Larry Nance Jr. (ribs) doubtful Tuesday for Pelicans
New Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (ribs) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies.
What It Means:
Nance has been sidelined for a month and will remain out on Tuesday, but the doubtful tag is an upgrade and suggests he's approaching a return. Jonas Valanciunas and Cody Zeller (ankle) will likely lose some minutes once Nance is cleared to play.
Nance is averaging 15.1 minutes and 11.4 FanDuel points per game this season. Valanciunas has a $7,900 salary on Tuesday and numberFire's models project him for 36.6 FanDuel points over 31.7 minutes. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Pelicans’ implied total is 116.25 and the game total is 228.0.
