Norris Cole (back) questionable as Pelicans prepare for Friday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Norris Cole (back) is being listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers.

What It Means:

The Pelicans continue to list Cole as questionable despite the fact he hasn't played since March 7. With the Pelicans playing for Ping-Pong balls, there's no reason to believe Cole will return to the court this season.

Cole has struggled to a -5.2 nERD this season, which ranks 122nd. He's averaging 10.6 points, 3.7 assists and 3.4 rebounds per game while posting a 46.5 True Shooting Percentage.
