Top Trey Murphy III News

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Goes for 21 points in Game 1 loss

    Murphy notched 21 points (8-18 FG, 5-12 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, three blocks and one steal across 44 minutes during Sunday's 94-92 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 1 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

    Murphy extended his streak of games scoring in double figures to 14 appearances (12 starts), and he ended up as New Orleans' leading scorer in this Game 1 loss while carrying the team at times in the second and third quarters. Murphy can get hot in any moment of a game, but even if that doesn't happen, he sees enough touches to make a consistent impact on offense. Expect Murphy to remain in the first unit -- while experiencing a slight uptick in his usage rate -- as long as Zion Williamson (hamstring) remains out.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Running with first unit

    Murphy is starting Friday's Play-In Game against the Kings.

    The Virginia product will join the starting lineup due to the absence of Zion Williamson (hamstring). Murphy is averaging 22.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.2 steals in his last five starts and figures to have plenty of chances to make an impact with Williamson sidelined.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Back to bench

    Murphy will come off the bench in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Lakers, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.

    With Brandon Ingram (knee) returning from a lengthy absence, Murphy will shift back to a reserve role. He has averaged 13.8 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.9 assists across 26.5 minutes in 33 games off the bench this season.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Excels with 27 points

    Murphy provided 27 points (7-14 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds and four assists in 45 minutes during Thursday's 135-123 victory over the Kings.

    Murphy followed up Tuesday's explosive 31 points against Portland with another superb total on the road. Murphy has scored in double digits in nine straight games, but the imminent return of Brandon Ingram (knee) will send Murphy's numbers back to normal levels. Although Murphy missed a lot of action this season, he has a shot at being the presumptive starter ahead of Herbert Jones in the playoffs once Ingram returns.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Busts out for game-high 31

    Murphy had 31 points (9-17 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 8-8 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and two steals over 38 minutes during Tuesday's 110-100 victory over Portland.

    Murphy was making his ninth straight start, but he'd scored more than 16 points only once in the prior eight, a 21-point effort against the Suns on April 1. The third-year forward has averaged 15.9 points, 7.5 boards, 2.9 assists, 2.8 threes and 1.3 steals during his stint in the starting five, but even if Brandon Ingram (knee) returns to the lineup Thursday in Sacramento, Murphy should still hang onto a significant workload in the Pelicans' frontcourt.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Struggles from field Sunday

    Murphy accumulated 13 points (4-13 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 39 minutes during Sunday's 113-105 win over the Suns.

    Murphy struggled badly from the field and needed 13 shots to score 13 points, and overall, this performance was below the numbers he's been delivering in recent weeks. However, Murphy should remain a prominent part of the rotation until Brandon Ingram (knee) can return.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Scores 14 points, ejected late

    Murphy recorded 14 points (3-7 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-7 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one steal in 37 minutes before getting ejected from Wednesday's 117-108 loss to the Magic.

    Murphy, Herbert Jones and Dyson Daniels were all ejected with seven seconds left in the loss after having words with an official. It's highly unlikely any will face suspension, but fines could be on the way. Murphy has cooled down from his scoring outbursts earlier in the month, averaging 14.1 points on 36.4 percent from the field and 34.5 percent from deep across his past seven games.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Solid scoring Monday

    Murphy racked up 21 points (7-14 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals over 32 minutes during Monday's 124-111 loss to the Suns.

    Murphy and Zion Williamson (30 points) were the only Pelicans to exceed 15 points Monday, while Murphy accounted for four of New Orleans' 11 made threes as a team. The Pelicans managed to shoot 40.7 percent from beyond the arc, but the low volume could be an issue for the team's offensive upside. Murphy can be a catalyst, however, and he has now knocked down at least three triples in five of his last seven games.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Sets season high in victory

    Murphy recorded 15 points (4-13 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists and two steals over 39 minutes in Thursday's 107-100 win over Milwaukee.

