New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram wasn't listed on Sunday's injury report and is cleared to play on Monday against the Brooklyn Nets.
The Duke product didn't suffer a concussion during Saturday's loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder and didn't enter the protocol, a source told ESPN's Andrew Lopez.
Ingram departed Saturday's game after suffering a head injury in the second quarter. The Pelicans listed him as doubtful to return but never ruled him out.
The fourth-year forward has emerged as New Orleans' top scorer during his first season with the team, averaging 23.5 points and 7.5 rebounds on 50% 3-point shooting.
