Pelicans' Matt Ryan: Returning to New Orleans
The Pelicans signed Ryan to a one-year pact Monday, Sam Amico of HoopsWire.com reports.

The sharpshooter averaged 5.4 points and 1.4 rebounds across 13.9 minutes in 28 regular-season appearances last year. Ryan will likely continue to provide a spark off the bench, and he shot 45.1 percent from downtown on 2.5 attempts per game last season.

Pelicans' Jose Alvarado: Leads Puerto Rico in Olympic loss
Alvarado ended with 18 points (7-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three assists, one rebound and one steal across 22 minutes in Puerto Rico's 104-83 loss to Team USA in the Paris Olympics on Saturday.
Puerto Rico's Olympic campaign has officially ended with an 0-3 record in Group C. Alvarado led Puerto Rico to an early lead; however, once Team USA got going in the second quarter the game quickly got out of hand. The 26-year-old scored a team-high 18 points in the loss, and he served as the squad's top option throughout the group stage. In three group-phase appearances, Alvarado averaged 15.3 points, 3.0 assists and 1.7 rebounds across 23.7 minutes per game.

Pelicans' Daniel Theis: Comes close to double-double
Theis finished with seven points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists and two steals for Germany in Friday's 85-71 win over France.
Dennis Schroder and Franz Wagner led the way for Germany in the scoring column, but Theis was impressive in other areas, ultimately finishing just two boards and three points shy of a double-double. Theis is expected to remain as Germany's starting center in the knockout stages of the Olympics, keeping Moritz Wagner in a bench role.

Pelicans' Jose Alvarado: Game-high 26 points in loss
Alvarado totaled 26 points (9-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five assists, two rebounds and two steals across 32 minutes in Puerto Rico's 90-79 loss to South Sudan in the Paris Olympics on Sunday.
Despite the loss, Alvarado was stellar against South Sudan and scored a game-high 26 points. The 26-year-old has made a name for himself as a defensive nightmare for opposing backcourts, and he showed his offensive abilities while tying the team high of two steals. In 56 regular-season appearances with the Pelicans last year, Alvarado averaged 7.1 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 18.4 minutes per game.

Pelicans' Daniel Theis: Perfect from field in win
Theis tallied 18 points (7-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and one steal across 20 minutes in Germany's 97-77 win over Japan in the Paris Olympics on Saturday.
Theis impressed with his performance against Japan, racking up a team-high seven boards while shooting 100 percent from the field. The 32-year-old will likely play a significant role in Germany's Olympic campaign, which is also his first appearance at the Olympics. Theis will be asked to excel on the glass and the defensive side of the ball, especially as the squad still has yet to play France's spectacular frontcourt in the group phase.

Pelicans' Jordan Hawkins: Won't return Saturday
Hawkins has been ruled out for the remainder of Saturday's Summer League game against the Nuggets due to a right ankle injury.
Hawkins underwent X-rays after sustaining the injury, which came back negative. Still, the Pelicans will refrain from putting the 22-year-old back into its final Summer League contest. Hawkins will finish the game with three points (0-3 FG, 3-4 FT) and a block across 11 minutes. It's unclear if the injury will impact Hawkins' availability for training camp.

Pelicans' Karlo Matkovic: Sitting out SL finale
Matkovic won't play in Saturday's Summer League game against the Nuggets due to left groin soreness, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
A draft-and-stash player from the 2022 NBA Draft, Matkovic joined the Pelicans' G League affiliate late in the 2023-24 season and has been part of the team's Summer League roster in Las Vegas. With the Pelicans a bit thin in the frontcourt, Matkovic could see occasional playing time during the upcoming season. His groin injury shouldn't impact his availability for training camp.

Pelicans' Yves Missi: Battling back soreness
Missi won't play in Saturday's Summer League game against the Nuggets due to lower back soreness, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
Missi won't suit up for the Pelicans' final Summer League contest as he tends to pain in his lower back. The 20-year-old flashed some of the rim protection and athleticism in Las Vegas that coaxed the Pelicans into selecting him with the 21st overall pick in this year's draft. He should be ready to go for training camp.
