Evans (knee) could make his return Tuesday against the Grizzlies, John Reid of The Times Picayune reports.

Analysis:

Some speculated that Evans would make his season debut Saturday against the Jazz, but after speaking with coach Alvin Gentry prior to the game it was decided the guard would be held out once again. While Evans isn't expected to record many minutes Tuesday, it's a good sign for the Pelicans, as the team has been ravaged by injuries thus far in the season. He will likely be held to a minutes restriction until he's fully healthy.
