New Orleans Pelicans forward Herb Jones is sidelined indefinitely due to a posterior labrum tear in his right shoulder, impacting the team's defensive strength during a critical road trip.
Jones underwent an MRI after leaving a game against Portland, where he previously missed 18 games this season due to the same shoulder injury before returning in December.
A second-round draft pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, Jones has played in 20 of the Pelicans' 38 games this season, demonstrating significant defensive skills and average stats.
Last season, Jones was recognized as an NBA All-Defensive First Team member, underlining his importance to the Pelicans' defense and overall team performance.
