Trey Murphy posted 19 points (8-of-16 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), three rebounds, three assists and four steals over 36 minutes during Friday’s loss to the Suns.
Murphy has been the most impactful all-around fantasy contributor for New Orleans this season, averaging 20.5 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.7 steals and 0.2 blocks over 30 games. The 25-year-old forward would be the most valuable trade chip for the franchise at the upcoming deadline, but it seems unlikely they’ll decide to move him. The Pelicans are in line for a busy four-game week coming up after a rematch this weekend against Phoenix.
