Pelicans' Jose Alvarado: Set for checkup in three weeks
The New Orleans Pelicans announced Tuesday that Jose Alvarado has been diagnosed with a left hamstring strain and will be re-evaluated in approximately three weeks.Earlier Tuesday, Shams Charania of ESPN reported that Alvarado would be sidelined for six weeks due to the injury the point guard suffered in Monday's 107-105 loss to the Nets. While the timeline provided by Charania could ultimately hold up, the Pelicans will wait and see where Alvarado is at in his recovery once he's re-evaluated in early December before a potential target date for his return to game action may come into the focus. In any case, Alvarado's multi-week absence represents another hit to the Pelicans' backcourt depth, which has already been tested early on this season with CJ McCollum (adductor), Dejounte Murray (hand) and Jordan Hawkins (back) currently sidelined with injuries of their own. Until at least one of Murray, McCollum or Alvarado returns to action, Brandon Boston and Brandon Ingram are likely to operate as the Pelicans' main ball handlers.

Pelicans' Jose Alvarado: Expected to miss six weeks
Jose Alvarado is expected to miss six weeks after suffering a left hamstring strain in Monday's 107-105 loss to the Nets, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.The injury forced Alvarado out of Monday's contest with 7:14 remaining in the third quarter, but he checked back into the game with 10:06 left in the fourth quarter before exiting for good at the 7:34 mark. The point guard was apparently sent in for further evaluation following the contest, and after being diagnosed with a hamstring strain, he will likely be sidelined until late December or early January. With Alvarado joining CJ McCollum (adductor), Herbert Jones (shoulder), Jordan Hawkins (back), Zion Williamson (hamstring) and Dejounte Murray (hand) among New Orleans Pelicans rotation players nursing long-term injuries, Brandon Boston and Brandon Ingram are likely to operate as the Pelicans' primary playmakers for the foreseeable future. Alvarado's absence could also open up more minutes for depth guards such as Jaylen Nowell and Antonio Reeves.
