Good news for the Pelicans: Shams Charania announces that CJ McCollum is very close to a return to play. Victim of a pneumothorax, the leader could play again Wednesday, against the Sixers, or Friday, against the Spurs.
Damian Lillard’s former friend at the Blazers would then have only missed three and a half weeks of competition.
A rapid return which adds to the good period of the New Orleans players, who have won six of their last eight matches, with a Brandon Ingram – Zion Williamson who combines better and better.
With 9 wins for 8 losses, the Pelicans are currently in 9th place in the Western Conference.
