"You're sitting next to Zion there, you guys are the veteran leaders now of this group. How do you feel like you can lead the two of you this Pelicans squad this year?" Dejounte Murray: "You got to lead by example. You got to be on time, you got to be the ultimate pro, put your work in day in, day out, take care of your body. Those unseen hours, when you're in your hotel room, when you're on the recovery table, you got to take care of yourself so we're available. The best ability is availability, and I understand that. Hopefully Zion understand that. He's doing really great, I think he feels the same way of just being healthy and being with whoever he's working with and just trying to be consistent and put the work in. We're going to need everybody, it's not about one, two, or three guys, you're going to need the whole organization."
Trae Young: "I can play multiple ways. A lot of people just see what I've done and me being ball-dominant. I can't wait to show other things. My boy Dejounte Murray, who's with me 24/7, he was my point guard for a lot of years and I was just a shooter. I didn't do nothing but just shoot the ball. So I can't wait to show that. But also, yes, you can win with a smaller guard, of course. It's been done before."
New Balance executive Chris Davis: If you look at the NBA, I’m pretty sure we have seven or eight All-Stars, starting with Kawhi (Leonard) to Zach LaVine, Tyrese Maxey, Jamal Murray, Dejounte Murray, Darius Garland, and then enter Cooper Flagg. In this year’s draft, we have Caleb Wilson, who is a star freshman from North Carolina and will be a top-five pick. And then as a senior in high school, we have Jordan Smith Jr., who’s the top recruit in the country going into the NCAA; he’s committed to Arkansas. So that’s what the basketball landscape looks like.
The Pelicans have listed Dejounte Murray (left hand contusion) as questionable for Sunday's game against Orlando. Karlo Matkovic (low back spasms) and Trey Murphy (right ankle sprain) are also questionable.

Josh Lewenberg: I asked Jamal Shead about Dejounte Murray sitting out. To little surprise, he took the high road. Said it didn't matter, they just need a win. And yes, after what the Pelicans did to them a couple weeks ago + the way their road trip ended in LA, they shouldn't be lacking for motivation
