Pelicans list DeMarcus Cousins (ankle) as questionable on Sunday

New Orleans Pelicans center DeMarcus Cousins (right ankle sprain) is questionable to play against the Denver Nuggets on Sunday.

What It Means:

Cousins apparently tweaked his ankle on Friday, but he was able to finish the game and he played the entire fourth quarter. We should know more later in the afternoon, but if Cousins can't go, Dante Cunningham will likely get the start while Anthony Davis and Jrue Holiday will each get a big boost in DFS value on Sunday.

If Cousins does play, our models project him for 25.9 points, 10.8 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.3 blocks over 34.3 minutes against the Nuggets.
