New Orleans Pelicans guard C.J. McCollum (thumb) will return for Tuesday's game against the Denver Nuggets.
The Pelicans held McCollum out of Sunday night's game, but their starting guard will return to the lineup after missing just one game. Jose Alvarado started on Sunday and will likely return to the bench.
Our models project McCollum for 37.1 fantasy points against the Nuggets Tuesday, with 21 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 5.5 assists.
