Jrue Holiday (elbow) uncertain for Pelicans on Thursday
New Orleans Pelicans point guard Jrue Holiday (left elbow tricep strain) is uncertain of his status for Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz.
What It Means:
Holiday, who missed the past five games, was a non-contact participant at Wednesday's practice. Pelicans head coach Alvin Gentry previously said Holiday would probably return on Thursday, but it sounds like that's in the air. Josh Hart has been filling in as a starter.
Holiday is averaging 39.5 FanDuel points per game. numberFire's models project him for 20.1 points, 4.8 rebounds, 7.1 assists, 1.6 steals, 0.6 blocks, and 1.3 3-pointers over the rest of the season.
