The injury bug has become an injury parasite for the New Orleans Pelicans. It won’t go away.
Friday, the team announced that forward Herb Jones would miss time with a torn labrum in his right shoulder. An MRI confirmed the injury.
Jones missed all of November dealing with an injury to the same shoulder. He returned December 5 and played five weeks. He will now be out indefinitely.
Jones was an NBA All-Defensive first teamer last season. He joins star Brandon Ingram among the injured Pelicans.
New Orleans is currently 7-31 and in last place in the Western Conference.
