Takeaways
- The Pels (3-8) lost a close game to the Brooklyn Nets (5-6).
- This team is really fighting hard considering they have one-two starters out there.
- Trey Murphy was back in action and he definitely helped out the spacing on the floor so Brandon Ingram wasn't double-teamed the whole game.
- Yves Missi and Brandon Boston Jr. are real bright spots on this incredibly-injured team.
- The Pelicans play their next two games at home in back-to-back game against the Denver Nuggets and the Los Angeles Lakers.
- Jose Alvarado is added to the injured list as he is out for six weeks with a hamstring injury.

Team Stats (Trail Blazers at Pelicans) Final Score: 120-143 Rebounds: 419-57 Assists: 27-36 Blocks: 7-8 Steals: 5-10 Turnovers: 15-8 Stat Leaders Scoring Leaders: Shaedon Sharpe, 21; Trey Murphy III, 24 Rebound Leaders: Kris Murray, 9; Yves Missi, Saddiq Bey, 8 Assist Leaders: Deni Avdija, 6; Derik Queen, 7 My Player of the Game: Derik Queen Chrissy's Key Takeaways * The Pelicans have won their fourth game of the season. Yay ! * Jordan Poole was back tonight and he made a world of difference. His three-point shooting, confidence, and leadership were a ton of help. * Derik Queen is a problem for all other 29 teams in this league. This kid has a vision that hasn't been seen in any recent rookies, especially for a center. * Bryce McGowens was the second-leading scorer in this game with 23 points. He's stepped up in a big way. * In surprising news, Zion Williamson is questionable for Sunday's game at the Chicago Bulls. This is the first time in what seems like years that Zion's health is actually improving much sooner than projected. Whether this is a sign of Zion pushing himself or James Borrego pushing him, it's nice to see. Follow @TheKneaux on X, and follow me there too, @SportsChrissy.
