Pelicans Announce Trey Murphy Out at Least Two Weeks, Dejounte Murray Out Indefinitely

The New Orleans Pelicans have announced that Trey Murphy III will be out for at least two weeks with a right ankle sprain, while Dejounte Murray will be out indefinitely with a left hamstring injury.

Murphy suffered his injury in the Pelicans' 128-125 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night. He left the game in the third quarter and did not return.

Murphy's Injury Timeline

• Murphy is expected to miss at least two weeks with a right ankle sprain.
• He will be re-evaluated in two weeks to determine the next steps in his recovery.

Murray's Injury Timeline

• Murray's timetable for return is less clear, sources tell ESPN.
• The team has not announced a specific timeline for his return.
• An MRI confirmed Murray's left hamstring injury, and further testing will take place to determine the severity of the injury.
• Murray will be re-evaluated in the coming days to determine the next steps in his recovery.

The injuries to Murphy and Murray are a significant blow to the Pelicans, who are already without Zion Williamson (right foot surgery) and Brandon Ingram (left great toe contusion).

with Ingram still listed as day-to-day, the Pelicans are now without four of their top six scorers from last season.

The Pelicans are currently 2-5 on the season and will face the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday night.
