Theis (neck) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Thunder, Erin Summers of the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Theis will be sidelined for a second straight game due to neck spasms, and he could be in jeopardy of missing a third in the second leg of the Pelicans' back-to-back against the Spurs on Sunday. Jeremiah Robinson-Earl will be New Orleans' main backup center to Yves Missi on Saturday, though Trey Jemison could also see some playing time due to Theis' injury.

Theis totaled three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds and one steal across 13 minutes during Monday's 124-112 loss to the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
Theis continues to be a non-factor, as he's scored in single digits in every game this season. After starting the first five games, his role has shifted to that of a backup. In 17 games he is averaging just 3.5 points and 3.4 rebounds in 14.3 minutes per game. It is clear that Theis simply isn't the player he once was.

Theis is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Raptors, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Theis will head back to the bench after two straight starts, as Yves Missi will recover his role in the starting lineup. Theis is averaging a mere 3.3 points and 2.8 rebounds per game when coming off the bench this season, so he shouldn't have a lot of fantasy appeal in most formats.

Theis (ankle) is available but will play off the bench during Friday's game against the Pacers, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Theis played only five minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Warriors before sustaining an ankle injury. While he's fine to play Friday, the veteran will make way for rookie Yves Missi, who'll be making his first career start.

Theis (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
Theis played only five minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Warriors before sustaining an ankle injury. However, the issue was minor, and he's expected to be in the starting lineup Friday. Despite being a starter, Theis averaged only 18.8 minutes per game through his first four regular-season appearances.
