Potential Larry Nance Jr. return could lift Pelicans to victory over Bulls

The New Orleans Pelicans are on the verge of getting a timely boost for the final ten games of the regular season schedule.

While Zion Williamson remains without a timetable despite the progress in his recovery and Brandon Ingram is listed as doubtful on the latest injury report, Larry Nance Jr. has been upgraded to probable.

“Larry, it looks like, we’ll have him tomorrow night,” Willie Green said after yesterday’s practice. “We’ll see. He still has to go through shootaround, but it’s looking good.”

Nance, who has missed 18 games after right knee arthroscopy, is chomping at the bit to suit up for the Pelicans since arriving from Portland with CJ McCollum and Tony Snell in the trade deadline deal that shipped out Josh Hart, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and several other players.
