Bryce McGowens sets career high in loss to Lakers
by Bruno Mulé | Pelicans Correspondent | Mon, Dec 1st 9:03am EST
Injuries to Trey Murphy, Herb Jones, and Jordan Hawkins cleared the path for Bryce McGowens to make his second consecutive start in Sunday's loss to the Lakers. The wing capitalized on the extended run, establishing a new career high with 23 points on 9-of-18 shooting. He rounded out a strong all-around effort with seven rebounds, five assists, and three three-pointers.
Fantasy Impact:
McGowens’ offensive explosion was a direct result of the depleted depth chart, which makes his fantasy outlook for Week 7 uncertain. His streaming appeal is entirely dependent on Murphy's status; if the veteran returns for Tuesday's contest against the Timberwolves, McGowens will likely see his role—and fantasy value—evaporate.
