Zion Williamson

Williamson exited Saturday's win over the Jazz during the second quarter and did not return. He has appeared in a career-best 35 straight games, so continuing that streak may be a motivating factor for Zion to play on Sunday. If he doesn't play, Trey Murphy (shoulder) is available and can slide into that spot in the starting lineup.

Murphy is back after missing the last five games with a right shoulder contusion. Sunday's game will be the first this season that he and Dejounte Murray (Achilles) have played together. If Zion Williamson (ankle) can't play, Saddiq Bey and DeAndre Jordan should remain in the starting lineup. One will likely head to the bench if Zion plays.

Williamson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Clippers.

With Dejounte Murray (Achilles) sitting out the first game of New Orleans' weekend back-to-back, McGowens was inserted into the starting lineup on Saturday. And he was productive, shooting 4-of-10 from beyond the arc. The 18 points were the most in a game for McGowens since January 7, when he dropped 20 in a loss to the Hawks. Even if Murray is available for Sunday's game against the Clippers, McGowens may remain a starter, as Zion Williamson left Saturday's victory during the first half with a sprained ankle.

Pelicans forward Zion Williamson "tweaked his ankle" and was forced to leave Saturday's win over the Jazz in the second quarter.
