4 years agoNew Orleans Pelicans center Steven Adams (toe) and point guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker (ankle) have both been deemed unavailable for Friday's contest against the 76ers. Adams continues to push his back onto the floor, having returned Tuesday, but he was ultimately held to just 24 minutes and one point; Alexander-Walker has not suited up since April 4 with an ankle ailment. The constant frontcourt shuffling pushes intrigue in the direction of Willy Hernangomez and Jaxson Hayes, who have drawn sizable DFS interest when Adams has been down. Alexander-Walker's absence opens up Eric Bledsoe and Lonzo Ball for all of the shot attempts that they can handle, especially in light of Zion Williamson (finger) and Brandon Ingram (ankle) being out indefinitely.--Jesse Borek
