Nov 7 Murphy missed Indiana's game at New York with a bruised lower back, leaving the winless Pacers without their leading rebounder.

Advice: Murphy was hurt Tuesday after a hard foul in the first quarter of the Pacers' 111-93 home loss to Denver. Indiana coach Jim O'Brien said he didn't know how long the forward would be out, but said he had trouble putting his shoes on Wednesday. Murphy is averaging 8.7 points and 9.7 rebounds. He was second in the league in rebounding and third in 3-point percentage last season.

Nov 6 Murphy (back) is doubtful to play in Friday's game against the Heat due to a bruised lower back, the Miami Herald reports.

Recommendation: He missed Wednesday's game with the ailment, so don't count on him playing on Friday.
