Mouhamed Gueye started on Wednesday and contributed 10 points (3-of-9 FGs), 10 rebounds, six assists, four steals, two blocks, one three-pointer and five turnovers against the Pelicans.
With Onyeka Okongwu sidelined with an illness, Gueye got the starting nod at center. Kristaps Porziņģis is still on a minutes restriction, which resulted in Gueye getting the opportunity, and he took full advantage with a well-rounded stat line despite some inefficiencies. Atlanta plays in Denver on Friday, and if Okongwu remains out, Gueye will be worth streaming. However, if Okongwu is back, Gueye can be returned to the waiver wire.
