On Monday, the New Orleans Pelicans announced that shooting guard Jordan Hawkins (illness) is available to suit up against the Denver Nuggets. Hawkins had missed two consecutive contests due to an illness. In his last outing, the 22-year-old collected seven points, one rebound, one assist and one steal in 21 minutes during a 113-104 loss to the Raptors on January 27th. Dejounte Murray (Achilles) is out for the season, so Hawkins will likely see an expanded role and could be a solid fantasy option moving forward.

Jordan Hawkins Uncertain On Friday Against Grizzlies
New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Hawkins (back) has been listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies with back soreness.
