(SportsNetwork.com) - The New Orleans Pelicans hope to have young star Anthony Davis back in the lineup Tuesday versus the Utah Jazz. Davis suffered a bruised chest in the first quarter of Fridays win over Cleveland and did not return. He then missed Sundays 128-122 overtime loss to the streaking Golden State Warriors and is questionable tonight. The talented big man is averaging 24.3 points, 10.2 rebounds and 2.7 blocks. New Orleans had the Warriors, the NBAs best team, on the ropes and was outscored by a 17-11 difference in OT. Warriors guard Stephen Curry poured in 34 points and Klay Thompson added 29. Tyreke Evans and Jrue Holiday scored 34 and 30 points, respectively, in defeat and Ryan Anderson netted 15 for the Pelicans, who shot 46.5 percent and had won three of their previous four games. New Orleans shot better than 50 percent over the first three quarters, but was a combined 11-of-30 in the fourth quarter and overtime. Our guys fought their tails off tonight, we just came up short, Pelicans coach Monty Williams said. Evans is averaging 16.9 ppg and has scored 30 or more points in back-to-back games for the first time in his career. Evans tallied 31 points in the win over the Cavaliers. The Pelicans are 7-3 at home and will visit Houston next on Thursday. Utah has lost five in a row on the road and opened a nine-day, six-game trek with Sundays 93-84 setback to the Washington Wizards. Alec Burks scored 19 points, Gordon Hayward added 16 and Trey Burke finished with 15 points for the Jazz, who made only 38.5 percent and lost for the 11th time in the past 12 games. The Jazz are 2-9 on the road and their 17 turnovers led to 25 Washington points. They took better care of the ball and executed better, Jazz first-year head coach Quin Snyder said. We shot ourselves in the foot. The Jazz will also visit Miami, Orlando, Charlotte and Memphis on the jaunt. Utah forward Derrick Favors missed the game with an ankle injury suffered Friday against the Heat. Favors played about 10 minutes and is averaging 15.2 points and 8.2 rebounds. He is questionable against the Pelicans. The Jazz and Pelicans will play the second of three meetings this season, and New Orleans tallied a 106-94 triumph in Salt Lake City on Nov. 22 thanks to Davis career-best 43 points on 16-of-23 shooting and 14 rebounds. Hayward countered Davis with 31 points in that one for Utah. Utah and New Orleans split the 2013-14 regular season series 2-2. Gordie Howe Jersey . He insists hes not counting.

The team will interview former Maccabi Tel Aviv coach David Blatt, a person familiar with the teams plans told The Associated Press on Thursday. Earlier in the day, Blatt announced in Israel that hes leaving the European champion to pursue an unspecified job in the NBA. Hell meet with the Cavs next week, said the person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the team is not discussing any aspect of its search -- now a month old. The 55-year-old Blatt has known Cavs general manager David Griffin for years. At his news conference, Blatt, who led Maccabi to its first European title this year, said hes weighing offers from unnamed teams and has "a few good options." Hes expected to make a decision soon. "I am leaving here not because I was asked to. The opposite is true, I was asked to stay, and offered the best possible conditions for such an event," Blatt said. "But I just felt it is a move I wanted to make. It has been a dream of mine for almost forever to go and join a team in the NBA in some capacity. "I wish I could have done it as a player. I wasnt good enough. But now perhaps Ill have that opportunity as a coach." Blatt has ddrawn interest to be an assistant with New York, Golden State and Minnesota.dddddddddddd The Cavs, though, are interested in talking to him about being their head coach. They reached out to him last week, but had not set up a face-to-face meeting. The Cleveland Plain Dealer was first to report Blatts interview. Blatt is just the latest candidate to interview with the Cavs, who will have a second meeting with Clippers assistant coach Alvin Gentry on Friday. The person familiar with the teams plans also said the Cavs will meet for the second time with another Clippers assistant, former NBA guard Tyronn Lue. Gentry and Lue are expected to speak with Cavs owner Dan Gilbert, who did not participate in the teams first round of interviews. The team has contacted as many as 12 candidates to fill the vacancy created when owner Dan Gilbert fired Mike Brown -- for the second time -- on May 12. The Cavs would like to have a coach in place by the NBA draft on June 26, but obviously, the team isnt rushing into any decisions. Earlier this week, the Cavs interviewed former Cleveland All-Star guard Mark Price, now an assistant with Charlotte. Price has limited head coaching experience, but Griffin has said the team will not be restricted in its search. ' ' '
