At this point, the NBA world can only share its sympathies for the promising guard, Dejounte Murratu. On the other hand, the New Orleans Pelicans’ brutal season had its latest blow, completely crushing the hopes that the team managed to erect in the last few games. Amid this grueling situation, the team has two important updates. One is a wholesome message from the king himself, LeBron James. Secondly, the Pels front office seemed to have immediate action ready.
Tonight, taking on the Boston Celtics, the New Orleans side faced an unfortunate situation in the very first quarter. Around the 3:51 mark, Murray tore his right Achilles tendon in an attempt to rebound his own missed shot. The 28-year-old star knew it right there, as he hobbled off to the sideline and the staff assisted him to the locker room. Moments later, the team announced that the star was sidelined for the rest of the season.
In reaction to the unfortunate update, LeBron James expressed his despair via his X handle. The superstar wrote, “Speedy and healthy recovery to my lil bro!! Love man!” with a flurry of praying emojis.
. Speedy and healthy recovery to my lil bro!! Love man!
