Pelicans Rumors

Pelicans’ Trey Murphy Out At Least 3 Weeks With Hamstring Strain

October 3rd, 2024 at 3:50pm CST by Rory Maher

Pelicans wing Trey Murphy sustained a right hamstring strain during Wednesday’s practice, the team announced (via Twitter). An MRI on Thursday confirmed the injury, and Murphy will be reevaluated in approximately three weeks.

The timing of the injury is certainly unfortunate for Murphy, who is eligible for a rookie scale extension until Oct. 21, the day before the 2024/25 regular season begins. It’s obviously discouraging news for New Orleans as well, which will be without one of its best shooters for the rest of training camp and preseason.

It seems likely that Murphy will miss some regular season games as a result of the injury. Soft-tissue injuries are notoriously tricky to manage, and Murphy will be reexamined in three weeks; that doesn’t mean he’ll be ready to play at that point. Three weeks from today is Oct. 24, and the Pelicans season-opener is Oct. 23 vs. Chicago. They also have five more games at the end of October.

Murphy, 24, was the No. 17 pick of the 2021 draft. The start of his ’23/24 season was delayed by knee surgery, which caused him to miss the team’s first 19 games. Overall, he averaged 14.8 PPG, 4.9 RPG, 2.2 APG and 0.9 SPG on .443/.380/.815 shooting in 57 regular season games last season (29.6 MPG).

Murphy will make $5.16MM in ’24/25, which is the final season of his rookie scale contract. If he doesn’t sign an extension this fall, he will be eligible for restricted free agency next summer.

Pelicans Notes: Ingram, Centers, Williamson, Alvarado

October 2nd, 2024 at 10:59am CST by Luke Adams

It has become increasingly rare for a star player on an NBA team to go through the offseason prior to his contract year without being extended or traded, but that’s the situation that Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram finds himself in this fall.

As Christian Clark of NOLA.com writes, Ingram – who will become an unrestricted free agent in 2025 if he doesn’t sign a new contract before July – was asked this week about the possibility of signing a preseason extension. The former All-Star said he doesn’t “expect anything” and that he’s happy to focus on basketball.

“Me and (Pelicans head of basketball operations David Griffin) have had some conversations, a few conversations,” Ingram said on Monday at media day. “But at the end of the day, it’s a business. As long as I do the basketball part, the business is going to handle itself — whether it’s here or somewhere else. I just have to continue to put the work in.”

Griffin acknowledged that the situation has the potential to get awkward, but he expressed confidence that it won’t be a distraction for Ingram or the Pelicans due to the trust the two sides have in one another.

“The reason people don’t get into this situation is there is not a level of trust between the two parties that he could enter the year and perform at a high level and be about the right things and we would honor our commitment to him,” Griffin said, per Clark. “Neither party has that fear. It’s going to be a unique situation. I know what it’s supposed to look like is one thing or another. We’re not worried about that. He’s a really unique guy with a unique skill set.”

Here’s more on the Pelicans:

Although Ingram returned at the end of last season from the knee injury that sidelined him for 12 games, he admitted he wasn’t at full strength during the playoffs and that it took a while for him to get back to 100%. “Gone through some ups and downs trying to get the knee back healthy,” Ingram said, according to Clark. “It actually was a long summer trying to get the knee back healthy. I’ve been working out hard. Working out at 100%. I’m ready to go.” Griffin explained Ingram’s absence from a voluntary mini-camp in August by telling reporters, “(He) wasn’t ready for that physically, and he knew it.”
With Jonas Valanciunas and Larry Nance Jr. no longer on the roster, the Pelicans’ new group of centers is made up of journeyman Daniel Theis and rookies Yves Missi and Karlo Matkovic. There will be plenty of instances during the season when none of those bigs are on the floor for New Orleans, according to head coach Willie Green. “I’m not dead set on (starting a true center). I’m pretty undecided,” Green said (story via Will Guillory of The Athletic). “When we get to camp, I think your team helps you make those decisions. … There are going to be a ton of games when we don’t have a traditional center on the floor.”
While Zion Williamson will be the biggest player on the court in certain Pelicans lineups, Griffin pushed back against labeling the former Duke star a small-ball center, per Guillory. “Zion grew up a point guard. He grew up with the ball in his hands. He literally identifies the game by facing the basket and handling the ball,” Griffin said. “He’s never been traditional as a big in any way, shape or form. And yet, because he’s large, people want to make him a ‘big.’ He’s really not that.”
Taking more jump shots will be a priority for Zion this season, Griffin told reporters, including Clark. Williamson is on board with that plan, though he stressed that he’s not just focused on continuing to develop his offensive game and wants to make a real impact on defense too. “Whenever I’m in great condition, I feel like my play on both ends of the floor is at a high level,” Williamson said. “Not just one.”
In case you missed it, Jose Alvarado‘s two-year, $9MM contract extension with the Pelicans is now official. It features a flat structure, with a $4.5MM guaranteed salary in 2025/26 and a $4.5MM player option for ’26/27, Hoops Rumors has confirmed.

