Pelicans' Antonio Reeves: Strikes for 16 in first NBA start
Rotowire
Reeves ended Sunday's 98-94 victory over the Hornets with 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes.
With CJ McCollum (foot), Zion Williamson (back) and Jordan Hawkins (back) all sidelined, Reeves made his first career start and was able to make an impact from three-point range. The rookie guard has seen his workload increase dramatically during the last week due to the Pelicans' injury-ravaged backcourt, and over the last three games, he's averaged 23.7 minutes while producing 12.7 points, 3.0 threes, 2.3 boards and 1.3 assists. With Dejounte Murray (Achilles), Trey Murphy (shoulder) and Herbert Jones (shoulder) all done for the rest of the season, Reeves should see enough court time down the stretch to have some DFS appeal.

Pelicans' Antonio Reeves: Drains five threes in Monday's win
Rotowire
Reeves recorded 17 points (6-10 FG, 5-7 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 24 minutes off the bench during Monday's 112-99 victory over Philadelphia.
The five treys were a career high for the rookie guard, who got some extended run after Jordan Hawkins (ankle) was forced from the contest in the third quarter. Reeves could take on a more consistent role in the Pelicans' backcourt if Hawkins' injury proves to be serious. Reeves has scored in double digits with multiple three-pointers in each of the last three times he's played 20-plus minutes in a game.

Reeves remained in the rotation, playing at least 15 minutes for the third straight game. After barely playing to begin his career, it appears as though the Pelicans have decided to at least give him an opportunity to experience the NBA up close.
