Babbitt (coach's decision) didn't leave the bench in Wednesday's 100-96 win over the Jazz.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt saw 15 minutes of court time in the Pelicans' previous game Monday against the Timberwolves, but that's been his lone appearance over the last seven contests. Even though the Pelicans continue to play without Eric Gordon (finger), Tyreke Evans (knee), and Quincy Pondexter (knee), there's been little effort from coach Alvin Gentry to integrate Babbitt into the rotation.

Babbitt (coach's decision) didn't play in Monday's 101-99 loss to the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt hasn't played in any of the Pelicans' last three games and has made only two appearances since Christmas Day. He'll need an injury to either Dante Cunningham or Alonzo Gee before earning a spot in the Pelicans' rotation.

Babbitt (coach's decision) didn't see the floor in Friday's 94-88 overtime loss to the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt has only appeared in two of the Pelicans' last eight games, seeing a total of 10 minutes during that time. He ranks behind Alonzo Gee and Dante Cunningham on the depth chart at small forward, and will see his playing time plunge further when Quincy Pondexter (knee) returns from injury, likely at some point in January.

Babbitt (coach's decision) hasn't seen the floor in either of the Pelicans' last two games.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt picked up a few starts at small forward earlier this season when the Pelicans were decimated by injuries, but he quickly fell behind Alonzo Gee and Dante Cunningham in the pecking order. With Norris Cole (ankle) and Tyreke Evans (knee) returning to action for their season debuts in Tuesday's loss to the Grizzlies, the Pelicans are as healthy as they've been all season, which means Babbitt's chances of cracking the rotation will become even more difficult.

Babbitt is averaging 6.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.3 three-pointers, and an assist in his four games since joining the Pelicans' starting lineup last week.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt began the season on the injured list with a hamstring ailment, but with the Pelicans dealing with a vast amount of long-term injuries, the small forward has been forced to handle big minutes right away. He's averaging 25 minutes per contest since displacing Dante Cunningham from the starting role, but aside from knocking down three-pointers at a steady clip, he hasn't delivered much overall fantasy appeal.

Babbitt will start at small forward Tuesday against the Magic, broadcaster Sean Kelley reports.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt will be getting his first start of the season Tuesday as Dante Cunningham moves to a role off the bench. It's entirely possible for both players to swap roles as the season progresses, so Babbitt could only have short-term value despite getting the start against Orlando.

Babbitt (hamstring) will be available for Saturday's game against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt was unable to play in the first two games of the season with a left hamstring strain. Although, those issues seem to be fading away as he'll be in line for reserve minutes behind Dante Cunningham on Saturday.

Babbitt (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup with the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt has yet to make his 2015-16 season debut, but is finally nearing a return after dealing with a hamstring injury all October. He's only expected to be a minor rotation player for the Pelicans this year, but with so many current injuries, he could see an increase in his normal allotment of minutes if he's able to play.

Babbitt (hamstring) is out Wednesday night versus Portland, John Reid of NOLA.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt missed the season opener as well. Returning from hamstring injuries can be tricky to predict, but hopefully this won't linger on too long. Look for Alonzo Gee to receive some more minutes as a result of this.

Babbitt (hamstring) is doubtful for the Pelican's tilt Wednesday against Portland, Brett Dawson of the New Orleans Advocate reports.

EDGE Analysis

Babbitt missed the opener along with a portion of the preseason with his hamstring strain. Look for Alonzo Gee, Ryan Anderson, and Dante Cunningham to play a bit more to fill in for Babbitt if he is held out Wednesday.
