Evans averaged 16.6 points, 6.6 assists and 5.3 rebounds in the regular season. As the secondary scorer after Anthony Davis, Evans' injury and potential absence would be a huge blow for the Pelicans who are trying to keep the series competitive. Without Evans, New Orleans must look to Norris Cole and Jrue Holiday as their primary ball-handlers.
