CJ McCollum - On track for return Coach Willie Green said Friday that McCollum (adductor) has started to participate in some three-on-three and five-on-five action, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site re... Impact McCollum hasn't played since Oct. 29 due to a right adductor strain, though Green said he is nearing a return to game action while ramping up in on-court activities, according to Eichenhofer. The star guard's presence has been missed in a depleted backcourt without Jordan Hawkins (back), Dejounte Murray (hand), Herbert Jones (shoulder) and Jose Alverado (hamstring). McCollum's next chance to play will come Saturday against the Lakers, and it is unclear whether he will operate under a minutes restriction with the lengthy list of injuries to the Pelicans.
