Pelicans at Knicks preseason finale: JJ Redick moves into starting lineup, replacing injured Zion Williamson

With Zion Williamson out for the foreseeable future due to a right knee injury, Alvin Gentry is going to wrap up the Pelicans preseason schedule by taking a closer look at small ball.

According to Andrew Lopez of ESPN, JJ Redick is expected to join Jrue Holiday, Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram and Derrick Favors in the starting lineup tonight against the Knicks.

It’ll be interesting to watch if New Orleans can hold their own on the glass and in the paint as the Pelicans will be giving up a lot of size at the majority of positions.
