After a great summer that included signing E’Twaun Moore and other solid role players, the New Orleans Pelicans have yet again been handed a tough hand to start the season.
Starting point guard Jrue Holiday will not be with the team to start the campaign, due to being with his wife during trying times. The next capable player to start in his place is Tyreke Evans. However, Evans is suffering a right knee injury. It will keep him out to begin the upcoming year.
The season has yet to begin and the Pelicans have lost two of their floor generals.
