Pelicans' E'Twaun Moore: Downgraded to questionable Tuesday

Moore (ankle) has been downgraded from probable to questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Lakers, Justin Verrier of ESPN reports.

Analysis:

Moore was sidelined for Saturday's loss to the Warriors due to a minor left ankle sprain and it was expected that he would take the floor Tuesday against the Lakers after two days of rest. But, his condition seemingly hasn't improved as much as Moore and the Pelicans were anticipating, resulting in him being downgraded to questionable. It's unclear whether or not he would return to the starting five if he's cleared to play. The team could opt to send out Saturday's starting backcourt duo of Jrue Holiday and Tim Frazier once more, regardless of Moore's status.
