Trey Murphy III - Absent from injury reportMurphy (hamstring) isn't listed on the injury report for Friday's game against the Warriors.

ImpactMurphy will be ready to suit up for Friday's matchup after being held out of the second half of a back-to-back Wednesday against the Cavs. He's appeared in four matchups so far this season, averaging 15.5 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 27.8 minutes.

Herbert Jones - Remains outJones (shoulder) won't play Friday against the Warriors.

ImpactJones has not yet been cleared for contact work, so it's no surprise to see that he's been ruled out for Friday's matchup. His next opportunity to return will arrive Monday against the Pacers.

CJ McCollum - Unlikely to play FridayMcCollum (adductor) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Warriors.

ImpactMcCollum has been sidelined since Oct. 29 due to a right adductor strain, though he has been cleared for practice and five-on-five action. The 12-year veteran's tag being upgraded to doubtful suggests a return in the near future. However, if he's unable to play in Friday's NBA Cup matchup, Brandon Boston and Elfrid Payton will likely continue to see an uptick in playing time with Brandon Ingram (ankle) and Jordan Hawkins (back) both questionable.

Yves Missi - Questionable for FridayMissi (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Warriors.

ImpactMissi was cleared to play in Wednesday's loss to the Cavaliers, though he is still dealing with lingering left shoulder soreness that could hold him out of Friday's NBA Cup matchup. If the rookie big man is unable to suit up, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl and Trey Jemison are candidates for an increased role.

Brandon Ingram - Iffy for Friday vs. GSIngram is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Warriors due to bilateral ankle sprains.

ImpactIngram missed Wednesday's loss to Cleveland due to the sprained ankles, though he could return as the Pelicans play Golden State in an NBA Cup game Friday. If the 27-year-old is unable to return to game action Friday, Brandon Boston and Elfrid Payton will likely continue to see an uptick in playing time, especially if Jordan Hawkins (back) and CJ McCollum (adductor) are ruled out.

Jordan Hawkins - Deemed questionable for FridayHawkins (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Warriors.

ImpactHawkins has missed the Pelicans' last seven outings due to a low back strain, though he appears to be nearing a return to game action. The second-year guard has returned to practice in a limited fashion, and the club could opt to work him back to playing form slowly. If Hawkins is ruled out, Brandon Boston and Elfrid Payton will likely continue to see an uptick in playing time.
