Jose Alvarado (New Orleans Pelicans)
September 2025
Jose Alvarado was stretchered off after a hard foul in Puerto Rico’s AmeriCup loss to Argentina. He scored 25 points before the injury, raising concerns for New Orleans, who already battled multiple injuries during their 49-33 campaign in 2024-25.
Alvarado landed hard while contesting a rebound, sparking fears of a serious setback. He later reassured fans he was “good” on Instagram, though no official timeline is set. With teammates Dejounte Murray, Herbert Jones and Trey Murphy also recovering, Pelicans face another uncertain injury-plagued start.
