Injury Report: Trey Murphy III upgraded to questionable, Jose Alvarado questionable following injury against 76ers Pelicans forward Trey Murphy III (left knee partial meniscectomy) was upgraded to questionable ahead of Friday’s 7 p.m. home game vs. the Sa...
Questionable for Friday Murphy (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Spurs, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.
Impact There's optimism that Murphy could make his season debut Friday against San Antonio, and he went through Thursday's practice session. The Pelicans will likely see how Murphy fares in the hours leading up to Friday's tipoff, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him suit up against San Antonio. However, if he's given the green light, it's certainly possible he faces a minutes restriction.

Could return Friday Murphy (knee) could make his season debut as early as Friday against the Spurs, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Impact Murphy has spent the first several weeks of the regular season continuing his recovery process from offseason knee surgery, but he was listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against Philadelphia rather than being immediately ruled out. Friday's matchup is the first leg of a back-to-back set, so the Pelicans may manage his workload in some way if he's cleared to suit up against San Antonio. However, Murphy appears to be closing in on his return following a lengthy absence to begin the year.

Remains sidelined Murphy (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.
Impact Murphy's absence shouldn't come as a surprise considering his doubtful tag. However, Wednesday's tilt marked the first time Murphy had been listed as anything other than out this season. He'll have another chance to make his return from an offseason surgery Friday against San Antonio, but the matchup is the first leg of a back-to-back.

Upgraded to doubtful Murphy (knee) has been upgraded to doubtful for Wednesday's game against Philadelphia.
Impact Murphy is trending in the right direction to return to action in the near future. The 23-year-old underwent a partial meniscectomy and received a biologic injection in his left knee in early September, with a recovery timeline of 10-12 weeks. Thursday represents the 12-week mark, and while Murphy is unlikely to return before, there is potential for him to suit up Wednesday against the 76ers or Friday against the Spurs.

Not yet ready to make debut Murphy (knee) will not play Monday at Utah, Christian Clark of NOLA.com reports.
Impact The Pelicans have not provided much information on Murphy, who's yet to play this season after undergoing surgery on his left knee back in early September. Earlier this month, Murphy was spotted shooting around at practice without noticeable limitations, but it looks as though the team is taking caution with his return-to-play plan. Murphy was initially given a 10-to-12-week timetable, which would imply that he could be ready to return at some point in the next week or two. His next chance to debut will arrive Wednesday against the 76ers.

Gets shots up at practice Murphy (knee) remains without a firm timetable to return to game action, but he was participating in shooting drills at practice Monday, Pro Pels Talk reports.
Impact The Pelicans ruled Murphy out for Tuesday's matchup against the Mavericks, and it remains unclear when he'll make his debut, but the Virginia product appears to be moving in the right direction as he works back from a procedure on his left knee. Murphy was initially given a 10-to-12-week timetable after undergoing surgery on Sept. 7, so if that estimation holds up he could be back on the floor sometime before the end of the month.

Team option exercised The Pelicans exercised Murphy's (knee) fourth-year team option for 2024-25 on Thursday, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Murphy is set to stay in New Orleans through 2024-25. The 23-year-old forward is expected to miss the first few weeks of the regular season while recovering from left knee surgery but is progressing well during rehab, per Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site. When healthy, Murphy should be a significant part of the Pelicans' rotation when available.

Impact Murphy suffered his meniscus injury during a workout Tuesday and spent the last few days with the team's medical staff evaluating whether he'd need surgery. The team determined the need for a procedure Wednesday, and he'll shift his focus toward his recovery process following Thursday's surgery. The 23-year-old will be unavailable for the start of the regular season while recovering, but it's possible he's in the mix to return around mid-November. Dyson Daniels, Jordan Hawkins and Naji Marshall are candidates to see an uptick in minutes once the 2023-24 campaign gets underway.

Evaluating surgical options Murphy (knee) is dealing with at least a slight meniscus tear and is evaluating surgical options, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact Murphy sustained a meniscus injury in his left knee Tuesday and was evaluating whether he'll require surgery, but it appears likely that he'll need some sort of procedure following his diagnosis. The team reportedly has "significant concern" regarding his injury, and his return timetable will depend on what type of surgery he ultimately requires. Depending on the procedure, he could return around the start of the regular season, but the team will continue to evaluate options this week.

Impact After a modest rookie season, Murphy excelled in Year 2. He was essentially a full-time starter and averaged 14.5 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.1 steals in 31.0 minutes per game. Murphy's 3-and-D prowess was on full display, as he shot 40.6 percent on 6.3 three-point attempts per game. The potential return of Zion Williamson (hamstring) cast a shadow over Murphy's fantasy value in 2023-24, and this injury certainly doesn't help things either. With just over one month until the preseason kicks off, Murphy could be sidelined to start the regular season, but it doesn't appear like he's in danger of missing the entire campaign yet.
