He’s still rostered in 42 percent of Yahoo! leagues, which is way too low, given Bey’s production.

Bey has now made four three-pointers in two of his last three games. The 26-year-old shooting guard has been on fire, providing first-round per game value over the last two weeks. This run ultimately won’t last for Bey, but fantasy managers have to enjoy it while it’s ongoing. The Pelicans have one more game in Week 16, coming up Friday against the Timberwolves on the road.

Bey, who has now scored at least 20 points in five of his last six games, had it rolling on Saturday. The Pelicans’ forward recorded his second 30-point game, finishing two points shy of his season-high. Add in the assists and three-pointers, and Bey continues to provide value for fantasy managers who continue to roster him. The Pelicans play three games in Week 16, starting with the red-hot Hornets on Monday.

Bey has enjoyed an excellent season after missing all of last year with a torn ACL, but this recent stretch is taking things up a notch. Over his last four games, Bey has averaged 24.5 points, 8.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.8 steals and 3.5 triples per game on efficient shooting splits. This is arguably the best season of his career since he is more efficient than he was during his seasons in Detroit. Bey remains a must-roster player, and with how well he’s played, he may be a coveted target at the trade deadline.

Bey continues to shine for the Pelicans, and he’s rebounded nicely after missing the entire 2024-25 season with a torn ACL. He’s scored at least 20 points in three straight and four of his last five appearances, providing top-75 per-game value in eight-cat formats since January 1. Bey is rostered in 30 percent of Yahoo! leagues, but now may be a good time to commit to him in standard leagues, even with the Pelicans playing three games in Week 15.

Bey’s stellar season continued against the Grizzlies, as he shot efficiently from the floor en route to his first 30-point game of the season. A season-high six three-pointers was a major part of his success on the offensive end in this game, while he also made contributions as a facilitator. Bey’s best moments, however, came in the fourth quarter; he scored 19 in the frame to help the Pacers mount a big comeback and ultimately an overtime victory. Bey remains one of the bright spots for New Orleans this season.

Bey didn’t have a great night shooting from the field, but he was a perfect 11-of-11 from the foul line. He’s scored 20 points or more in 11 games this season, going from “fantasy afterthought” to someone who needs to be rostered in deep leagues. At a minimum, Bey should remain in the starting lineup as long as the Pelicans remain without Herb Jones (ankle).

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.

Following a six-game absence, Bey was back and starting for New Orleans. While he played a big role and was able to score some points, he didn’t contribute as much across the board as he has in the past. He has had an excellent bounce-back season after missing all of last year, and as long as he continues to start, he’ll hold value in standard leagues.

Bey will be back after missing the last six games for the Pelicans. He’ll immediately return to the starting lineup, which will result in Bryce McGowens not only being pushed out of the starting lineup but being listed inactive for this game.

Bey is on track to return from a six-game absence due to a right hip flexor. Bey should reclaim his starting role from Bryce McGowens, but with Herb Jones (ankle) out, McGowens could see some rotational minutes. McGowens isn’t worth a look in most fantasy leagues due to his limited production.

Bey has missed the Pelicans’ last six games with a strained right hip flexor. With Herb Jones (ankle) also out, Bryce McGowens has started the last two, offering limited fantasy value in that role. Fantasy managers should leave him on the waiver wire.

Bey is set to miss his sixth game in a row with a right hip flexor strain. With Trey Murphy and Zion Williamson back in the starting lineup anyway, Bey will likely be looking at a bench role whenever he returns.

Bey is expected to miss a sixth straight game. Trey Murphy (back) returned to the lineup for Friday’s game, so he filled the open starting spot left by Bey. Zion Williamson returned to the starting lineup when Bey first was sidelined, and he will likely remain in that role even after Bey returns.
