Pelicans' Alexis Ajinca: Double-doubles in another start

Ajinca posted 12 points (3-6 FG, 6-8 FT), 10 rebounds, three steals and two blocks across 35 minutes during a 95-91 win over the Grizzlies on Wednesday.

Analysis:

Ajinca got his second start in a row and took advantage by tallying his first double-double of the season across a season-high 35 minutes. The three steals were also a season best. Both Dante Cunningham (personal) and Terrence Jones (thumb) were sidelined, opening the door for Ajinca to take on more of a workload. Cunningham and Jones should return to action soon, so don't put too much stock in this performance.
