Dejounte Murray tallied 12 points (5-of-10 FGs), three rebounds, one assist and two three-pointers in Monday’s loss to the Warriors.

The Pelicans didn’t have Trey Murphy or Zion Williamson on Monday, and those absences were certainly felt. Murray shot a solid percentage from the field and led the Pelicans starters in scoring, but it wasn’t enough when the Warriors knocked down 21 three-pointers. Murray has been close to a top-50 player in nine-cat formats, but it’s fair to wonder if his presence in the lineup has limited Jeremiah Fears’ fantasy ceiling. That’s something to watch as the season progresses.
