No timetable on return of Jrue Holiday, who with wife Lauren became new parents this week

During his Media Day press conference Friday, Anthony Davis noted that the Pelicans have added another new member to their family. The three-time All-Star power forward delivered the news that Lauren Holiday, wife of New Orleans point guard Jrue Holiday, gave birth to a healthy baby girl in North Carolina this week, the couple’s first child.

Now that Lauren has given birth, doctors say that she will undergo brain surgery in approximately six weeks, in order to remove a benign tumor. In the meantime, Jrue will remain by her side, missing an indefinite portion of the upcoming season.
