Pelicans' E'Twaun Moore: Listed as probable for Thursday

Moore (heel) has been upgraded to probable for Thursday's exhibition finale versus the Magic.

Analysis:

Moore has dealt with a bruised heel over the past week and ended up missing the Pelicans' previous game against the Hawks on Tuesday. He's progressed enough in his recovery to be listed as probable, so it's safe to assume he's over the injury. Moore is competing with rookie Buddy Hield for rights to open the season as the team's starting shooting guard, but as it currently stands, Moore appears to be the favorite.
