Elfrid Payton E. Payton

Elfrid Payton (finger) will play and start for New Orleans Monday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Elfrid Payton (finger) will play on Monday versus the Minnesota Timberwolves.

What It Means:

Payton has been out since mid-November with a fractured left pinky but will return to the starting lineup on Monday night. The point guard is expected to have a minutes limit though. Tim Frazier will see a reduced role with Payton back with Solomon Hill likely moving back to the bench.

Our models project Payton for 27.8 FanDuel points in 29.2 minutes on Monday night.