    Murphy hauled in a team-high and season-high rebound total to go along with a handful of assists and a pair of steals while posting one of two double-doubles for the Pelicans in a winning effort. Murphy has hauled in 10 or more boards in two games this season, with the other such performance occurring Feb. 25 when he hauled in a previous season high of 10 rebounds. Murphy posted his first double-double of the campaign in the victory.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Held in check

    Murphy totaled eight points (1-12 FG, 0-9 3Pt, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, four blocks and one steal across 32 minutes during Sunday's 114-101 victory over the Pistons.

    This was a quiet offensive showing for Murphy, as he took a backseat while Zion Williamson erupted for 36 points. But with Brandon Ingram (knee) expected to miss a couple of weeks, better days are likely ahead for Murphy.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Modest performance in start

    Murphy ended with 14 points (4-11 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and three assists across 30 minutes during Friday's 111-88 victory over Miami.

    Murphy shifted into the starting lineup, replacing Brandon Ingram, who will miss at least two weeks due to a knee injury. This alone makes Murphy a must-roster player despite the fact he was not at his best Friday. With that said, he still managed four triples. The Pelicans suit up again Sunday, when they will face the Pistons in what should be a favorable matchup.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Enters starting lineup

    Murphy is starting Friday's game against the Heat.

    Murphy will enter the starting five in Brandon Ingram's (knee) place, and he could remain with the first unit until Ingram is cleared for play. The Virginia product is coming off an impressive 21-point performance Thursday night in Orlando and has shown plenty of scoring ability this season.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Leads team in scoring Thursday

    Murphy ended Thursday's 121-106 loss to Orlando with 21 points (6-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three rebounds and one steal in 29 minutes.

    Murphy has stepped into a larger role on offense since mid-February and has played 28-plus minutes in each of his last 15 games. He's taken advantage of the increased opportunity, and since Feb. 14, Murphy has averaged 16.9 points on 45.6 percent shooting, including 39.7 percent from three on 9.1 attempts per game, 5.5 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.1 steals over 31.3 minutes per game.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Moves to bench

    Murphy will come off the bench for Tuesday's game versus at the Nets.

    Herbert Jones (hip/back) is returning from a one-game absence, so this is an expected move. Murphy fared well in his spot start Saturday against the Trail Blazers, finishing with 20 points (7-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and five assists in 35 minutes.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Drops 20 points in spot start

    Murphy racked up 20 points (7-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and five assists in 35 minutes during Saturday's 126-107 victory over the Trail Blazers.

    Murphy moved into the starting lineup, replacing Herbert Jones who was ruled out due to a back injury. Jones suffered the injury in Friday's win over the Clippers after taking a hard fall. While Murphy should be rostered in all formats, he could see a small bump should Jones be forced to miss more time moving forward.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Starting against Portland

    Murphy will start Saturday's game against Portland, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    This is an expected move with Herbert Jones (back) out of the lineup. As a starter this season, Murphy holds averages of 14.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.1 steals and 3.1 three-pointers.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Shines off bench Sunday

    Murphy had 28 points (10-18 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes during Sunday's 116-103 win over the Hawks.

    Murphy not only looked impressive off the bench Sunday, but he led the Pelicans in scoring on a night where Zion Williamson and CJ McCollum were the only starters who reached double-digit points. Murphy might be stuck in a bench role if everyone on the Pelicans' roster is healthy, but that doesn't mean he doesn't carry fantasy upside. Murphy is averaging 22.2 points per game while shooting 52.9 percent from the field and 48.1 percent from three over his last five games off the bench.

  • Pelicans' Trey Murphy: Explodes for 10 threes

    Murphy posted 34 points (11-17 FG, 10-14 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 29 minutes during Tuesday's 139-98 victory over the Raptors.

    Murphy's 10 threes tied a career high, and his 34 points marked a season high. He's scored 25-plus points and hit six or more triples in three of his last four games while providing a scoring spark for the Pelicans. With New Orleans near full strength, Murphy continues to operate off the bench, which may make it difficult for the sharpshooter to replicate Tuesday's performance.
