Pelicans' Alexis Ajinca: Will play Sunday vs. Bulls

Ajinca (hip) is not listed on the Pelicans' injury report, Chuck Swirsky of Bulls.com reports.

Analysis:

Ajinca sat out Friday's game against the Kings with a hip injury, but it appears it was just a minor ailment and he's officially been given the green light to play. He'll take on his normal bench role, but he typically finds himself outside the regular rotation, so if the game remains competitive, he could find minutes hard to come by.
