Trey Murphy explodes for career-high 41 points, leading Pelicans to 127-110 win over Trail Blazers

Today was definitely a new day.

After the offense failed to show up in last night’s 110-96 loss to the Thunder, the New Orleans Pelicans found their groove less than 24 hours later, absolutely pounding the Portland Trail Blazers into oblivion.

The fireworks began early. Trey Murphy had nine points within the first five minutes. The Pelicans had doubled up the Trail Blazers (24-12) on the scoreboard just past the midpoint of the first quarter.

They went on to finish the frame with 42 points.

New Orleans totaled 44 points in the first half against the Thunder.
