Three key starters for the New Orleans Pelicans are facing uncertainty for their upcoming game against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. Brandon Ingram, who suffered a right ankle sprain during Tuesday's victory over New York, is added to the injury list alongside CJ McCollum with a left ankle sprain and Zion Williamson with a left foot contusion. The trio is questionable to play, with Zion Williamson having played in six consecutive games after his last absence on February 10.

Among the four Pelicans already ruled out for the game are Jose Alvarado due to a league suspension, Dyson Daniels recovering from a left knee meniscectomy, E.J. Liddell in the G League on assignment, and Malcolm Hill with a two-way contract in the G League.

For the Indiana Pacers, Aaron Nesmith is listed as questionable with a right ankle sprain, while Doug McDermott will be out with a right calf strain. Additionally, forward Trey Murphy III has been newly added to the injury report as questionable with a left calf contusion.

The Pelicans will have to navigate through these injuries as they face the Pacers, who themselves are dealing with their share of health challenges, in their upcoming game.