Pelicans Sign Adonis Arms To Camp Deal

October 1st, 2024 at 12:29pm CST by Luke Adams

The Pelicans have made a minor change to their 21-man training camp roster, announcing today in a press release that they’ve signed guard Adonis Arms and waived guard Izaiah Brockington.

Arms, 26, has played in the G League since going undrafted out of Texas Tech in 2022, spending time with the Nuggets’ and Grizzlies’ affiliates in his first two professional seasons. In 42 total Showcase Cup and regular season NBAGL games last season for the Memphis Hustle, he averaged 16.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per contest, with a shooting line of .458/.399/.720.

The Birmingham Squadron announced last month that they’d acquired Arms’ returning rights from the Hustle in a five-team trade, which is a signal that the Pelicans’ plan is to waive him before opening night and have him report back to the G League this fall. Assuming Arms spends at least 60 days with the Squadron, he’ll earn an Exhibit 10 bonus worth up to $77.5K.

That figures to be the plan for Brockington too. He signed an Exhibit 10 deal with New Orleans last week after spending the 2023/24 season with Birmingham.

And-Ones: NBAGL Trades, Extension Candidates, Woj’s Replacement, More

October 1st, 2024 at 9:29am CST by Luke Adams

Toronto’s G League affiliate – the Raptors 905 – has made a pair of trades in recent days, including a four-team deal that sent Kennedy Chandler‘s returning rights to the 905, according to Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca (Twitter link). As we noted recently when the NBA’s Raptors signed and waived Chandler, their G League team still needed to acquire the guard’s rights in order to get him on the 905’s roster this fall.

That four-team trade also saw the Long Island Nets acquire Au’Diese Toney‘s returning rights and a 2025 first-round pick, the Birmingham Squadron (Pelicans) acquire Trhae Mitchell‘s returning rights, and the Rio Grande Valley Vipers (Rockets) land the rights to Devin Cannady and Markquis Nowell along with a 2024 first-round pick.

In the 905’s other trade, the Raptors’ affiliate sent Koby McEwen‘s returning rights to the Windy City Bulls in exchange for Evan Gilyard‘s rights, tweets Murphy.

Fred Katz of The Athletic identifies five of the most interesting extension-eligible veterans to keep an eye on this fall, singling out Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon, Grizzlies big man Jaren Jackson Jr., and Mavericks center Daniel Gafford, among others.
Who are the candidates to replace Adrian Wojnarowski as ESPN’s top NBA insider? According to reporting from Andrew Marchand of The Athletic and Michael McCarthy of Front Office Sports, while big-name NBA reporters like Shams Charania and Chris Haynes are possibilities, it’s also not out of the question that one of ESPN’s other top news-breakers, such as Jeff Passan or Adam Schefter, could end up in the role. Marchand says Passan is a candidate to switch from MLB to the NBA, while McCarthy suggests it’s not out of the question for Schefter to take on a dual role covering the NFL and NBA.

Pelicans, Jose Alvarado Complete Two-Year Extension

September 30th, 2024 at 7:47pm CST by Luke Adams

SEPTEMBER 30: The Pelicans have issued a press release officially announcing Alvarado’s extension.

SEPTEMBER 28: The Pelicans and guard Jose Alvarado have agreed to a two-year contract extension worth $9MM, agent Ron Shade tells Shams Charania of The Athletic (Twitter link).

