Pelicans' DeMarcus Cousins: Questionable Sunday with ankle sprain

Cousins is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Nuggets with a right ankle sprain.

Analysis:

It's not clear when Cousins picked up the injury, but it likely occurred at some point during Friday's loss to the Rockets, though he wasn't forced to exit that game early. The Pelicans will likely update Cousins' status after Sunday morning's shootaround, providing a better idea of whether or not he'll be good to go. If Cousins ends up being held out Sunday, Dante Cunningham would be the most likely candidate to start at power forward in his stead.
