The first game of New Orleans Pelicans in the new 2024/25 NBA season ended with the most bittersweet outcome possible. The franchise defeated the Chicago Bulls, but has indefinitely lost Dejounte Murray.
The player made his debut as the star signing of the Pelicans this summer, when he was traded to the team from the Atlanta Hawks. However, a left hand fracture has brought drama to New Orleans.
Before his hand fracture, Murray had 14 points, 10 assists, and eight rebounds, showing how crucial he is.
Now the team will have to face a long period without their player, as they await the return of Zion Williamson who couldn't debut last night due to illness.
