Miller will come off the bench Saturday against the Spurs, Tom Osborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the Pelicans' frontcourt decimated, Miller started Thursday's game against the Thunder. However, with E'Twaun Moore (rest) back in the fold, Miller will return to his usual role off the bench. Over the past six games, he's averaging 8.8 points and 2.5 rebounds in 30.5 minutes.

Miller produced 21 points (8-17 FG, 5-11 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, and one block in 38 minutes during Thursday's 122-116 loss to the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Miller matched his career high in scoring and amassed a season high rebounding total, breaking an eight-game streak of single-digit scoring performances in the process. It's the third time in his last 17 appearances that Miller has scored at least 20 points while draining at least five threes, and he stepped up as the starter in this one with E'Twaun Moore (rest), Julius Randle (ankle), Nikola Mirotic (calf), and Anthony Davis (finger) sidelined. With Mirotic and Davis already ruled out for Saturday's matchup with the Spurs, Miller is likely in line for another helping of heavy minutes.

Miller will start Thursday's game against the Thunder, Andrew Lopez of the Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
With E'Twaun Moore resting, Miller will move into the lineup at small forward, with Julius Randle and Jahlil Okafor presumably joining him in the frontcourt. With Moore -- as well as Anthony Davis and Nikola Mirotic -- out, Miller could be set for an increase in playing time. Over his last 10 games, he's averaging just a shade over 28 minutes per game.

Miller (illness) will move to the bench Monday against the Timberwolves, Andrew Lopez of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller came into Monday's game with an illness tag but had already been cleared to play earlier in the day. The return of Elfrid Payton (finger) ultimately will force Miller out of the starting five, although it will still be possible for him to keep averaging just over 25 minutes per game.

Miller (illness) is available to play Monday against the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Miller has been cleared to rejoin the starting five after missing Saturday's game against the Rockets due to an illness. Over his last five games, Miller is averaging 9.0 points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 29.2 minutes.

Miller (illness) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Miller missed Saturday's game against the Rockets with an illness, however his probable designation indicates that he seems to be improving. Barring any setbacks, he should be back in the lineup, and a final call will be made prior to Monday's game.

Miller (illness) is out Saturday against the Rockets, Scott Kushner of The New Orleans Advocate reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller is too sick to play Saturday, leaving the Pelicans even thinner. In Miller's absence, Solomon Hill, E'Twaun Moore and Wesley Johnson are candidates to see extra minutes.

Miller is questionable for Saturday's matchup with the Rockets due to an illness, Andrew Lopez of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller got the spot start in Friday's win over the Mavs, but was unable to play in the second half due to the same illness that has him questionable Saturday. Solomon Hill and E'Twaun Moore would presumably be in line for slightly heavier workloads should he ultimately be unable to go, but expect an update closer to tip-off.
