Analysis and forward look: The stretch of games with frequent 20-point outings establishes Bey as a primary scoring option in the Pelicans' rotation this season. A key near-term variable is the timeline for Dejounte Murray's clearance for a season debut from an Achilles issue; once Murray is cleared, Bey's usage and shot volume may change. For now, the observable indicators—game-by-game box scores and the stated season-best characterization—point to Bey carrying a substantial offensive workload in recent games.
