  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Available Friday

    Murray (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Rockets.

    Murray was probable on the Nuggets' injury report for Friday's matchup and will officially be able to suit up despite his right ankle sprain. He also suited up Wednesday against the Clippers with restrictions, but he still posted 23 points, six assists, a steal and a block in 29 minutes.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Probable for Friday

    Murray is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Rockets due to a right ankle sprain.

    Murray has not recovered entirely from the sprain affecting him of late, but the probable tag suggests he should play with little to no limitations against the Rockets. If that's the case, then Murray should remain in the starting lineup with Reggie Jackson operating as a backup. Murray is averaging 17.0 points and 7.1 assists per game this season.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Productive in loss

    Murray logged 23 points (10-18 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six assists, one block and one steal across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 111-102 loss to the Clippers.

    Although there was talk of a minute restriction for Murray, he played 29 minutes and appeared 100 percent after the ankle injury that sidelined him for 11 games. He sat out back-to-back games after logging only 16 minutes in his return, and there could be some additional instances where Murray takes a seat for injury management.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Playing under restrictions

    Murray (ankle) will play Wednesday barring a setback in warmups, but he'll be under a minutes restriction, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.

    Though Murray didn't log a full practice this week due to a right ankle sprain, he's set to take on the Clippers on Wednesday. While he'll have his minutes monitored, Murray should be expected to replace Reggie Jackson in the starting lineup.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Officially questionable

    Murray (ankle) is questionable to play Wednesday against the Clippers.

    Murray logged a partial practice Tuesday, but he has yet to return to full activity amid a two-game absence due to a right ankle sprain. More details on his status should arise throughout Denver's pregame routine Wednesday.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Logs partial practice

    Murray (ankle) was a limited participant at Tuesday's practice, and his status for Wednesday's game against the Clippers is to be determined, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Murray has missed Denver's past two contests after suffering an ankle sprain in his return from an 11-game absence due to a hamstring injury. Murray appears to be ramping up, but his involvement at practice Tuesday featured no live basketball, per coach Michael Malone, so Murray likely still has hurdles to clear. Friday against Houston would mark Murray's next opportunity to take the court if he can't suit up Wednesday.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Won't play Saturday

    Murray (ankle) will not play in Saturday's game against the Kings, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    Murray will miss his second straight game with his ankle issue, but he's believed to be day-to-day. Reggie Jackson (quadriceps) is expected to draw the start in Murray's place once again. Murray's next chance to play will be Wednesday against the Clippers.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Iffy against Sacramento

    Murray (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game versus the Kings.

    Murray is in danger of missing his second straight game Saturday due to a sprained right ankle. If the star guard is unable to suit up, Reggie Jackson (quadriceps) will likely receive another start.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Won't play Friday

    Murray (ankle) will not play in Friday's game against the Suns, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

    Murray can't seem to catch a break. He just returned from an 11-game absence Wednesday due to a hamstring issue, only to sprain his ankle in the process. It remains to be seen if he'll be available for Saturday's game against the Kings. With Murray out, Reggie Jackson will likely be tasked with running point for the Nuggets.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Questionable at Phoenix

    Murray is questionable for Friday's matchup at the Suns due to a sprained right ankle.

    On Wednesday, Murray returned from an 11-game absence due to a hamstring injury. He had a quality outing, posting 16 points (4-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds and six assists in 22 minutes with no turnovers in the win over the Rockets. However, he sprained his right ankle in the process and now may need to sit out again. Reggie Jackson should rejoin the starters if Murray cannot play.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Struggles from field in return

    Murray (hamstring) closed with 16 points (4-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds and six assists across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 134-124 win over the Rockets.

