The New Orleans Pelicans and rising star Trey Murphy III have agreed to a massive four-year, $112 million rookie contract extension. This deal, which includes no incentives or player options, ensures Murphy remains a key part of the Pelicans' future for the next five seasons. However, fans will have to wait a bit longer to see him back on the court as he is expected to miss the start of the 2024-25 season due to a hamstring injury suffered in practice. Despite this setback, Murphy is poised to continue his role as one of the top 3-and-D wings in the NBA once healthy.
Murphy is coming off a career-best season, averaging 14.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 2.2 assists while shooting 44.3% from the field and 38% from beyond the arc. His presence on the court complements key players like Dejounte Murray, who averaged 22.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 6.4 assists last season, and CJ McCollum, who knocked down 3.6 shots from beyond the arc per game. Herbert Jones’ defensive impact, averaging 0.8 blocks per game, further strengthens the Pelicans' lineup. Together, this core sets the Pelicans up for success as they navigate a competitive Western Conference.
Meanwhile, the Pelicans' season opener against the Chicago Bulls will showcase the talent on both sides. The Bulls bring key players like Nikola Vucevic, who averaged 18 points and 10.5 rebounds, and Coby White, who added 19.1 points per game while shooting 37.6% from three-point range. As Murphy heals from his hamstring injury, the Pelicans will rely on their deep roster to make a playoff push.