Alvarado is earning $1,988,598 in 2024/25 in the final year of his current minimum-salary contract. That salary, which had been non-guaranteed, will become fully guaranteed as part of the agreement, tweets ESPN’s Bobby Marks.

The new extension will begin next July and will include a player option for the ’26/27 season, according to Charania.

Alvarado, 26, has spent the past three seasons in New Orleans after going undrafted out of Georgia Tech in 2021. He emerged as a regular contributor for the Pelicans as a rookie free agent in 2021/22, earning a promotion from his two-way contract to the standard roster near the end of that season, and has maintained his place in the team’s rotation since then.

In 2023/24, Alvarado averaged 7.1 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.1 steals in 18.4 minutes per game across 56 appearances off the bench. Nicknamed “Grand Theft Alvarado” for his habit of making highlight-reel steals, the Pelicans guard posted a shooting line of .412/.377/.673 and finished sixth in Sixth Man of the Year voting last season.

The maximum extension that Alvarado could have signed would’ve been similar to the one Andrew Nembhard received from Indiana, worth over $18MM in 2025/26. While that would’ve been an overpay, the Pelicans did very well to lock up the reserve guard for an additional season at just $4.5MM, a bargain for any effective rotation player. If he continues to produce in New Orleans, Alvarado could opt out in 2026 and seek a more lucrative deal at that time.

The Pelicans now have seven players on guaranteed contracts for the 2025/26 season, with Jordan Hawkins likely to join that group in the next few weeks when the team exercises his rookie scale team option. Brandon Ingram (unrestricted) and Trey Murphy (restricted) will be among New Orleans’ 2025 free agents if they don’t sign extensions of their own.

Southwest Notes: Zion, Wembanyama, Grizzlies, Griffin

September 30th, 2024 at 9:02am CST by Arthur Hill

Zion Williamson was headed toward the defining moment of his NBA career in April before another injury knocked him out of action, writes William Guillory of The Athletic. The Pelicans star had just scored his 40th point to complete an 18-point comeback and tie the Lakers late in their play-in game when he felt a jolt of pain in his left hamstring. Williamson’s season was over, and although New Orleans still made the playoffs, its first-round series ended with a four-game sweep.

Feeling he had failed the team and the city, Williamson embarked on an intense early-morning workout schedule for the offseason, according to Guillory. Since July, in a small gym near Dallas, he has embraced his motivation to become one of the game’s elite players. He and the organization are finally on the same page after years of reported division, Guillory adds.

“I want to be one of them ones. I’ve been talking about it and I’ve been making mistakes (along the way),” Williamson said. “That stuff can’t happen. It’s time to take every game personal.”

Another sign of Williamson’s commitment was his decision to take part in the team’s voluntary August workouts in California for the first time in his career. He hoped to create a stronger bond with his teammates while improving his game in the process.

“(I want to) learn from (Brandon Ingram). Learn from CJ (McCollum). Learn from guys who have been in the league longer than me. Paying attention to their professionalism,” Williamson said. “Not even being a good teammate, just being a good brother. So when you get on the court, your teammates believe in you. They trust your work, and they trust that you’ve got them.”

There’s more from the Southwest Division:

Victor Wembanyama‘s progress after an offseason that included playing in the gold medal game at the Olympics will be the focus as the Spurs prepare to open camp, per Jeff McDonald of The San Antonio Express-News. “He’s bound to make a jump,” Julian Champagnie said. “He’s going to get stronger. He’s going to get better. He’s going to learn the game a little bit more. He’s only 20. I’m excited to see where he goes these next couple of years.” McDonald examines a few other pre-camp storylines, including the additions of veterans Chris Paul and Harrison Barnes, potential rotation changes with Devin Vassell still recovering from surgery and expectations for lottery pick Stephon Castle.
Finding an experienced backup point guard should be a priority for the Grizzlies following the retirement of Derrick Rose, Damichael Cole and Jonah Dylan of The Commercial Appeal state in a training camp preview. Cole mentions unsigned free agents Markelle Fultz and Dennis Smith Jr. as possibilities.
Former Rockets forward AJ Griffin confirmed that his sudden retirement from the NBA was a spiritual decision, BasketNews relays. “I feel like letting go of basketball is allowing me to go into full-time ministry and truly serve the Lord with all my heart, with all my time too, as well,” Griffin said in a video on his YouTube channel. “I’m just excited where that leads me.”

