Pelicans' Hawkins out 1-2 weeks with back strain
Written by I Dig SportsNew Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Hawkins will be sidelined one to two weeks with a low back strain, the team said Friday.
The second-year player is averaging 16.3 points and 4.5 rebounds in eight games (three starts) this season.
Hawkins, 22, did not take the court for Monday's 118-100 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers and played a season-low 18:30 in Wednesday's 131-122 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
He averaged 7.8 points in 67 games last season as a rookie after being selected with the 14th pick in the 2023 NBA draft out of UConn.
