Ruled out for Tuesday
Murray (hand) is out for Tuesday's game against the Jazz.
Analyse
Murray will be sidelined for a third straight contest, though he remains day-to-day, considering he was previously listed as questionable. It remains to be seen if the Pelicans attempt to clear him for the final two games of the regular season with nothing to play for.

Could return Tuesday
Murray (hand) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Jazz.
Analyse
Murray will have a chance to return to the court Tuesday after missing two consecutive games -- one due to rest and the other because of a bruised left hand. He'll presumably need to prove his health during shootaround and warmups to gain clearance to play. New Orleans should have another update on his status closer to game time.

Downgraded to out
Murray (hand) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Magic.
Analyse
Murray missed Friday's loss in Sacramento due to rest purposes during the second night of a back-to-back set, but he'll be sidelined Sunday due to a new hand injury. Given he was initially listed as questionable, Murray appears to be day-to-day. However, it's unclear if he'll suit up during the final week of the regular season, as the Pelicans have nothing to play for. With Trey Murphy (ankle) also sidelined Sunday, Jeremiah Fears should see increased usage.

Questionable for Sunday
Murray is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Magic due to a left hand contusion.
Analyse
Murray sat out Friday's loss to the Kings for rest purposes, but now he's in danger of missing Sunday's game due to a bruised hand. If he needs to skip another match, Jeremiah Fears would have the opportunity to play extended minutes.
3. April 2026
Not available Friday
Murray has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Kings due to right Achilles injury management.
Analyse
As expected, Murray will miss the second leg of the Pelicans' back-to-back set for maintenance purposes after he played 28 minutes in Thursday's loss to the Trail Blazers. Jeremiah Fears will likely replace Murray in the starting five Friday and could be in line for a 30-plus-minute role.
