With the return of Josh Hart and Tomas Satoransky to team activities and practice Monday afternoon, New Orleans’ official injury report listed its fewest names in recent weeks, as the Pelicans get closer to full strength.
Ahead of Tuesday’s 7 p.m. home game vs. Minnesota, three players are listed as out, including Kira Lewis Jr. (right knee ACL/MCL sprain), Didi Louzada (league suspension) and Zion Williamson (right foot fracture).
Satoransky cleared the NBA’s health and safety protocols, while Hart missed Sunday’s game at Toronto, but rejoined the Pelicans at Monday’s practice.
