Bryce McGowens - Starting Friday McGowens is in the Pelicans' starting lineup against the Bucks on Friday.
Impact McGowens will make his 12th start of the season Friday due to the absence of Trey Murphy (shoulder). As a starter this season, McGowens has averaged 9.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.0 threes and 0.8 steals over 27.3 minutes per game.

Bryce McGowens - Earns three-year deal The Pelicans signed McGowens to a three-year contract Friday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Impact McGowens was previously on a two-way contract. He's fared well across 32 appearances, averaging 7.9 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 19.9 minutes per contest. He's likely to play a larger role with Trey Murphy (back) still sidelined.

Trey Murphy III - Won't play Friday Murphy (shoulder) will not play Friday against the Bucks.
Impact No surprise here, as Murphy was previously listed as doubtful. For the time being, it's unclear if Murphy will be able to return Saturday against the 76ers. Bryce McGowens and Jeremiah Fears could be more involved for the Pelicans on Friday.

Yves Missi - Out with calf strain Missi is out for Friday's game against the Bucks due to a strained left calf.
Impact Missi was sidelined for New Orleans' final outing before the All-Star break with left calf soreness, which has since been downgraded to a strain. Saturday's matchup versus the 76ers marks the second-year big man's next opportunity to play. Karlo Matkovic and Kevon Looney should make up a timeshare for the backup center minutes behind Derik Queen on Friday.

Micah Peavy - Out again Friday Peavy (toe) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bucks.
Impact Peavy will miss a second straight game while dealing with a right toe sprain. His next chance to take the court will arrive Saturday against Philly.
1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE
Trey Murphy III - Doubtful for Friday Murphy is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Bucks due to a right shoulder contusion.
Impact Murphy exited New Orleans' Feb. 11 loss to Miami due to the right shoulder issue and is expected to miss the first outing following the All-Star break. If he's ultimately ruled out, Bryce McGowens and Jeremiah Fears would be candidates for increased roles, while Jordan Hawkins could enter the rotation.

Dejounte Murray - Nearing return to action Murray (Achilles) is expected to make his season debut at some point in the next week, Erin Summers of the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network reports.
Impact After tearing his Achilles in January of last year, Murray is in the final stages of his rehab while fully participating in practice. Although the star guard is closing in on making his first appearance of the 2025-26 campaign, Murray is almost certainly bound for a significant minutes restriction for at least his first several games back on the court. Murray's eventual return is likely to cut into the playing time of Jeremiah Fears at point guard.
