Just when it appeared the New Orleans Pelicans were beginning to regroup after a wave of injuries, leading scorer Brandon Ingram went down Saturday. Ingram landed awkwardly on the foot of Oklahoma City’s Lu Dort early in the third quarter of Saturday night’s 119-109 loss to the Thunder and severely twisted his left ankle.

Ingram had missed six of the Pelicans’ 24 games this season with an assortment of injuries, and had just returned from tendonitis in his right foot. He battled back on Thursday night with 29 points on 10-of-19 shooting in a 126-124 victory over Phoenix. He left Saturday’s game with just five points on 1-of-5 shooting.
“No update right now,” Green said. “It’s extremely tough to see B.I. go down — adversity, once again. He had a really good game coming back and had a few really good practices. To see a tough play like that was a really tough break for us.”
