[Wojnarowski] ESPN Sources: Pelicans G/F Trey Murphy III underwent surgery to repair a slightly torn left meniscus and is expected to miss 10-to-12 weeks. That timeline could have him back in mid-November.

1. I am ok with this.

2. I think 10-12 weeks is for return to basketball activities. Will prob be a bit longer before he’s playing in games

3. Jordan Hawkins if u get minutes pull that shit

4. That is absolutely okay. This procedure is definitely the right choice and we will have him back with 10-15 games played I guess. Hawkins will show up and show out in the meantime 💪🏽

5. Curious why they went with this instead of a repair.

6. I hope this was the best long-term option for his career. 10-12 weeks isnt terrible at all in the short term if so

7. Not sure what calendar this guy uses. It’s a return to practice in December, and we won’t see Trey in games until the new year. Bank on it, accept it, plan on it and we can move forward.

8. The team announced on instagram that it was a partial meniscectomy, which is removing part of it…

9. I’ll take a guess and say late December or early January.

   Good thing we drafted that UCONN kid

10. we’ll see him after the all-star break

11. Feels like a lot more seasons than not, since Chris Paul was here, there’s been an injury to at least one core player right before the season starts.

12. someone on IG asked “is it 10-12 weeks or is it the pelicans medical staff 10-12 weeks?” 😂

13. Absolutely best choice. Having him healthy for the rest of his career is far more important that having a quick return.

14. whats the conversion for 10-12 pelicans weeks to regular weeks?
