Analysis:
Holiday has been on a minutes restriction all preseason, as the Pelicans want to avoid causing any injury flare ups to the right leg that has given him some problems over his first two seasons with New Orleans. He'll get the night off to start the season and should be considered probable for Wednesday's matchup with the Trail Blazers. Nate Robinson should start in his place at point guard.
