Alexis Ajinca will start for the Pelicans against Orlando on Tuesday

Ajinca will start for the Pelicans against Orlando on Tuesday, broadcaster John Kelley reports.

Analysis:

Ajinca has only averaged 10 minutes per game so far this season but will start Tuesday. The Pelicans are riddled with injuries which is the reason for Ajinca getting into the starting lineup. Expect him to see a lot of minutes with both Omer Asic and Kendrick Perkins out.
