Dejounte Murray
New Orleans Pelicans · G
Injury risk score: 64/100 (Medium).
Current status: not on today’s NBA injury report.
Why Dejounte Murray’s risk score is 64
- Injury History (+42): 13 recorded injury events, 5 in the past 18 months, 4 severe
- Non-Injury Absences (context only): Missed games for illness/personal reasons in the past 18 months: ~1 (not counted toward risk score)
- Recurring Injury (+14): Achilles has been the site of 3 separate injury episodes — a recurring, chronic-pattern concern rather than isolated bad luck
- Contract Year (×0.96): Not yet in a contract year (starter-tier contract) — already secure enough that preservation instinct dominates
The injury risk score (0–100) is built from a player’s injury history — how often, how recently and how seriously he has been hurt — plus a body part that keeps failing, age, a recent return from injury, and his contract situation. 70+ is High risk, 40–69 Medium, under 40 Low.
