Zion Williamson (personal) ruled out Wednesday for Pelicans
New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (personal) is out for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
What It Means:
Williamson is a new addition to the injury report and the Pelicans haven't revealed the specific cause of his absence. This will be his second missed game this season. Herb Jones (leg) is questionable, so Larry Nance and Jonas Valanciunas could be busy down low for New Orleans. Matt Ryan will also likely have a larger workload on Wednesday night.
Nance is now numberFire's fourth-best point-per-dollar value on Wednesday's 14-game slate. He has a $3,900 salary and our models project Nance for 22.9 FanDuel points in 25.5 minutes. Val ($6,500) is projected for 26.7 FanDuel points in 22.9 minutes.
