Tyreke Evans is set to return next week

It appears an initial time frame of returning around Thanksgiving will come to fruition for Tyreke Evans and the New Orleans Pelicans. According to Brett Dawson, Evans stated this morning that he expects to return in one week's time.

After a strenuous workout yesterday, Tyreke was happy to report he suffered no swelling in his troublesome right knee. However, he was quick to report that his usual strength isn't there yet and he needs to face some live competition to test the knee for lateral movement.

If Evans does indeed return a week from today, he will rejoin the Pelicans during an upcoming Western Conference road trip.
