Tyreke Evans to test knee in 2 weeks time following on-the-court activities with Pelicans

During a luncheon today at the New Orleans Quarterback Club, Dell Demps attempted to give some clarification on the injury recovery timetables for both Tyreke Evans and Quincy Pondexter.

According to Justin Verrier, Evans started on-the-court activities this past Saturday with the team. While it sounds like great news, an appearance on the sidelines is still weeks away and a return date far from certain. The Pelicans will re-evaluate Evans’ progress in two weeks — likely hope and pray his knee doesn’t suffer any sort of setback — and perhaps finally then be able to narrow a still rather large window for his return.
