Ajinca (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Timberwolves, Justin Verrier of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

Ajinca ended up missing Monday's game against the Bulls due to the right shoulder injury he suffered Saturday against the Suns. With the Pelicans eliminated from the playoffs, they have nothing to gain by forcing Ajinca back if he isn't totally healthy, but the team's injury-depleted roster could end up forcing the big man to take the court in a limited capacity. If Ajinca ends up sitting out, look for Dante Cunningham, Omer Asik, and Kendrick Perkins to see some extra court time.
