Trey Murphy III News, Rumors, Updates - New Orleans Pelicans

Won't play against Orlando Murphy (hamstring) has been downgraded to out for Friday's game versus the Magic, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.

Impact Murphy has been downgraded from doubtful to out Friday due a strained right hamstring that has kept him sidelined for the beginning of the 2024-25 campaign. Murphy's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Brooklyn.

Unlikely to play Friday Murphy (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game versus the Magic.

Impact Murphy has yet to play this season while recovering from a strained right hamstring. Although Murphy is unlikely to suit up Friday, his status being listed as doubtful instead of out is a good sign that he is nearing a return to action.

Impact Murphy continues to deal with a right hamstring strain and will miss at least the first two weeks of the regular season. Until Murphy is officially cleared to return Jordan Hawkins and Javonte Green should continue to receive increased playing time.

Still not cleared for contact Murphy (hamstring) said Tuesday he's making steady progress with his rehab but hasn't been cleared for sprinting or physical contact, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

Impact Murphy suffered a right hamstring strain at the beginning of October and was given a three-week return timetable, giving him a slight chance to be ready for the regular-season opener. However, it appears he's still at least a week away from being cleared for game action and will likely miss multiple games. In Murphy's absence, Jordan Hawkins should see more minutes off the bench to begin the campaign.

Agrees to four-year extension Murphy (hamstring) and the Pelicans agreed to a four-year, $112 million extension Monday, NBA writer Marc Stein reports.

Impact Murphy is currently recovering from a hamstring strain and is questionable for Opening Night on Wednesday against the Bulls. Locking him up to a new contract was seemingly a no-brainer for the franchise, as Murphy's floor spacing will be crucial to their success. During the 2023-24 regular season, Murphy made 57 appearances with averages of 14.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 3.0 three-pointers.

Impact Murphy extended his streak of games scoring in double figures to 14 appearances (12 starts), and he ended up as New Orleans' leading scorer in this Game 1 loss while carrying the team at times in the second and third quarters. Murphy can get hot in any moment of a game, but even if that doesn't happen, he sees enough touches to make a consistent impact on offense. Expect Murphy to remain in the first unit -- while experiencing a slight uptick in his usage rate -- as long as Zion Williamson (hamstring) remains out.

Impact The Virginia product will join the starting lineup due to the absence of Zion Williamson (hamstring). Murphy is averaging 22.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.2 steals in his last five starts and figures to have plenty of chances to make an impact with Williamson sidelined.
