Behind a 30-point outburst from Trey Murphy, the New Orleans Pelicans notched their first summer league victory. After beating the Atlanta Hawks by a 101-73 margin, however, all thoughts were with E.J. Liddell, who potentially suffered a devastating right knee injury.
Just watched a medical staff member pull EJ’s grandmother out of the stands and bring her to the locker room. I don’t like that sign.

Dyson Daniels, who is not expected to play again during this summer league, sprained his right ankle in game 1 on Saturday; however, his injury isn’t remotely considered to be serious.