Western Notes: Nuggets, Westbrook, Clippers, Lakers, Pelicans, Meeks

September 29th, 2024 at 7:15pm CST by Dana Gauruder

Among the noteworthy developments revealed during the press conferences held by Nuggets general manager Calvin Booth and coach Michael Malone on Thursday was that the team is open to adding a 3-point shooter by the trade deadline, according to Bennett Durando of the Denver Post.

“We are riding a fine line with our shooting when you have Russell Westbrook, Aaron Gordon and Peyton Watson all in your rotation,” Booth said. “And I think Christian (Braun) should be left out of that conversation when he shoots 42.9% above the break last year. But it is gonna be a fine line. It’s something we have to monitor. If we need to address our shooting at the trade deadline, we’ll do it.”

Another interesting tidbit is that Westbrook wasn’t mentioned as a potential starter, but he could be in the closing lineup.

We have more from the Western Conference:

The Clippers have plenty of concerns heading into training camp, among them Kawhi Leonard‘s health status and whether James Harden can take an even bigger role at age 35 after the departures of Paul George and Westbrook. The Orange County Register’s Janis Carr explores five major storylines for the club.
The five-storyline motif was also the subject of Khobi Price’s preview of Lakers camp for the Register. Among the topics he dove into were Anthony Davis‘ usage, Jarred Vanderbilt‘s injury status and first-rounder Dalton Knecht‘s role.
Former NBA guard Jodie Meeks has been added to the Pelicans’ coaching staff, according to a team press release. The Pelicans announced a number of other staff additions and promotions. Former WNBA star Swin Cash has been promoted to senior VP of basketball operations and Rohan Ramadas has been elevated to senior director of analytics and innovation. New Orleans also officially announced Dan Geriot as an assistant coach and Greg Monroe as a player development assistant.

Pelicans Sign Jalen Crutcher To Exhibit 10 Deal

September 25th, 2024 at 3:00pm CST by Luke Adams

Free agent guard Jalen Crutcher has signed a contract with the Pelicans, according to RealGM’s official log of NBA transactions. It’s a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 deal, tweets Keith Smith of Spotrac.

Since going undrafted out of Dayton in 2021, Crutcher has spent three seasons in the G League, including two with the Greensboro Swarm and one with New Orleans’ affiliate, the Birmingham Squadron.

In 49 total games for the Squadron last season, Crutcher averaged 17.0 points, 5.6 assists, and 3.3 rebounds in 35.4 minutes per game and shot the ball well, with a 40.5% mark from beyond the three-point line and 86.3% from the free throw stripe. His strong play in Birmingham earned him a 10-day contract with the Pelicans in February — he appeared in just one game for the team, making his NBA debut on Feb. 27.

A player who signs an Exhibit 10 contract can have it converted to a two-way deal before the regular season or can qualify for a bonus worth up to $77.5K if he’s waived and then spends at least 60 days with his team’s G League affiliate.

Given that the Pelicans don’t have a two-way opening and the Squadron already hold Crutcher’s NBAGL returning rights, the latter scenario appears more likely for the 25-year-old.

Southwest Notes: Monroe, Pelicans, T. Allen, Klay, Mavs

September 25th, 2024 at 1:33pm CST by Luke Adams

Longtime NBA center Greg Monroe is joining the Pelicans‘ coaching staff in a player development role, according to Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune.

The seventh overall pick in the 2010 draft, Monroe averaged 13.0 points and 8.2 rebounds per contest in 646 regular season games across 10 NBA seasons with the Pistons, Bucks, Suns, Celtics, Raptors, Sixers, Timberwolves, Wizards, and Jazz. He last played in the league during the 2021/22 season, when he spent time with four different teams from December to April. The 34-year-old has also competed in Germany, Russia, China, and Puerto Rico.

As Clark observes, Monroe is a native of Baton Rouge, Louisiana who attended high school in the New Orleans area and won Louisiana’s Mr. Basketball Award in 2007 and 2008 before playing college ball at Georgetown. Monroe told The Times-Picayune in 2023 that he was living in Metairie – which is where the Pelicans’ practice facility is located – when he wasn’t playing overseas.

