Ajinca will get the start Monday, Pelicans.com reports.

Analysis:

With Anthony Davis (shoulder) ruled out, Ajinca will enter the starting five at power forward alongside Omer Asik. The big man played 22 minutes in Saturday's blowout loss to Chicago, posting 10 points and four boards in 22 minutes. He's proven capable of putting up big numbers when given the chance, however, as evidenced by a three-game stretch in January when he averaged 15.3 points and 10.3 rebounds in 28.3 minutes.
