Brandon Ingram (hamstring) doubtful Thursday for Pelicans
New Orleans Pelicans small forward Brandon Ingram (hamstring) is doubtful to play on Thursday against the Portland Trail Blazers.
What It Means:
Ingram recently missed 10 games due to a hamstring strain, but he returned for the last five and didn't appear to suffer a setback in the most recent outing. C.J. McCollum and Devonte' Graham should take on a larger offensive roles Thursday and there will be more minutes for Trey Murphy, Larry Nance Jr., and Naji Marshall.
numberFire’s models project McCollum for 36.2 minutes and 41.7 FanDuel points, and he has an $8,200 salary on Thursday’s seven-game slate. Graham has a $3,600 salary and he is currently the third-best point-per-dollar value on our board.