Here’s more from around the Southwest:

Word broke back in May that the Grizzlies would retire Tony Allen‘s No. 9 jersey during the 2024/25 season. Now there’s an official date for the ceremony. According to a press release from the team, Allen’s No. 9 will be retired on Saturday, March 15 after the Grizzlies’ game against Miami. The former defensive standout will be the third player in team history to have his jersey hung in the rafters, joining Zach Randolph (No. 50) and Marc Gasol (No. 33).
Appearing on The TK Show with Tim Kawakami (Spotify link), Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said he believes Klay Thompson will benefit from a fresh start with the Mavericks, as Grant Afseth of The Dallas Hoops Journal relays. “We all wanted him to stay. I wanted Klay to be a Warrior for life, it felt like the right thing. (But) you never really know what the right thing is for someone else, only that person knows,” Kerr said. “And I think by the end of the year, I think Klay knew for his own sake that he wanted to leave. … I’m happy for him, I think this will be a great move. He’s going to play for a great team, two high-level creators, he should get a lot of open shots. I think sometimes a career change, a late-career change can refresh and recharge you.”
Although the addition of Thompson might increase the Mavericks‘ ceiling in 2024/25, repeating as Western Conference champions won’t be an easy feat, according to Eddie Sefko of Mavs.com, who looks at some of the challenges standing in the way of another trip to the NBA Finals for Dallas.

Pre-Camp Roster Snapshot: Southwest Division

September 25th, 2024 at 8:00am CST by Luke Adams

Hoops Rumors is in the process of taking a closer look at each NBA team’s current roster situation, evaluating which clubs still have some moves to make and which ones seem most prepared for training camp to begin.

This series is meant to provide a snapshot of each team’s roster at this time, so these articles won’t be updated in the coming weeks as more signings, trades, and/or cuts are made. You can follow our roster counts page to keep tabs on teams’ open spots as opening night nears.

We’re wrapping up our pre-camp Roster Snapshot series today with the Southwest Division. Let’s dive in…

Dallas Mavericks

Players on guaranteed standard contracts: 14
- Spencer Dinwiddie, Luka Doncic, Dante Exum, Daniel Gafford, Quentin Grimes, Jaden Hardy, Kyrie Irving, Maxi Kleber, Dereck Lively, Naji Marshall, Dwight Powell, Olivier-Maxence Prosper, Klay Thompson, P.J. Washington
Players on non-guaranteed standard contracts: 2
- A.J. Lawson, Markieff Morris
Players on Exhibit 10 contracts: 3
- Jazian Gortman, Emanuel Miller, Jamarion Sharp
Players on two-way contracts: 2
- Kessler Edwards, Brandon Williams

Although Morris’ salary isn’t guaranteed, I’d expect him to fill the 15th spot on the Mavericks‘ opening night roster. His non-guaranteed contract should give them some additional flexibility during the season — for instance, they could waive him ahead of the January 7 league-wide guarantee date, re-sign him to a couple 10-day contracts, then bring him back on a rest-of-season deal after February 6 once they know they won’t need that 15th roster spot for a trade acquisition.

With one two-way slot still available, the Mavs could hold a camp competition for that opening. In addition to their three Exhibit 10 players, Lawson would also be two-way-eligible, though he’d have to be waived and re-signed rather than directly converted.

Houston Rockets

Players on guaranteed standard contracts: 14
- Steven Adams, Dillon Brooks, Tari Eason, Jalen Green, Jeff Green, Aaron Holiday, Jock Landale, Reed Sheppard, Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith, Jae’Sean Tate, Amen Thompson, Fred VanVleet, Cam Whitmore
Players on Exhibit 10 contracts: 2
- Nate Hinton, Jermaine Samuels
Players on two-way contracts: 3
- N’Faly Dante, Jack McVeigh, Jeenathan Williams

After buying out AJ Griffin, the Rockets have an open spot on their projected 15-man standard regular season roster. They’re well below the luxury tax line, so they’d have no issue carrying a 15th man on a minimum-salary contract (or even something more lucrative than that, if they so choose). Still, with so many players on the roster who have a case for rotation minutes, Houston may not be in a rush to fill that spot by adding someone who won’t play.

