Jordan Hawkins (illness) will miss Friday's contest against the Boston Celtics. He is out with an illness for a second consecutive game after the team downgraded him from questionable to out.
Brandon Boston Jr. saw an uptick in minutes in the last game against the Dallas Mavericks and will likely pick up a few extra minutes again. He finished with 12 points and four steals against the Mavericks, showcasing his ability to make an impact at both ends of the floor.

Jordan Hawkins (illness) is suffering from a non-COVID illness on Friday and is considered questionable for their matchup against the Boston Celtics. With yet another lengthy injury report, Hawkins could get plenty of minutes if he's able to battle through this illness. If he's unable to play, however,
Dejounte Murray (probable),
CJ McCollum, and
Trey Murphy III will all see heavy minutes with the starting five.
Brandon Boston Jr. will likely get some added minutes and could serve as a streamer in deeper leagues after dropping 12 points, one rebound, and four steals in their last game.

Jordan Hawkins (illness) will skip Wednesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. He is feeling under the weather and will be sidelined after making 20 consecutive appearances. With Hawkins on the shelf,
Jose Alvarado and
Brandon Boston Jr. might soak in more minutes on Wednesday. However, this isn't a good matchup for the Pelicans' second unit, as Dallas allows the sixth-fewest bench points in the league.

Jordan Hawkins (thumb) has been cleared to play on Friday versus Memphis. The team has upgraded him from questionable to available. The 22-year-old is a talented shooter who averages 12.5 points for the season. However, Hawkins managed only five points in Thursday's 128-111 loss against Houston, shooting 0-for-6 from three-point range. Friday's matchup is another tough one for Hawkins, as Memphis has limited opposing teams to 33.4 percent shooting from deep.
