CJ McCollum (rest) won't play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday. McCollum will get the night off to rest after dropping 40 points, five rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 37 minutes in Sunday's 136-130 loss to the Pistons. The 33-year-old is one of seven Pelicans listed as unavailable for tonight's contest.
Yves Missi (hip) could also be sidelined, as he is listed as questionable due to right hip soreness. McCollum will likely be back in action against Golden State on Friday.

CJ McCollum (rest) has not been listed on the injury report, indicating that he will be available for Tuesday's encounter with the Los Angeles Clippers. The Pelicans are coming off a back-to-back set, and McCollum was rested for the second leg on Sunday against the Memphis Grizzlies. Recently, McCollum has been quiet, averaging 15.6 points on 40.5 percent shooting since the All-Star break. With
Zion Williamson (conditioning) also back in action,
Trey Murphy III's offensive usage takes a hit, while
Jordan Hawkins will likely have to move back to the bench.

CJ McCollum (rest) won't play on Sunday against the visiting Grizzlies. The veteran amassed 17 points, five boards, and one steal while shooting 4-for-7 from deep in Saturday's loss to the Houston Rockets. But McCollum and
Zion Williamson will take the night off to rest.
Bruce Brown is off the injury report, so he could move into the starting lineup.
Jose Alvarado (hip), who is questionable after totaling 17 points and seven assists on Saturday, may also find himself with the first five.

CJ McCollum (rest) has been ruled out for the Friday night rematch against the Phoenix Suns while he receives a rest day. This is the back half of a back-to-back, and the Pelicans are fresh off of a win over the Suns on Thursday where McCollum posted 19 points, four rebounds, and two assists. On Friday,
Jordan Hawkins and
Jose Alvarado should both see a boost in minutes while McCollum and
Zion Williamson (injury management) are both sidelined this time around. Hawkins finished with 10 points, five rebounds, three assists, and two blocks on Thursday while Alvarado had 14 points, five assists, and three steals.
