Trey Murphy showed marked improvement in Friday’s loss to the Clippers, scoring 17 points with efficient shooting, alongside five rebounds, six assists, and two steals. After a slump in his recent performances, Murphy’s 50% shooting from beyond the arc signals a return to form, aligning closely with his career average. The Pelicans will look to capitalize on his resurgence as they face Oklahoma City on Sunday to close out Week 2.