Even though the Rockets’ three two-way slots are currently occupied, I’d expect Hinton and/or Samuels to receive consideration for a two-way deal if they impress in camp. Houston also has room on their roster to bring two more players to camp.

Memphis Grizzlies

Players on guaranteed standard contracts: 13
- Santi Aldama, Desmond Bane, Brandon Clarke, Zach Edey, GG Jackson, Jaren Jackson Jr., Luke Kennard, John Konchar, Jake LaRavia, Ja Morant, Marcus Smart, Jaylen Wells, Vince Williams
Players on Exhibit 10 contracts: 4
- Armando Bacot, Yuki Kawamura, Miye Oni, Maozinha Pereira
Players on two-way contracts: 2
- Jay Huff, Scotty Pippen Jr., Cam Spencer

The Grizzlies opened up a pair of standard roster spots within the last month by waiving Mamadi Diakite and Derrick Rose. Because they stretched Diakite’s partial guarantee and got Rose to agree to give up his full salary, they’re nearly $6MM below the luxury tax line, giving them more than enough breathing room to carry a full 15-man roster into the season if they want to.

I’d expect Memphis to peruse the free agent market for a 14th man, but it’s worth noting that Pippen – who played a rotation role for much of last season – is a strong candidate to be promoted from his two-way contract to the standard roster sooner or later. If that happens before the season, there would be an opening for one of the Grizzlies’ Exhibit 10 signees to have his contract converted to a two-way deal.

Like Houston, Memphis has enough room on its 21-man preseason roster to bring two more players to camp.

New Orleans Pelicans

Players on guaranteed standard contracts: 13
- Javonte Green, Jordan Hawkins, Brandon Ingram, Herbert Jones, Karlo Matkovic, CJ McCollum, Yves Missi, Trey Murphy, Dejounte Murray, Antonio Reeves, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, Daniel Theis, Zion Williamson
Players on non-guaranteed standard contracts: 1
- Jose Alvarado
Players on Exhibit 10 contracts: 3
- Izaiah Brockington, Keion Brooks Jr., Matt Ryan
Players on two-way contracts: 3
- Jamal Cain, Malcolm Hill, Trey Jemison
Players who have reportedly reached contract agreements: 1
- Elfrid Payton (Exhibit 10?)

Alvarado is a lock to make the roster, and the Pelicans – who never pay the tax – are already hovering a little above the luxury tax line, so I’d bet on them leaving their 15th roster spot open to start the season in order to save some money.

The only wild card there could be if the team makes a preseason trade. I wouldn’t necessarily count on that, but New Orleans remains on the lookout for a starting-caliber center and Brandon Ingram‘s future with the team is still in question.

After signing and waiving Galen Robinson Jr. on Tuesday, the Pelicans have an open spot on their 21-man roster to finalize Payton’s deal, though they may rotate other players in and out of that spot before camp begins next week for G League/Exhibit 10 bonus purposes.

San Antonio Spurs

Players on guaranteed standard contracts: 15
- Harrison Barnes, Charles Bassey, Malaki Branham, Stephon Castle, Julian Champagnie, Sidy Cissoko, Zach Collins, Keldon Johnson, Tre Jones, Sandro Mamukelashvili, Chris Paul, Jeremy Sochan, Devin Vassell, Victor Wembanyama, Blake Wesley
Players on Exhibit 10 contracts: 4
- Brandon Boston Jr., Malachi Flynn, Riley Minix, Jameer Nelson Jr.
Players on two-way contracts: 2
- David Duke, Harrison Ingram
Players who have reportedly reached contract agreements: 2
- Nathan Mensah (Exhibit 10)

Barring a preseason trade, the Spurs‘ projected standard roster looks set with their current 15 players on guaranteed contracts.

It’s unclear whether there will be an open competition for the final two-way contract or if San Antonio has someone specific in mind for it. Boston would be a good candidate — he has over 100 games of NBA regular season experience on his résumé and has one more year of two-way eligibility left. Flynn, on the other hand, is ineligible for a two-way deal.

I’d expect the Spurs to cut Minix or Nelson at some point in the coming days to make room for Mensah, though it’s possible his Exhibit 10 deal won’t be completed until later in October.
