New Orleans Pelicans Team Update
Green: Young Guys Have Filled In Nicely; Ingram, Murphy Set To Return
![](https://imgur.com/ECc8zvd.jpg)
"Our young guys have filled in nicely in Brandon [Ingram] and Trey's [Murphy] absence," said Pelicans head coach Willie Green. "I'm proud of them. And they showed me something."
He was referring to the group of second-year wing Dyson Daniels, rookie guard Jordan Hawkins, and rookie forward EJ Liddell when he made those statements.
"We're looking forward to getting our guys healthy and back into the rotation, but these young fellas are definitely going to keep making key contributions for us," said Green.
EJ Liddell Season Stats: 8.3 Pts, 2.6 Reb, 40.5% 3P
Dyson Daniels Season Stats: 5.2 Pts, 3.3 Reb, 46.1% FG
Jordan Hawkins Season Stats: 4.9 Pts, 42.9% 3P, 90.0% FT

In related news, both Brandon Ingram and Trey Murphy III have both been cleared by doctors. Expect to see both of them in full health when the Pelicans take on the Golden State Warriors – who sit in first place in the West at 26-10 – at the Chase Center on January 10th.

prolly ej liddell just for the pick and pop.. hes also shown some good prowess on defense at times. but dyson daniels can create his own shot and has popped for double digits a bunch. all three are really fun tbh.
