Jahlil Okafor

Jahlil Okafor (ankle) will play and start for the Pelicans on Tuesday

New Orleans Pelicans center Jahlil Okafor (ankle) will start on Tuesday versus the Orlando Magic.

What It Means:

Okafor had sat out the last couple of games with an ankle injury but is good to go on Tuesday. He will join Anthony Davis in the frontcourt -- starting at center -- as the Pels go big against the Magic. Frank Jackson heads to the bench with Jrue Holiday, E'Twaun Moore, and Kenrich Williams joining Okafor in the starting five.

Our models had Okafor projected for 8.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 17.6 FanDuel points in 15.2 minutes on Tuesday.
