Babbitt (hamstring) has missed the Pelicans' last two preseason games.

Analysis:

The Pelicans haven't relayed a timetable for Babbitt's return since he strained his left hamstring in a preseason tilt with the Bulls last week. He'll need to return to practice by Thursday if he hopes to see the court again before the Pelicans' exhibition schedule concludes with Friday's matchup against the Heat.
