NEW ORLEANS — Pelicans high-scoring ahead Brandon Ingram has a bone bruise in his left knee that’s anticipated to sideline him no less than two weeks, the crew introduced Friday.
Ingram hyperextended his knee throughout Thursday night time’s loss in Orlando and was helped off the courtroom.
He underwent an imaging in a single day, after which crew docs decided the extent of the damage.
The prognosis for Ingram, who’s averaging 20.9 factors, leaves open the likelihood that he may return earlier than the top of the common season. The Pelicans (43-27) are within the thick of the Western Convention playoff image.
The Pelicans say they anticipate updates on Ingram’s readiness after he’s reevaluated in two weeks.