    On the surface, Murray had a decent showing against Houston, especially when considering he hadn't played since Nov. 4 due to a nagging hamstring injury that kept him out for 11 straight games. The Nuggets kept Murray's playing time in check in his return from a three-and-a-half-week absence, but the 26-year-old probably only needs another game or two to get fully ramped up. Murray's return to the lineup is expected to most negatively affect Reggie Jackson, who moved to the bench and finished with 14 points in 24 minutes after erupting for a season-high 35 points over 40 minutes in the Nuggets' previous game Monday against the Clippers.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Returning to face Rockets

    Murray (hamstring) will play in Wednesday's game against Houston, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

    Murray will make his long-awaited return after missing 11 games with a right hamstring strain. While it's likely Murray will be under some sort of restrictions, he should be expected to replace Reggie Jackson in the first unit for Wednesday's tilt. In the seven games he's played, Murray has averaged 16.3 points, 7.4 assists and 2.6 rebounds over 30.9 minutes.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Chance to suit up Wednesday

    Murray (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

    Murray has missed 11 straight games due to a right hamstring strain, but as Shams Charania of The Athletic reported earlier in the week, the point guard will have a chance to suit up Wednesday. If available, Murray would presumably be subject to a minute restriction following a lengthy absence, but more information on his workload will likely be available prior to the 9 p.m. ET tipoff.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Out Monday, could return soon

    Murray (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Clippers but could return later in the week, Shams Charania reported on FanDuel TV's "Run It Back" program.

    Murray will miss an 11th straight game Monday due to a right hamstring strain, but his return to action appears imminent. Charania said the All-Star guard is considered day-to-day at this point, adding that Murray could return as soon as Wednesday's matchup versus Houston. However, the Nuggets will end Week 6 with a Friday/Saturday back-to-back set versus the Suns and Kings, respectively, so even if Murray is cleared this week, it's difficult to imagine him playing in more than two games. Murray will presumably be subject to a minute restriction following a lengthy absence, so Reggie Jackson should continue to get plenty of run over the next couple of days.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Remains out

    Murray (hamstring) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Spurs.

    Murray will miss his 10th straight game Saturday due to a right hamstring strain. His next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with the Clippers.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Not playing Friday

    Murray (hamstring) has been downgraded to out to face the Rockets on Friday.

    Murray was always expected to be sidelined for Friday's contest, so this is not a surprise. Hamstring injuries are extremely tricky, and the Nuggets are taking a cautious approach with one of their best players. Reggie Jackson will remain as the starting point guard, while Murray's next chance to return will come Sunday at home against the Spurs.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Out Wednesday, likely out Friday

    Murray (hamstring) will not play Wednesday in Orlando and is considered doubtful for Friday's matchup in Houston, Vic Lombardi of AltitudeTV reports.

    As expected, Murray likely won't return to action during the Nuggets' current five-game road trip despite traveling with the team. However, he could be back in the mix Sunday, when Denver returns home to face San Antonio. Murray hasn't been cleared for full-contact drills yet but has been partaking in pregame workouts.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Unlikely to play on road trip

    Head coach Michael Malone said Monday that he doesn't think Murray (hamstring) will be ready to play in any of the remaining three games of the Nuggets' road trip, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

    Murray is traveling with the team during the five-game trip, which started Friday in New Orleans. However, the star point guard looks like he'll remain sidelined for at least the next three contests before potentially returning when Denver plays its next home game Sunday versus San Antonio. Per Winge, Murray has been going through pregame workouts and is progressing well, but the team's medical staff hasn't cleared him for full-contact work yet. In Murray's absence, Reggie Jackson has moved into the starting lineup, but Christian Braun has also made a strong impact off the bench during recent games.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Not ruled out for road trip

    Head coach Michael Malone said Thursday that Murray (hamstring) is getting closer to a return and will join the Nuggets for their five-game road trip, which begins Friday in New Orleans, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports. "I don't know if on this road trip he'll play or not," Malone said, when asked about Murray's status.

    Murray suffered a right hamstring strain Nov. 4, and though the Nuggets never put an official timeline on the star point guard's return to the lineup, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported last week that Murray was expected to remain sidelined through the end of the month. Though Malone is leaving the door open for Murray to potentially play during the road trip -- which runs through Nov. 24 -- it's more likely than not that the Nuggets will take a cautious approach and give him the recommend 3-to-4 weeks off for his hamstring to properly heal. At the very least, Malone's comments Thursday would seem to indicate that Murray has made progress on some level in his recovery.
