New Orleans’ injury misfortune has continued, as Trey Murphy recently suffered a season-ending injury. It’s been a brutal season in that respect for the Pelicans, as they’ve missed key players for significant chunks of the season, which has contributed to their poor record. Minnesota is getting hot at the right time and looks like a team that could carry momentum into the playoffs and win a series or two, regardless of final seeding.
Following this contest, the Pelicans and Timberwolves will both remain in Minnesota to take the court against one another again on Friday night. That will be the second contest in three days between these squads.
Regional restrictions may apply.
