Yves Missi to Miss Consecutive Games Due to Illness, Status for Mavericks Matchup Confirmed

New Orleans Pelicans starting center Yves Missi will be sidelined for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks due to an illness. This marks his second consecutive absence, as he also missed Tuesday's win over the Hornets. His continued absence impacts the Pelicans' lineup, with Jordan Poole and Kevon Looney moving into the starting lineup in his stead, alongside Zion Williamson's recent hamstring strain. The team will need to navigate without their starting big man for the immediate future.
