New Orleans Pelicans guards Tyreke Evans and Jrue Holiday are both questionable for tonight's western conference playoff battle against the Golden State Warriors, the team announced today.

Coach Monty Williams stated at shootaround that both players will be game-time decisions.

Evans suffered a left knee contusion in game 1 after bumping knees with Warriors forward Andre Igoudala.

Holiday missed 41 games with a stress reaction in his right leg, returning to action only 10 days ago. He has played in 4 games since his return, with a minute restriction.

"Jrue’s just sore. He went through his typical day (yesterday)," explained Williams. "He’s not close to 100 percent. He’s giving us everything he has right now. He’s been really effective for us. He’s just got soreness, but at the same time, he’s been able to be effective for us.”

Holiday initially had a 15 minute restriction upon his return, before seeing it increase to 25 in the final game of the regular season last Wednesday.

Tip-off tonight from Oracle Arena is set for 9:30. Golden State currently holds a 1-0 advantage in the best-of-seven series, taking game 1 on Saturday by the score of 106-99.
