The Pelicans and Wizards will do battle later today, but the excitement level has been curtailed noticeably by events in recent days for New Orleans fans.
This was supposed to be a matchup between a couple of teams featuring two top 2022 draft picks. A sprained right ankle sustained in the first game is expected to keep Dyson Daniels out of action for the rest of summer league.
While Johnny Davis will be on the floor for the Wizards, the Pelicans will also be without E.J. Liddell, and unfortunately his injury sits on the frightful end of the spectrum.
