The Pelicans were made better tonight through Bryce McGowns just being a guard that isn’t absolutely terrible and able to suit up and play.

Trey Murphy deserves credit for a career night.
But he’s not a star.
Stars win games, even on bad teams. They want the ball in *those* moments and are decisive.
Not only did he not come through or cough it up, I’ve seen him so it several times this season.
Valuable player, not a star.

That’s why I have a hard time rocking with OKC. SGA gets the softest whistle in the NBA while there’s absolutely no accountability for Lou Dort’s constant illegal contact.

My digital video and feature interview series for the Fox 8 Digital Desk returns to production tomorrow.
In 2026, we plan to produce these segments more frequently.
