Anthony Davis is back after resting in Friday’s game against the Trail Blazers. However, it will be more interesting to monitor just how much run Alvin Gentry will allot Julius Randle, Elfrid Payton and Frank Jackson after playing 42, 41 and 36 minutes respectively last night and who then soaks up that available court time.
The Pelicans head coach explicitly stated to pregame media that Julius will not come close to matching yesterday’s workload against the Trail Blazers and hinted that Cheick Diallo should directly benefit.
