It was initially reported by top NBA writer Adrian Wojnarowski that Jrue Holiday’s return to the New Orleans Pelicans is imminent. Alvin Gentry confirmed that report prior to Monday’s home game vs. Boston, saying the Pelicans expect the starting point guard will be back in uniform sometime soon.
“(There is) not anything definite, but it’s probably going to be within a week for sure, maybe even a couple days,” Gentry said. “I did not talk to him today or communicate with him today, but obviously we’ll find out what’s going on.”
Holiday’s return will give New Orleans (1-9) a bona fide No.
