Pelicans' Dejounte Murray: Tears Achilles, out for season
Murray was diagnosed with a torn right Achilles tendon after exiting in the first quarter of Friday's 118-116 loss to the Celitcs and will miss the rest of the season, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Murray went down with a non-contact injury with just under four minutes remaining in the first quarter and needed to be carried to the locker room. Early tests have confirmed the Pelicans' worst fears, and the 28-year-old point guard's first season in New Orleans will come to an end with him having appeared in 31 of the team's first 49 games while averaging 17.5 points (on a career-worst 39.3 percent shooting from the field), 7.4 assists, 6.5 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 1.7 three-pointers in 32.6 minutes per contest. Murray will likely undergo surgery in the near future, but given the nature of his injury, he could still face an uphill battle to gain clearance for the start of training camp in the fall. Jose Alvarado started the second half of Friday's game in Murray's stead and should be in store for a big boost in playing time over the rest of the season.

Pelicans' Dejounte Murray: Won't return Friday
The Pelicans announced that Murray suffered a lower right leg injury in the first quarter of Friday's game against the Celtics and won't return.
Murray posted four points (2-6 FG), five rebounds and three turnovers in eight minutes before leaving the game with 3:51 remaining in the first quarter after going down with a non-contact injury. Jose Alvarado started the second half in place of Murray, who appears to be at risk of missing additional time due to the injury. The Pelicans will presumably put Murray through further tests before a timeline for his return is established.

Pelicans' Dejounte Murray: Ruled out Saturday
Murray (finger/elbow) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Hornets, Andrew Lopez of Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network reports.
Murray is listed on the injury report with right elbow bursitis and a right index finger sprain, but the latter issue appears to be the greater concern, given that Pelicans head coach Willie Green said Saturday that the point guard will get an X-ray on his hand. With Murray sidelined for at least one contest, CJ McCollum will likely see more time on the ball, while Jordan Hawkins and Jose Alvarado could be in store for elevated minutes out of the backcourt.
