Does it matter? With load management in today’s NBA players skip games all the time even healthy.

Considering Murray's timeline, probably below 10%

You're automatically at %0 for a decent portion of the season simply because of Murray being out. Top 10 players healthy is unrealistic for most any team. But with the Pels, even if you took the top 6, the percentage is likely still %0. Maybe %5.

What counts is the health of Zion, Trey, Herb, and Poole. If those four all play 60+ games, then we are a clear playoff team. If one of them does not, we might make the play-in. If two of them do not, then we're in the lottery and people are furious at Dumars for trading our pick.

With a fully healthy roster and Willie as coach we would still struggle to make the play in. All I can think about when it comes to the pelicans is “ unprotected 1st” smh

That's because they don't think that we will be healthy, and there's good reason to think that. But Zion, Trey, Herb, and Poole are all in The Ringer's top 100 players. A team with 4 of the league's top 100 players should be a playoff team if healthy.

Yeah, and it's not only about the health of the top four guys. It's also that we have such little depth. Bey, Looney, and Jose are the only guys who might be able to get off the bench for most playoff teams, so their health is also important.
Hawkins and Karlo are replacement-level players. Rookies are usually worse than replacement-level.
Any injuries to our top 8 rotation players will significantly impact us, because we simply do not have the depth to handle those injuries, at least until the new year or whenever Murray comes back.
