The Pelicans were without Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram. They lost Dyson Daniels to injury. They trailed by 19 points.
They came oh so close to beating Nikola Jokic and the No. 1 Nuggets thanks to Jose, Larry and Willy, losing by a single point. https://t.co/rLaqEUiNod pic.twitter.com/m4Mfu86DLz – 1:25 AM

It’s going to be at least another two weeks before we see Zion. The good news is that Brandon Ingram will be back soon. Hopefully, Willie Green indicated, Ingram can return tomorrow. nola.com/sports/pelican… – 7:00 PM

Willie Green says Brandon Ingram (left big toe contusion) will not play tonight. Neither will Naji Marshall (right big toe soreness).
Green wouldn’t commit to Ingram playing tomorrow but there is optimism he could return then. – 6:22 PM

Brandon Ingram, listed as doubtful tomorrow, is likely to play on the upcoming home stand. The Pelicans need him back. Badly. And in the second of the season, Ingram and Zion — who have played 12 games together in the Willie Green era — need reps. nola.com/sports/pelican… – 6:04 PM

Brandon Ingram went through a full 5-on-5 practice today, per Willie Green. He’s participated in several practices now, which is something he needed to do in order to return to playing status.
“He had a good day today. We’ll see how he bounces back.” – 2:56 PM

Jim Eichenhofer: Brandon Ingram: “I feel like I’m a fresher body than everybody else. Everybody is beat up. I’ve had a chance to let my body rest for a little bit. Maybe the first few games (back) will be (difficult) for conditioning.” -via Twitter @Jim_Eichenhofer / January 23, 2023
