Alexis Ajinca (shoulder) out for Pelicans on Wednesday
New Orleans Pelicans center Alexis Ajinca (shoulder) will not play Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
What It Means:
The Pelicans will only have seven active players tonight, with Omer Asik and Kendrick Perkins the only healthy centers.
Asik and Perkins are woefully inefficient, with Asik's -1.7 nERD ranking 92nd in the NBA while Perkins' -1.9 ranks 94th, and neither make strong fantasy options against the Timberwolves tonight.
