Evans' Knee Surgery Successful, No Timetable for Return

Thursday, May 21

The Pelicans announced that the 25-year-old star underwent arthroscopic knee surgery Wednesday and that a timetable for his return to basketball activities will be determined soon.

The former University of Memphis standout averaged 16.6 points, 6.6 assists and 5.3 rebounds as a complement to Anthony Davis in his second season with the Pelicans.

He figures to be a huge part of what is an up-and-coming team in 2015-16 and beyond, which is likely why all parties involved decided to go through with the surgery so early in the offseason.
