A New Orleans team that has played the last two games shorthanded has a chance to get some of its injured players back Sunday, when the Pelicans visit the Houston Rockets at 7 p.m. (Bally Sports, ESPN 100.3 FM).
New Orleans top three scorers Zion Williamson (right thumb sprain), Brandon Ingram (right first MTP irritation), Lonzo Ball (right hip flexor strain) are all listed as questionable on Saturday’s official injury report. Meanwhile, Josh Hart (right thumb sprain) has been ruled out of the game in Houston. Kira Lewis Jr. (right calf strain) is doubtful.
Earlier Saturday, the Pelicans announced they had signed former All-Star guard Isaiah Thomas to a 10-day contract.
