BREAKING: Zion Williamson, CJ McCollum, Julius Randle Status For The Pelicans-Knicks Game, 2/27
NEW ORLEANS - On Tuesday night, the New Orleans Pelicans (34-24) cannot afford to drop another game as they take on the New York Knicks (35-23) at Madison Square Garden.
Zion Williamson (left ankle) and CJ McCollum (left foot) are questionable for tonight's contest. Brandon Ingram will again be the bell cow for the Pelicans after his 22 points, six assists, and three rebounds outing in Sunday's loss to the Bulls.
Dyson Daniels will miss another game after having left knee surgery. The spark plug guard Jose Alvarado is sitting out his second game due to league suspension following his entanglement with the Miami Heat on Friday night.
The New York Knicks list Mitchell Robinson (Left Ankle; Surgery) as OUT, Julius Randle (Right Shoulder; Dislocated) as OUT, and OG Anunoby (Right Elbow; Surgery) to be OUT of the game against New Orleans.
New York narrowly defeated Detroit 113-111 in a highly controversial game. The Pistons' coach openly questioned the officiating during his press conference.
Julius Randle's rehab is "going well, his goal is still to play this season..." Shams Charania said on FanDuelTV.
