Pelicans' Nikola Mirotic (hip) expected to return Tuesday following one-game absence
New Orleans Pelicans forward Nikola Mirotic is expected to play Tuesday night, reports Scott Kushner of The Advocate.
What It Means:
After missing Saturday's game, Mirotic entered today questionable, but he appears healthy enough to go, says head coach Alvin Gentry. He'll assume his usual spot off the bench as Emeka Okafor and Cheick Diallo see reduced minutes with his return to the floor.
Our models have Mirotic down for 24.3 minutes and 27 FanDuel points at a $5,600 price tag as he takes on the Portland Trail Blazers this evening.
