Perkins will not return to Saturday's game against the Warriors after suffering a right pectoral strain in the first quarter, John Reid of the Times-Picayune reports.
The Pelicans have dealt with numerous injuries to their frontcourt already this season and Saturday's injury to Perkins complicates that trend with the severity still unknown. Although, Omer Asik (calf) made his season debut Saturday and is the likely candidate to jump into the starting lineup at center if Perkins is forced to miss time off the court.
