Derick E. Hingle / USA TODAY Sports

After missing the last two contests with a stomach illness, New Orleans Pelicans power forward Ryan Anderson will return to the lineup Monday against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Anderson has been an integral part of the Pelicans' offense this season, ranking second on the team in points per game (18.0) and 3-pointers made per game (2.1).

The Pelicans' season has gotten off to a rough start, with the 27-year-old's name appearing in trade rumors recently. With four road games this week, New Orleans will face a tough task as it attempts to get back in the win column.
