* Zion Williamson medical update released Tuesday afternoon
The length of New Orleans’ injury list has improved a bit recently, with the likes of forwards Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart and Herbert Jones having returned to action after missing games, which also created a couple shifts in Willie Green’s starting lineup. The Pelicans have relied on four different combinations for their first string through 15 games.
Of course, to get back to full strength and put the planned 2021-22 starting five on the floor, they’ll need Zion Williamson (right foot fracture) to eventually make his season debut.
