Pelicans' Dejounte Murray: Not playing vs. Minnesota

Murray (hand) is out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.

Analysis:

Murray will end up missing the Pelicans' final five games of the season due to a bruised left hand, but overall, this was a lost year for the veteran floor general. He missed the first half of the season while rehabbing from a torn Achilles and was limited to just 14 regular-season appearances (all starts) in 2025-26. He will end the season with averages of 16.7 points, 5.4 rebounds and 6.4 assists per contest.
