Murray was also probable for Friday's win over Utah, a game in which he played 25 minutes. He should occupy his usual place in the Pelicans' starting lineup as the point guard. Murray's minutes on Friday were limited due to the nature of the game, which New Orleans held firm control of throughout the fourth quarter. Jose Alvarado will play more minutes if Murray is limited or cannot play.
Murray (elbow) is probable for Monday's game against the Jazz.
The Pelicans are without rookie center Yves Missi, who will not play due to an illness. He'll be replaced in the lineup by Theis, who began the season as New Orleans' starting center. He offers minimal streaming value in this spot, especially since there will be times when Williamson plays the five.
Murray hasn't missed a game since returning from a month-long absence on November 27, and he'll be available once again on Friday. New Orleans' point guard has averaged 18.7 points, 6.5 rebounds and 7.8 assists across his last 10 appearances.
