Brandon Ingram (illness) uncertain Friday for Pelicans
New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (illness) is questionable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
Ingram missed Wednesday's practice and Thursday's game due to an illness, but he might be able to make it on the court for the second leg of the Pelicans' back-to-back. Jordan Hawkins will have fewer minutes and Trey Murphy will likely relinquish his starting spot if Ingram is active.
numberFire's models project Ingram for 35.1 minutes and 37.7 FanDuel points on Friday. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Pelicans' implied total (111.25) is No. 15 out of 20 active teams today. The game total (219.0) is second-lowest on the board.
