Pelicans Take Trey Murphy At 17
3 years agoWith the No. 17 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, the New Orleans Pelicans have traded Virginia guard Trey Murphy. Murphy's NBA game is all about shooting, as he shot 43.4 percent from three last season and 92.7 percent from the foul line. Murphy's ability to shoot off the catch should help him find early minutes in the Pelicans rotation, as he'll contribute greatly to their need for spacing around star Zion Williamson. Murphy might struggle to create his own shot, but he's a capable defender who fits the 3-and-D mold that teams want.
