Jose Alvarado In Risk Of Suspension Following Ejection
1 year agoNew Orleans Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado was involved in a scuffle in Friday's game against Miami and was ejected from the contest early in the fourth quarter. After the teams clashed on the court following Kevin Love's foul on Zion Williamson, Alvarado got into a physical altercation with Miami's reserve big Thomas Bryant. The defensive specialist even tried to climb on the scorers' table during the scuffle. There are definitely fines coming from the incident, and Alvarado is in danger of receiving a suspension. His absence would be quite a blow for the Pelicans' backcourt after CJ McCollum (ankle) exited Friday's contest with an injury.

Jose Alvarado Questionable To Play On Tuesday
3 weeks agoNew Orleans Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado (hip) has been labeled questionable for Tuesday's clash against the Los Angeles Clippers. He is battling soreness in his left hip. The tenacious guard played through the injury last week, so it's not apparently a major issue for Alvarado, who has averaged 9.7 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.4 steals for the season. If Alvarado does take the night off on Tuesday, Jordan Hawkins and Antonio Reeves may see increased playing time.

Jose Alvarado Available Versus Memphis
3 weeks agoNew Orleans Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado (hip) will play on Sunday against Memphis. He had 17 points and seven assists in Saturday's loss to the Houston Rockets. But Alvarado was listed as questionable for this one because of hip soreness, although that has been the norm over the last few games. With CJ McCollum and Zion Williamson resting versus the Grizzlies, Alvarado and Jordan Hawkins are both worth starting in any fantasy format.

Jose Alvarado Uncertain For Saturday
3 weeks agoNew Orleans Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado (hip) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. The 26-year-old appears to have picked up a left hip injury during his last game which could leave the Pelicans shorthanded this weekend. It's worth noting that Bruce Brown (rest) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest, so Jamal Cain might actually see significant minutes in the rotation if Alvarado is out as well. Cain hasn't done much this season, even in games where he gets increased playing time. That being said, fantasy managers should look elsewhere for help on Saturday.

Jose Alvarado Unavailable On Wednesday
2 months agoNew Orleans Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Pelicans have been leaning more on Alvarado with Dejounte Murray (Achilles) done for the season. His absence means that the Pelicans will likely need to use a committee approach at the guard spot. Jordan Hawkins, Javonte Green, and Antonio Reeves should all see increased roles. None of them have great streaming appeal, but Hawkins is probably the best choice of the three.
