 Troy Murphy-F/C- PacersFeb. 6 - 11:43 pm et
Pacers PF Troy Murphy was held to just six points on Saturday, going 2-of-8 from the field with 11 rebounds and two assists in 36 minutes.
Murphy wasn't alone in his struggles, as no starter scored more than Danny Granger's 14 points and the starting unit was a collective 17-of-45 (37.8%) from the field. He's normally a lock for a double-double so don't think too much about this off-game.

 Troy Murphy-F/C - Pacers Feb. 2 - 9:43 pm et

Troy Murphy had 20 points on 8-of-14 shooting, two 3-pointers and 14 rebounds on Tuesday, eventually fouling out in a win over the Raptors.
Crucially, Murphy played 37 minutes after playing sub-30 in six of the past seven games. He is reportedly on the trade block but the Pacers aren't giving him up cheap -- a rumored deal with Cleveland has stalled because Indy wants too much in return (Zydrunas Ilgauskas' expiring contract, J.J. Hickson, and draft picks).

Coach Jim O'Brien said that Troy Murphy will likely start the majority of games at center, with Roy Hibbert coming off the bench.
This really doesn't affect either player too much, since Hibbert can barely stay on the court in his bout with foul trouble, and Murphy will post similar numbers regardless of whether he starts or not.

 Mike Dunleavy-G/F - Pacers Jan. 31 - 5:35 pm et  

Mike Dunleavy and Troy Murphy are starting against the Raptors on Sunday, with Dahntay Jones and Roy Hibbert moving to the bench.
Owners can adjust each players' value a bit, but don't go overboard. More interestingly, the move to start Murphy may be a sign that Andrea Bargnani is going to play, since Murphy can better defend perimeter players which may be the reason Indy made the move.

 Troy Murphy-F/C - Pacers Jan. 30 - 11:47 am et

Troy Murphy is the Pacers player who "most likely could be moved" before the February 18 trade deadline, according to beat writer Mike Wells.
One hurdle is injuries to Jeff Foster (back) and Tyler Hansbrough (ear) which leaves Indiana very thin up front. The team would also like to unload T.J. Ford but that won't be easy since he is owed $8.5 million next season.

 Troy Murphy-F/C - Pacers Jan. 29 - 9:45 pm et

Troy Murphy struggled coming off the bench against the Cavs on Friday, scoring just 10 points on 4-of-8 shooting (including a three) with only four rebounds and one assist.
He did have four steals and two blocks, taking much of the sting out of this stinker. He has been playing very consistently as of late, and owners should be willing to give him a pass on this one.
