CJ McCollum Not Likely To Play Friday
2 hours agoNew Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (adductor) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. McCollum has been out since Oct. 29 due to a right adductor strain but has been cleared for practice, indicating he could be nearing a return. If he remains sidelined for Friday's matchup, Brandon Boston Jr. and Elfrid Payton might take on additional minutes. McCollum has made a strong impact in his four appearances this season, averaging 18.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 2.3 steals per game, though fantasy managers may need to exercise patience as his recovery continues.
