Cole (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Pacers.

Analysis:

Cole has been bothered by a lower-back injury of late, having missed the Pelicans' last eight games. His status for Thursday's game is up in the air, but another absence from Cole would leave the Pelicans quite undermanned, considering that they're already without Anthony Davis (knee/shoulder), Ryan Anderson (groin), Tyreke Evans (knee), and Eric Gordon (finger). Jrue Holiday, Toney Douglas, and Tim Frazier figure to see most of the minutes in the backcourt if Cole is ruled out again Thursday.
