re: Tyreke having surgery??? (Rumor)

Of course Eric Gordon is on the injury list, story of his NO career!

Against the Rockets, the plan is to rest forward Anthony Davis, and six other Pelicans — Tyreke Evans (who’s having his knee examined), Quincy Pondexter (recovering from knee surgery), Omer Asik (calf strain), Norris Cole (ankle sprain) and Luke Babbitt and Alexis Ajinca (hamstring strains) — are out.

Eric Gordon (back spasms) is questionable. He has missed the past two games but likely would have played if they had been regular-season games, Gentry said.

“It’s just one of those things,” he said. “Guys play hard and sometimes injuries happen, and then guys play hard and sometimes there’s no injuries at all. Last year when I was at Golden State, we had very few injuries at all. That didn’t mean that we didn’t play hard. We probably played as hard as any team in the league.”
