Goes for 25 points
Murphy provided 25 points (7-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 10-10 FT), three rebounds, one block and three steals over 35 minutes during Friday's 118-115 loss to the Mavericks.
Analysis
Murphy is firmly entrenched as one of the most reliable scoring options for the Pelicans this season, and the forward has often hovered around the 20-point mark while putting up solid numbers in other categories. Murphy has posted 20 or more points in seven of his last eight games, averaging 25.6 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.4 steals per game.

Logs season high in triples in loss
Murphy supplied 23 points (7-14 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five steals, three assists, two rebounds and one block across 36 minutes in Wednesday's 125-118 loss to the Nuggets.
Analysis
Murphy knocked down a season-high-tying five triples and finished as New Orleans' second-leading scorer, albeit in a losing effort. The fifth-year swingman continues to provide value on both ends of the floor. He tallied a season-high five steals against Denver and has recorded at least three swipes in three straight games. The 25-year-old has also scored at least 18 points in each of his last seven outings.

Season-high four steals Sunday
Murphy registered 20 points (6-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and four steals across 31 minutes during Sunday's 124-106 loss to Golden State.
Analysis
Murphy led the team in scoring and turned in a season-high four steals, but it wasn't enough to prevent a blowout defeat. Zion Williamson (hamstring) appears to be on the verge of returning to the court, which may lead to a dip in usage for Murphy soon. In any case, Murphy has averaged a strong 19.8 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.5 steals in 13 games this season, shooting 45.6 percent from the field.
