Everyone plays in the Pelicans' Oct. 6 preseason opener, Zion Williamson and Trey Murphy III included, coach Jamahl Mosley said at practice. Dejounte Murray is back from injury and scrimmaging daily against Jeremiah Fears, who added: "The guys not going to play a lot."
Zion Williamson is trying to shoot more, per Trey Murphy III, who works with him after Pelicans practice on keeping his mechanics consistent. Coach Mosley has shown Herb Jones clips of his gambling; he wants Jones in the gaps, not jumping passing lanes.
