Looked like Brandon Ingram might’ve gotten poked in the eye there or taken a shot to the nose when he and Naji went up for that steal.
Pelicans call a timeout to let BI get checked out by trainers. – 7:31 PM

Naji Marshall and Brandon Ingram collided while coming up with a steal on a long up-the-court pass. Looks like some of Naji’s fingers caught BI in the face. Pelicans had to call a timeout. – 7:31 PM
