Tyreke Evans did not play in Sunday's game due to coach Monty Williams' decision, but the Pelicans have not provided any more details.

Williams described it as "an internal matter" and we'll pass along any more information as it becomes available. The Pelicans play again at Toronto on Monday, so Evans' owners can only hope that whatever caused his DNP-CD was short-lived. Stay tuned.

Asked after the game why he didn’t play, Evans responded by saying, `He (Williams) said it all,’ before declining further comment.

What gives?

Supposedly Monty didn't like the way he played Friday. Monty is single handedly killing this team. I know it's :beatdeadhorse: but he really needs to go.

1) If it were injury related it seems like they'd use injury as an excuse unless they were wanting to embarrass him and let people know he was grounded. Considering he's come back early from injury before this seems pretty unlikely.

2) For the most part Tyreke is getting the minutes and role he signed up for. Maybe there was some argument over his execution of something that blew up, but Tyreke seems to have been a pretty good soldier.

3) Trade. 5 days from now I would lean towards this, today it seems a little early. If we are trading him this early then Demps thought it was a deal he couldn't pass up.

4) He did something bad enough to get a suspension. Maybe he got in a fight with someone, or DUI that they were able to sweep under the rug. Maybe he got his 10th tardy.

I'm leaning toward 3 or 4.

This is falling apart on Monty. So him and Reke have issues and Monty benches him for the game. Then the team comes out and plays like dogshit in the first half. hmmm I smell mutiny. One can only hope.

Tyreke better have killed somebody. If Monty is benching his 2nd best player right now bc his panties are in a wad for something, after the fans have had to put up w his frickin pathetic arse for this long, then frick him and his stinkin arse.

It's just one thing after another with this arrogant frickin clown.

Ok the guy that on friday stat line was 7points 3rebs and 2ass with 3 turnovers in 20 minutes played terrible....



Eric gordon better get zero minutes tomorrow night then! His stat line was 7points 1Reb 2 arse 3TO in 28 minutes! Gordon isnt half the player Reke is and he gets more minutes every game! Reke agreed to a manu role off bench 30+ minutes not a normal backup role or slightly more then that.
