No Update Yet on Missi's Left Leg

Already covered the moment itself Friday — Yves Missi going down in the second quarter in Utah, needing help off the floor. Nothing has changed on the information side since then. The Pelicans have not released a diagnosis or a timeline.

That's where things stand. For a team that spent the offseason shoring up its offensive commitments — Bey's extension, Murphy alongside him — losing the starting center early in the year would be a different kind of problem, one that doesn't have an obvious in-house answer based on what's available right now.

Worth watching the next few days for any imaging results or practice availability. Until New Orleans says something, there's nothing to do but wait.
