Trey Murphy
Injury
Trey Murphy will be sidelined for a third consecutive game due to an ankle injury, ruling him out for the Pelicans’ matchup against the Rockets on Sunday. Coach Willie Green may continue to rely on Yves Missi, who contributed seven points over 19 minutes in Murphy’s absence during Friday’s defeat to the Raptors. The Pelicans will look to adjust their lineup to compensate for Murphy’s offensive impact.
