    Pelicans' Jeremiah Robinson-Earl: Iffy for Monday
    2h ago

    Robinson-Earl is questionable for Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder due to a left ankle sprain.

    It's unclear when Robinson-Earl suffered the injury, as he's played only five minutes across the first three games of the opening-round series and didn't see any action during Saturday's Game 3 loss. If Robinson-Earl is ruled out, his absence shouldn't impact the Pelicans' rotation.

    Pelicans' Zion Williamson: Remains out, but making progress
    2h ago

    Williamson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder.

    There was optimism that Williamson could return at some point in the postseason if New Orleans advanced, and that remains true as coach Willie Green said Sunday morning the superstar forward was cleared for stationary basketball drills, per Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans. However, Williamson still isn't running and remains out while rehabbing a left hamstring strain he suffered during the team's first Play-In Tournament game against the Lakers. The Pelicans season will be on the line Monday, so the positive update on Williamson may be for naught.
