Doesn't suit up Wednesday
Although Missi sat out the final three games of this past regular season due to left ankle soreness, he was able to make three Summer League appearances before the Pelicans opted to hold him out of action Wednesday. His prior availability this summer suggests he's moved past the ankle issue, and the 2024 first-rounder is set to open the new season as New Orleans' top center after starting 67 of his 73 games during his rookie year.

Drops 22 points in SL loss
Fears connected on just one three-pointer but delivered an efficient all-around scoring performance Wednesday in what's been an up-and-down Summer League. The No. 7 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft was viewed as a high-upside, high-risk prospect, so some early inconsistency is to be expected.

Leading scorer in SL defeat
Alexander paced all scorers with 25 points off the bench, knocking down five shots from beyond the arc. He joined the Pelicans on a two-way deal this offseason after spending his rookie 2024-25 season in the Nuggets organization, where he logged 24 regular-season NBA appearances and averaged 1.3 points in 4.9 minutes per game.
