Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Out Thursday
Murphy (ankle) is out for Thursday's game against the Pistons.
Murphy will miss his first action since Feb. 28 after picking up a right ankle injury. In the past, the Pelicans have elected to start both Herbert Jones and Yves Missi when without Murphy, though Jeremiah Fears could also be more heavily involved in the rotation with Murphy sidelined Thursday.

Pelicans' Dejounte Murray: Available to play
Murray (rest) is available for Thursday's game against Detroit.
Murray will shed his questionable tag for the front end of this back-to-back set. Presumably, he'll be rested Friday against the Raptors. Since making his season debut Feb. 24, Murray has appeared in 11 of 15 games, averaging 17.6 points, 6.7 assists, 5.1 rebounds and 1.5 steals in 27.7 minutes per game.

Pelicans' Bryce McGowens: Still sidelined
McGowens is out for Thursday's game against the Pistons due to a right toe fracture.
McGowens last appeared during the March 8 win over the Wizards and holds no timetable for a return to action. His absence opens up a few extra minutes for Jeremiah Fears in the backcourt.

Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Questionable for Thursday
Murphy is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pistons with right ankle soreness.
Thursday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, and with the Pelicans no longer in the mix for a playoff spot, a maintenance day is surely on the table. If he's held out Thursday, Jeremiah Fears and Jordan Poole could take on larger roles.

Pelicans' Dejounte Murray: Iffy for Thursday
Murray (rest) is questionable for Thursday's game against Detroit.
With the Pelicans no longer in the mix for a postseason spot, the team may be very cautious with Murray going forward. With Thursday's game being the front end of a back-to-back set, Murray is almost certainly going to rest in one of these games.

Pelicans' Dejounte Murray: Hands out season-high 12 dimes
Murray ended with seven points (2-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, 12 assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Tuesday's 121-116 loss to New York.
The 12 dimes were a season best for the star guard, who did struggle mightily to score Tuesday. Overall, Murray is still putting together a convincing comeback from last year's Achilles rupture, averaging 18.9 points, 7.0 assists, 5.4 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 29.1 minutes per tilt in his last seven games.

Pelicans' Karlo Matkovic: Plays well off bench
Matkovic ended with 12 points (5-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 23 minutes during Tuesday's 121-116 loss to the Knicks.
This was a solid showing for Matkovic, but with the Pelicans no longer in the mix for a playoff spot, it will be interesting to see if the team looks to get Derik Queen more involved at the expense of Matkovic. The veteran holds averages of 5.7 points and 3.7 rebounds in 14.6 minutes per contest this season.

Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Scores 16 points in loss
Murphy ended Tuesday's 121-116 loss to the Knicks with 16 points (6-15 FG, 4-12 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and one steal in 36 minutes.
With the Pelicans eliminated from the playoffs with this loss, it will be interesting to see how the team handles Murphy's minutes and usage the rest of the way. Through 64 appearances this season, Murphy holds averages of 21.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 3.3 three-pointers.

Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Plays well in loss
Bey finished with 18 points (6-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes during Tuesday's 121-116 loss to the Knicks.
With this loss, the Pelicans no longer have a chance to make the postseason. With that in mind, it remains to be seen if that will affect Bey's usage and minutes for the final few weeks, though he's likely to remain heavily involved in the short term.

Pelicans' Zion Williamson: Team-high 22 points in loss
Williamson closed Tuesday's 121-116 loss to the Knicks with 22 points (8-10 FG, 6-8 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes.
Williamson needed just 10 field-goal attempts to surpass the 20-point threshold during Tuesday's loss. The 2019 first-overall pick continues to enjoy a productive season, and more importantly, he has been healthy after playing just 30 games during the 2024-25 regular season. Since the All-Star break, Williamson has averaged 20.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.1 steals over 30.1 minutes per game.

Pelicans' Jeremiah Fears: Sparks bench in Tuesday's loss
Fears had 21 points (9-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt), one rebound, three assists and two steals across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 121-116 loss to the Knicks.
Fears was held scoreless in both the first and third quarters but posted double-digit points in each of the second and fourth frames to finish as the Pelicans' second-leading scorer behind Zion Williamson (22 points). It was Fears' 12th 20-plus-point game of the season and first since March 1 against the Clippers. The rookie first-rounder has averaged 12.5 points, 3.7 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.5 threes over 22.2 minutes per game since the All-Star break.

Pelicans' Bryce McGowens: Sitting vs. Knicks

McGowens hasn't been able to suit up since March 8 due to a fractured toe. His next chance to suit up will arrive Thursday in Detroit.

Pelicans' Yves Missi: Comes down with team-high 10 boards
Missi finished with six points (3-7 FG), 10 rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal in 24 minutes during Saturday's 111-106 loss to the Cavaliers.
Despite coming off the bench, Missi paced the Pelicans in boards Saturday. The second-year center has hauled in double-digit rebounds in four of his last six games, during which Missi has averaged 6.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.5 blocks in 23.8 minutes per tilt while shooting 53.6 percent from the floor.

Pelicans' Zion Williamson: Puts up team-high 25 points
Williamson provided 25 points (10-14 FG, 5-9 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Saturday's 111-106 loss to Cleveland.
The star forward led the Pelicans in scoring Saturday, reaching the 25-point mark for the 19th time this season. Williamson is showing no signs of slowing down as New Orleans plays out the final weeks of its losing season. Over his last 10 contests, Williamson has averaged 20.7 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 30.7 minutes per tilt while shooting 66.7 percent from the floor.

Pelicans' Dejounte Murray: Flirts with double-double in return
Murray (Achilles) amassed 12 points (4-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Saturday's 111-106 loss to Cleveland.
After sitting out Thursday's win over the Clippers, Murray led the Pelicans in dimes in his return to the court Saturday. The star guard is enjoying a successful comeback from last year's Achilles rupture, providing excellent fantasy value in all formats. Through 10 contests, Murray has averaged 18.7 points, 6.3 assists, 5.1 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 27.6 minutes per game.
