New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray's return has already been announced and remains the only positive news from the latest injury report.
The New Orleans Pelicans have just one more home game before a six-game West Coast road trip begins, as the Golden State Warriors come to town on Tuesday night.
The Pelicans have already announced the highly-anticipated return of Dejounte Murray, but he's not the only New Orleans player who has been hurt.
Here is how the Pelicans' injury report looks before Tuesday:
Dejounte Murray (right Achilles rupture) - Available
Trey Alexander (G League two-way) - Out}
Hunter Dickinson (G League two-way) - Out
Yves Missi (left calf strain) - Out
Micah Peavy (right great toe sprain) - Out
Trey Murphy (right shoulder contusion) - Out
Murray is the only New Orleans player making his return against the Warriors.
Murphy still has not returned to practice since his shoulder injury against the Miami Heat. This will be his third missed game in a row, with this issue beginning to look a little worse than initially expected.
Missi was also missing from practice, but rookie wing Peavy did practice on Monday, per James Borrego. It looks like it'll be Peavy up next to make his return.
The rotation that Borrego goes with will be interesting to see with Murray back, and even more so when the other players start to return as well.
Here is what the Warriors' injury situation looks like:
Stephen Curry (right pattelofemoral) - Out
Seth Curry (left sciatic nerve) - Out
Jimmy Butler (ACL tear) - Out
LJ Cryer (G League two-way) - Out
Kristaps Porzingis (illness) - Out
Nate Williams (G League two-way) - Questionable
De'Anthony Melton (left knee) - Questionable
Draymond Green (left low back) - Questionable
Al Horford (left toe) - Questionable
Golden State has been decimated by injuries recently. Even a few players who were healthy for their last game have now been ruled questionable.
Perhaps the Pelicans can take advantage of that, plus the return of Murray, and pick up a win.
