- The New Orleans Pelicans' All-Star forward Brandon Ingram is not convinced that the National Basketball Association restart will go off without a hitch.

The 22-year-old is averaging a career-best 24.3 points in 56 games in his first season with the Pelicans."I think it's going to be a day-by-day thing," said the 22-year-old, who is averaging seven assists and a career-best 12.4 points in 56 games also in his maiden campaign with New Orleans. As the Pelicans prepare to travel ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex near Orlando, the status of 65-year-old coach Alvin Gentry still has not been firmed up. Because of his age, he is viewed as being in the at-risk group by the NBA due to the Covid-19 outbreak running rampant in Florida.Another assistant, 67-year-old Jeff Bzdelik, will not be travelling to Orlando.They are 31/2 games behind the eighth-place Memphis Grizzlies, who currently hold the final Western Conference play-off spot.

The 30-year-old has not played this season since rupturing his right Achilles in August. He averages 6.0 points per game in 253 NBA games , since joining New Orleans for the 2012-13 campaign in the first of two stints with the franchise.
