Pelicans' Jose Alvarado: Scores 13 points with two steals
Jose Alvarado (elbow) returned to Thursday's game and finished with 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, two steals and two turnovers across 22 minutes in a 125-116 loss to the Timberwolves.Alvarado suffered a stinger to his left elbow late in the fourth quarter that caused him to retreat to the locker room, but he checked back into the game a short while later and was on the floor for the final two minutes of regulation, so it seems like he's fine. Alvarado has scored in double figures and hit multiple triples in three straight, and he'll look to make it four in a row Saturday in Brooklyn.

Pelicans' Jose Alvarado: Headed to locker room
Jose Alvarado went to the locker room during Thursday's game versus the Timberwolves, Rod Walker of The Times-Picayune reports.Alvarado got tangled up with Julius Randle fighting for a loose ball and seemed to tweak something in his left elbow. He appeared to be in a great deal of pain and ran straight back to the locker room, so he should be considered doubtful to return with just seven minutes left in regulation.

Pelicans' Jose Alvarado: Vintage performance in win
Jose Alvarado chipped in 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt), six assists, three rebounds and two steals over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 116-112 win over the Hornets.Alvarado was back to his best Tuesday, delivering easily his best performance of the season. After failing to score more than five points in each of the first five games, an 18-point performance was just what the doctor ordered. We have seen games like this from Alvarado in the past, making him someone to at least keep an eye on moving forward. With that said, managers are within their rights to be skeptical, given that these performances are often outliers when viewed as part of the bigger picture.

Pelicans' Jose Alvarado: Rips away two steals in 22 minutes
Jose Alvarado closed with five points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals across 22 minutes during Monday's 122-90 loss to the Celtics.Alvarado didn't log a single second through the New Orleans Pelicans' first two games of the season, but with New Orleans showing a lackadaisical effort on defense Monday night, Grand Theft Alvarado was finally tagged in. He did do a good job of shifting their energy and effort on defense, so it'll be interesting to see if he can remain in the rotation for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
