Bennedict Mathurin (thumb) doubtful vs. Memphis

Bennedict Mathurin

NOP Guard-Forward #24

Player Stats

Bennedict Mathurin (thumb) is doubtful to play against the Grizzlies on Friday.

Mathurin is expected to miss a second straight game with this thumb injury. Jordan Poole played 21 minutes in Mathurin’s absence on Wednesday and should provide most of the offense off the bench once again in this one. He scored 14 points in their last game and has upside, but Poole isn’t a reliable option.

NOP Guard-Forward #24

Bennedict Mathurin (thumb) has been ruled out against the Nets on Wednesday.

Mathurin played a season-high 24 minutes in Monday’s blowout loss to the Warriors, but he had played less than 10 minutes in the previous two games. Bryce McGowens may see a few extra minutes with Mathurin unavailable.
Jordan Poole

NOP Guard #3

Jordan Poole (ankle) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Jazz.

No surprise here as Poole was listed as probable and has since been cleared to play Wednesday. He’ll return after missing the last three games, bumping either Bryce McGowens or Trendon Watford from the rotation.
Jordan Poole

NOP Guard #3

Jordan Poole (ankle) is probable for Wednesday’s game against the Jazz.

Poole is on track to be available after missing the Pelicans’ last three games. While his return may push Bryce McGowens or Trendon Watford out of the rotation, none of these players should be rostered in redraft leagues.
Jordan Poole

NOP Guard #3

Jordan Poole (ankle) is out for Monday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Poole will miss a third consecutive game with left ankle tendinopathy. Bryce McGowens has played rotation minutes off the bench recently and should continue to do so, but he’s unlikely to offer reliable fantasy value.
Jordan Poole

NOP Guard #3

Jordan Poole (ankle) is out for Saturday’s game against the Hawks.

Poole will miss a second consecutive game with a sprained left ankle. Bryce McGowens got a few minutes in Poole’s absence but didn’t play enough to impact fantasy basketball.
Jordan Poole

NOP Guard #3

Jordan Poole (ankle) has been ruled out against the Kings on Thursday.

Poole was initially listed as doubtful and has now officially been downgraded to out for this game. Bennedict Mathurin should take on a significant bench role in this game, especially with Dejounte Murray (personal) also sidelined.
Jordan Poole

NOP Guard #3

Jordan Poole (ankle) is doubtful for Thursday’s matchup with the Kings.

Poole injured his ankle against the Nuggets on Wednesday, and given the quick turnaround, he’ll sit out the second leg of the back-to-back set. In his absence, Herb Jones and Benn Mathurin could take on expanded roles.
Jordan Poole

NOP Guard #3

Jordan Poole (ankle) will not return against the Nuggets on Wednesday.

Poole hurt himself on a transition layup attempt. If Poole were to miss some time, look for more minutes for Bennedict Mathurin and Herb Jones. Bryce McGowens could also get into the rotation as a backup guard.
Jordan Poole

NOP Guard #3

Jordan Poole (illness) is available to play against the Nuggets on Wednesday.

Poole was initially probable for this game but has now been cleared to suit up against Denver. He’ll continue to be a source of offense for them off the bench, but his role has been too small for him to be worth rostering outside of deep leagues.
Jordan Poole

NOP Guard #3

Jordan Poole recorded 14 points (4-of-5 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), one rebound, two assists and three three-pointers in Thursday’s exhibition against the Heat.

Poole appeared in only 39 games last season, and his chances of earning consistent rotation minutes in 2026-27 don’t look good. That said, he shot the ball well in Miami, knocking down three of his four three-point attempts. You gain little by using a draft pick on Poole in most fantasy leagues, but he has a clean slate under new head coach Jamahl Mosley.

Dailyn Swain (back) is questionable to play against the Hawks on Friday.

Swain missed Wednesday’s game against San Antonio and could miss another. However, his role this season has been minimal, so his absence won’t have much of an impact on Chicago’s rotation.

Norman Powell (back) is questionable to play against the Hawks on Friday.

Powell has missed Chicago’s last two games and is in danger of missing a third. If that happens, Isaac Okoro will be in line for another start, though he isn’t a player to consider streaming in fantasy basketball.

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports Caleb Wilson is set to undergo surgery on a fractured right hand that will keep him sidelined four-to-six weeks.

Wilson exited early from Wednesday’s game against San Antonio, and now that injury will keep him sidelined for a while longer. This timeline would have him returning in mid-to-late December, though it could end up being longer. Patrick Williams is the likely candidate to fill in as a starter, though Noa Essengue could also see an expanded role.

Giannis is still managing this wrist injury, but he will be able to play through it once again. He scored 30 points in Tuesday’s win over the Jazz and should fill up the box score once again.
