Jaxson Hayes is moving into the starting lineup for the New Orleans Pelicans matchup against the Denver Nuggets.
He’ll start alongside CJ McCollum, Herb Jones, Trey Murphy and Jonas Valanciunas, sending Dyson Daniels to the bench.
Brandon Ingram (left big toe contusion) and Naji Marshall (right big toe soreness) are out, but Willie Green said to pregame media that he is “definitely hopeful” about Ingram’s availability tomorrow against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
There was also news of a positive update on Zion Williamson. The results of his latest imaging showed that Williamson’s hamstring is healing as expected and he is making good progress with his recovery.
