New York recalled Ryan from the G League's Westchester Knicks on Thursday.
Ryan, Tyler Kolek and Pacome Dadiet were all assigned Thursday morning before being recalled in the afternoon.

Knicks' Matt Ryan: Signs deal with Knicks
Ryan agreed to a contract with the Knicks on Monday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Ryan was recently selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 G League Draft by the Knicks' affiliate in Westchester, but he'll get moved up to the parent club to fill the 14th spot on the 15-man roster. A career 41.1 percent shooter from beyond the arc over parts of three seasons in the NBA, Ryan will provide the Knicks with additional floor spacing, but he's not guaranteed to be regularly featured in head coach Tom Thibodeau's rotation.

Matt Ryan: Goes No. 1 to Westchester
Ryan was selected by the Knicks with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 G League Draft on Saturday.
Ryan will join Westchester for the 2024-25 campaign, though he is a candidate to be called up to the NBA squad. The sharpshooter was let go by New Orleans on Oct. 10 after signing a one-year pact prior to the season. The 27-year-old averaged 5.4 points and 1.4 rebounds across 13.9 minutes in 28 regular-season appearances last year with the Pelicans. Ryan has also shot 41.1 percent from three in his limited playing time over his three-year career.

Pelicans' Matt Ryan: Returning to New Orleans
The Pelicans signed Ryan to a one-year pact Monday, Sam Amico of HoopsWire.com reports.
The Pelicans are re-signing Ryan to a restructured deal after letting him go Friday. 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.

Matt Ryan: Let go by New Orleans
The Pelicans are waiving Ryan on Friday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Ryan made 28 regular-season appearances including one start for the Pelicans in 2023-24 and averaged 5.4 points and 1.4 rebounds in 13.9 minutes. The 26-year-old forward displayed impressive efficiency from beyond the arc, converting 45.1 percent of his 3.3 three-point attempts per contest. However, Ryan will head into the 2024-25 campaign as a free agent.

Pelicans' Matt Ryan: Fails to score Saturday
Ryan amassed zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one steal over three minutes during Saturday's 106-85 loss to the Thunder in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Ryan failed to score in his three minutes, adding to what was a terrible night for New Orleans. Playing in front of their home fans, the Pelicans offered little resistance. Now on the brink of elimination, New Orleans will look to turn things around Monday in the hope of sending the series back to Oklahoma City.

Pelicans' Matt Ryan: Upgraded to standard deal
The Pelicans signed Ryan to a standard NBA contract Saturday.
Since the Pelicans claimed him off waivers from the Timberwolves in October, Ryan has spent the entire 2023-24 campaign as one of New Orleans' three two-way players. Heading into Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Lakers, Ryan has appeared in 27 games (one start) while averaging 5.6 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.5 three-pointers in 14.4 minutes per contest. While Ryan isn't expected to be part of New Orleans' rotation during the team's upcoming playoff run, his conversion from a two-way deal to a standard NBA contract at least ensures that he'll be eligible to play during the postseason.

Pelicans' Matt Ryan: Rare appearance in loss
Ryan closed with no counting stats in zero minutes during Wednesday's 117-108 loss to the Magic.
Ryan barely saw the floor again Wednesday, cracking the rotation for just the fifth time in the past 11 games. During that time, he has played a combined 21 minutes, tallying five total points. Barring a number of injuries to other players, Ryan should remain on waivers in all formats.

Ryan ended Thursday's 121-106 loss to the Magic with two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt) in six minutes.
Ryan dealt with an illness ahead of Thursday's matchup but still saw a few minutes of playing time off the bench. The 26-year-old has been an inconsistent part of the Pelicans' rotation this year and is unlikely to be a major contributor down the stretch.

Pelicans' Matt Ryan: Questionable for Thursday

Pelicans' Matt Ryan: Drains two triples
Ryan posted six points (2-2 FG, 2-2 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across 12 minutes during Tuesday's 115-92 win over the Knicks.
Ryan dropped in two three-pointers Tuesday, seeing minutes for the third time in the past four games. While he has been able to carve out a rotation spot, it comes as a result of injuries to other players rather than his impressive play. Outside of being a speculative stream option for threes, he holds no sustainable fantasy value.
