Nance (knee) totaled nine points (3-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one block over 18 minutes during Thursday's 126-109 victory over the Bulls.

EDGE Analysis

Playing his first game for the Pelicans and seeing his first action since Jan. 5, Nance was understandably given a fairly light workload in his return from knee surgery. The veteran big will likely see a similar role for the remainder of the season, but he could put some pressure on Jaxson Hayes for minutes at power forward if Nance rounds into form quickly.
