Al-Farouq Aminu grabbed a career-high 20 rebounds to go with 16 points and one board in 34 minutes against the Mavericks on Wednesday.
He's one of the best rebounding small forwards in the NBA, but his offense has been a liability for the Hornets most of the season. The Hornets will likely address small forward in the offseason.
Apr 17 - 11:39 PM
Al-Farouq Aminu scored eight points on 4-of-11 shooting (no threes) with three rebounds and four steals in Friday's loss to the Jazz.
Aminu is going to be all over the board to finish the year, and if you decide to ride that ride then you're hoping for big defensive and rebounding numbers.
Apr 6 - 1:01 AM
The Hornets fell on Wednesday despite Al-Farouq Aminu racking up 14 points on 7-of-8 FGs, five rebounds, four assists, three steals and one block.
AFA was averaging 6.0 points, 0.3 steals and 0.0 blocks in his previous three games, which says all you need to know about his reliability in fantasy leagues.
Apr 4 - 1:15 AM
Al-Farouq Aminu played under 19 minutes vs. the Cavaliers on Sunday, finishing with four points, five rebounds and no other stats to his credit.
Ryan Anderson played well, scoring 23 points with five 3-pointers, and Monty Williams even gave 22 minutes to Darius Miller, who scored eight points with two rebounds off the bench. Aminu's boxscores are littered with single-digit numbers, as the starting SF job hasn't made him a reliable source of anything beyond rebounds (8.1) and steals (1.4).

Greivis Vasquez
Sidelined
Greivis Vasquez will have surgery on both ankles on Friday to "remove loose particles from both ankles," a league source told the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
Initial reports from Venezuela stated Vasquez would have a procedure done on both ankles and now it's been confirmed. Vasquez dealt with ankle issues during the regular season, so the procedure is designed to alleviate that issue. It is "similar" to what Eric Gordon had done earlier in the month to remove bone spurs from his left ankle.

Eric Gordon
Sidelined
A source told the New Orleans Times-Picayune that Eric Gordon trade rumors have "no merit."
Gordon is expected to be shopped by the Pelicans as the team looks to get out from under his contract, but right now it appears the team is committed to keeping him. We'd expect that to change as we enter the offseason and more teams begin to get active in shaping their plans for next season, but he'll remain with the Pelicans for now.

Austin Rivers
Sidelined
Austin Rivers (hand) was expected to be cleared for basketball activities earlier in the week.
Rivers made the announcement in an appearance on ESPN's First Take, and it makes sense given he was slapped with a four-to-six week timetable on March 12 when he had the surgery. It's now been about 10 weeks since the procedure, and we don't expect Rivers to have any physical limitations entering his sophomore season.

Anthony Davis and Ryan Anderson are expected to be invited to Team USA mini camp in July.
No surprise for either one after their seasons in New Orleans last year. Now each will be inaugural members of the new Pelicans squad, and both will be integral in what the team does into the future.

Jason Smith
Sidelined
Jason Smith (shoulder surgery) has one year left on his contract at $2.5 million, but it's only guaranteed for $1 million if he's waived before June 30th.
Smith said recently that he's "making progress" in his rehab and it will be interesting to see if the Pelicans keep him on their roster -- $2.5 million isn't unreasonable for a solid backup PF/C, but Smith seems injury-prone after having three major surgeries in the past six years.
