Bobby Marks: Here are the 4 that have earned bonuses so far: - Khris Middleton: $1.79M (games played) - Derrick White: $1.75M (games or minutes) - Kevin Durant: $1.43M (All-Star) - Saddiq Bey: $111K (games played) Middleton and Bey were deemed unlikely before the season.
NBA Communications: Other nominees… West: Saddiq Bey (NOP), Luka Dončić (LAL), Kevin Durant (HOU) and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (OKC) East: Jalen Brunson (NYK), Cade Cunningham (DET), Jonathan Kuminga (ATL), Tyrese Maxey (PHI) and Brandon Miller (CHA)
Oleh Kosel: Pelicans beat 76ers 126-111. They outscored Philly 69-46 in the second half. Feels like a top-3 win of season. (Perhaps comebacks versus Houston and Minnesota only rank higher?) Jordan Poole: 23 PTS, 5 3s, 5 AST; Zion Williamson: 21 PTS, 8 AST; Saddiq Bey: 20 PTS, 4 3s; DeAndre Jordan: 6 PTS, 15 REB
Will Guillory: Final: Pelicans 114, Grizzlies 106 Another strong performance from the Pels with most of their guys healthy. Derik Queen had 22 pts, 9 rebounds and 7 assists. Saddiq Bey had 22 points and 8 rebounds. Zion Williamson had 21 points on 7-10 shooting. Pels improve to 3-1 over their last 4 games. They're starting to figure some things out on both ends of the floor.

The Los Angeles Lakers have gauged the trade market looking for 3-and-D wing help, with targets ranging from Herb Jones to Andrew Wiggins to Jonathan Kuminga to Saddiq Bey, etcetera.

NBA Communications: Other nominees… West: Saddiq Bey (NOP), Kevin Durant (HOU), Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (OKC), James Harden (LAC) and Naji Marshall (DAL) East: Bam Adebayo and Norman Powell (MIA), Jalen Duren (DET), Jalen Johnson (ATL), Donovan Mitchell (CLE) and Coby White (CHI)

Brad Rowland: Okongwu is questionable for Atlanta, with Young ruled out. Trey Murphy and Herb Jones are questionable for New Orleans. Alvarado, Bey, and Murray are out.
Underdog NBA: Saddiq Bey (hip) ruled out Friday.
The time spent recovering forced Saddiq Bey to re-engage with the game from the outside, studying impact beyond scoring and usage. “Watching the game, man, and just learning a lot of the intricate details in the game of where I could impact when I come back,” Bey said. “And then off the court, man, just real spiritually, like having to really humble myself in life in general and knowing that the game can be taken away from you so quick, man. So, I learned a lot through that process.”
Saddiq Bey: “I work on everything every game and every year. So I make sure that no matter what the team needs, I’m able to fulfill that role. So for me, when it's like whatever the team’s been needing, I’ve been trying to fulfill that.”
