Herbert Jones Downgraded To Out
6 months agoNew Orleans Pelicans head coach Willie Green says forward Herbert Jones (fibula) is not going to play in Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This is somewhat surprising after Jones appeared to be closer to probable, since he was seen at morning shootaround. Nevertheless, right fibula soreness will ultimately sideline the 25-year-old three-and-D wing for the first time this year on Wednesday. It's fair to wonder if Jones suffered a setback along the way, but we'll deem him day-to-day unless we hear otherwise before Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. New Orleans is already missing stars CJ McCollum (lung) and Zion Williamson (personal), so Dyson Daniels and Larry Nance Jr. look like intriguing DFS salary-relief options on Wednesday's packed 14-game slate.
