The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports that McCollum has been out since Oct. 29, having been out for nearly four weeks. That means he will not be playing Tuesday’s game against the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Cup (Nov. 19). 

The Pelicans are one of the teams with the most injury problems up front, with the 33-year-old backcourt also out with Deyonte Murray (hand), Herbert Jones (shoulder), Zion Williamson (hamstring), Jose Alvarado (hamstring) and Jordan Hawkins (back).  Player1688
