Friday night to match the best 10-game start in team history.

NEW ORLEANS -- Jrue Holiday, who missed the New Orleans Pelicans first 12 games of the season to tend to his ailing wife -- former USWNT soccer player Lauren Holiday -- will sit out his first game Monday since returning in mid-November because of turf toe.Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry said Holidays injury likely was suffered in the first half of Sundays 101-92 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, but he described it as one of those nagging things that is nothing serious.Anthony Davis, meanwhile, is expected to play after suffering a right foot sprain Sunday that required an X-ray.However, the 23-year-old scoring leader may be one of the few recognizable faces on the court at the Smoothie King Center when the Pelicans face off against the Memphis Grizzlies.ETwaun Moore also was a late scratch with a contusion to his right big toe that has lingered since the preseason and forced him out of a loss to the Boston Celtics on Nov. 14, bringing the grand total of players officially out for Mondays matchup between the Pelicans and Grizzlies to 12.Gentry said he doesnt know if the injuries to Holiday and Moore will linger but that he doesnt expect them to.Tyreke Evans (right knee/left calf stain) and Quincy Pondexter (left knee) have missed every game this season for the Pelicans, and Dante Cunningham has missed the past five games with a broken left fibula.Vince Carter (right hip), Mike Conley (lower back), James Ennis (right calf), Chandler Parsons (left knee), Zach Randolph (personal) and Brandan Wright (left ankle) are out for the Grizzlies.Pelicans second-round draft pick Cheick Diallo is on assignment with the D-Leagues Austin Spurs and is not with the team.New Orleans lost 351 games to injury and illness last season, the second most in the past decade. Memphis, also ravaged by injuries last season, set a record for most players to suit up in a single season with 28.I really dont have a reaction. I really dont, Gentry said with a laugh. Over the last year and a half, this is the way its kind of been. You cant do anything except plug in whos there and tell them they have to step their game up and play a little bit better, and then you move on.Said Grizzlies coach David Fizdale: I dont know what it is. [Injuries] hit teams at different times. For some reason right now, early on, its hitting a lot of guys. Honus Wagner Jersey .
