Pelicans Herb Jones (shoulder) and CJ McCollum (adductor) are both out for at least two weeks, likely longer
The basketball gods are very angry with New Orleans. Trey Murphy III (hamstring) and Dejounte Murray (fractured hand) are already out.

New Orleans (2-3) certainly will be tested early with injuries to their core players.
No starting backcourt (Murray/McCollum), forward (Jones) and 6th man (Murphy III)
The Pelicans have 5 out of the next 6 at home (Indy, Atlanta, Portland, Cleveland, Brooklyn).
Rankings last 5 – 2:57 PM

The Pelicans being down Herb Jones, CJ McCollum and Trey Murphy all at once isn’t exactly how they were hoping this season would be going, to say the least. Big opportunity ahead, in particular, for Jordan Hawkins, who has had some early bright moments — and will need some more. – 2:10 PM

More bad luck for Pelicans. Herb Jones has a right shoulder strain and a small low-grade partial thickness tear in the rotator cuff; team says recovery takes about 2-4 weeks. Return based on how he responds.
CJ McCollum has a right adductor strain and will miss about 2-3 weeks. – 2:06 PM

Pels’ Jedi defense has finally suffered too many losses to hold up. 73 points in the last 2 quarters for Golden State. Already missing Trey and Dejounte, and now Herb Jones is on the bench with a shoulder issue, questionable to return. – 11:48 PM

Yves Missi was kneed in the groin/quad area in the first half and now Herb Jones right shoulder area is in pain after Podziemski landed on it with his full body weight when they were going after a loose ball.
No more injuries, please. – 11:27 PM

Herb Jones is coming out the game. Podziemski fell on Herb’s arm on that last loose ball on the Warriors’ end.
Javonte Green checking in for Pels.
Herb is trying to stretch out that right arm right now. Initially wanted to stay in the game.
Walking to locker room now. – 11:25 PM

Much better rebounding (Pels lead 9-1) and energy to start game vs. Warriors. Herb Jones making multiple hustle plays (of course) – 10:17 PM
