The New Orleans Pelicans’s season is going from bad to worse. The Western Conference team, who are battling injuries, have been hit with another injury blow as guard Jose Alvarado is expected to miss six weeks<\/a> due to a hamstring injury. <\/p>

Alvarado joins a growing list of injured players that includes Zion Williamson, Herb Jones, Dejounte Murray, CJ McCollum, and Jordan Hawkins. <\/p>

Alvarado has had standout performances recently, posting 20-plus points and five assists in back-to-back games last week. This season, Alvarado has been averaging 10.7 points, 4.5 assists, and 1.5 steals per game, while shooting a career-high 40% from beyond the arc. <\/p>

Alvarado is expected to return around Christmas. <\/p>

Jose Alvarado’s injury adds to Pelicans’ defensive woes<\/h2>

Jose Alvarado’s injury is a big blow for the Pelicans who have made a poor start to their season. The Pelicans are currently holding a 3-8 record, losing five straight games after a promising 3-3 start. The team has been plagued by injuries, and their defensive woes have been evident, allowing 124.8 points per 100 possessions, the highest in the league during their recent stretch.<\/p>

Despite the challenges, rookie Yves Missi has been a silver lining for the Pelicans, recently posting a double-double with 17 points and 11 rebounds in a loss to the Brooklyn Nets. The team will be hoping for a turnaround once their key players return to the lineup.<\/p>
