Withey (coach's decision) didn't see the floor in Wednesday's 100-96 loss to the Pelicans.

Analysis:

Withey hasn't played in any of the last six games, as coach Quin Snyder hasn't needed the seven-footer's size and shot-blocking prowess now that both Rudy Gobert and Derrick Favors are back to full health. Since Withey isn't mobile enough to play any position other than center and coach Quin Snyder often uses Favors at the position when Gobert sits, there simply isn't room in the rotation for the former Kansas standout.
