Analysis:

While this isn't a good sign for Beverley's chances to play in Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, it's still entirely possible he could make it to New Orleans for the contest. If not, Jason Terry and Pablo Prigioni will likely see added minutes, with James Harden taking on even more of the ball-handling workload. Beverley suffered the injury during the third quarter of Monday's win over the Pacers, and he did not return to the contest. He has also been bothered by an elbow issue for the past few games.
