Murray's injury appeared to occur with a little more than two minutes left in the fourth quarter against Chicago, which was Murray's first game with the Pelicans. The former All-Star went up for a 3-pointer with his team leading by 12, but was contested by Zach LaVine and took a hard fall.

Offseason acquisition and former All-Star Dejounte Murray, suiting up in his first regular-season game for the Pelicans, suffered a fractured hand at some point during the victory. He managed to finish off the game and posted a statline of 14 points, 10 assists, and eight rebounds. But he will miss "extended" time, per ESPN's Shams Charania.
