Denver's marquee guard showed no ill effects from his lingering knee injury, and he will likely play Saturday against the Wizards despite the back-to-back scenario.

Murray (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Lakers.

After being listed as probable, Murray has been expectedly upgraded to available with a knee injury Friday. The star guard has averaged 22.9 points, 6.0 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 3.1 three-pointers in 37.8 minutes across his last 11 outings.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the Thunder.

Murray is in danger of missing the second half of Denver's current back-to-back set after posting 17 points and four assists in 42 minutes during Sunday's loss in Oklahoma City. If he's sidelined, Russell Westbrook, Christian Braun and Jalen Pickett would be candidates for increased roles.

Murray racked up 31 points (10-22 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 35 minutes during Friday's 134-119 victory over the Pistons.

Murray had a solid start to Friday's game with 13 points in the first half, but he truly came alive in the third quarter when he dropped 15 points while connecting on 3 of 4 three-point attempts. He finished as the game's leading scorer and was one of four Nuggets players to score at least 23 points in a much-needed win. Murray has been playing through left knee inflammation since before the All-Star break, but over his last eight outings he has averaged 27.8 points on 53.2 percent shooting (including 58.5 percent from three on 8.1 3PA/G), 5.4 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.5 steals over 36.0 minutes per contest.

Murray (knee) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Pacers.

Murray continues to be listed on the injury report due to left knee inflammation, but he's missed only one game since the start of the new year and should be cleared to play Monday.

Murray (knee) has been upgraded to available for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

The probable tag on Murray suggested the star floor general was expected to suit up Saturday. Since that's precisely what will happen, the star floor general should handle his regular workload on offense as one of Denver's primary offensive weapons behind Nikola Jokic. Murray is averaging 26.6 points, 2.6 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 1.1 steals per game since the beginning of February.

Murray is listed as probable for Saturday's game versus the Lakers due to left knee inflammation.

Murray is expected to suit up Saturday despite continuing to deal with a nagging knee issue. Murray is averaging 36.0 minutes across his last four outings, so the star guard is unlikely to operate on a minutes restriction if he's upgraded to available.

Murray (knee) has been listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Hornets.

Murray has missed only seven games so far this season for Denver, and it doesn't appear he'll miss an eighth game Thursday against the Hornets despite dealing with inflammation in his left knee. Prior to the NBA All-Star break, Murray erupted for a career-high 55 points in the win over the Trail Blazers, as it seems he's back to form as one of the better scoring guards in the league, which is a great sign for the Nuggets and fantasy owners in the final stretch of the 2024-25 campaign.

Murray had 55 points (20-36 FG, 7-15 3Pt, 8-9 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals over 42 minutes during Wednesday's 132-121 victory over the Trail Blazers.

Only Hall of Famer David Thompson (who poured in 73 points back in April 1978) and Nikola Jokic (with a 56-point performance Dec. 7 against the Wizards) have had better scoring efforts than Murray's career-best night since the Nuggets joined the NBA. The seven threes were also a season high for the 27-year-old guard, and his fireworks came with Russell Westbrook (hamstring), Aaron Gordon (calf) and Michael Porter (hamstring) all unavailable, putting even more of the offensive load on Jokic and Murray than usual. Through six appearances in February, Murray is averaging 25.3 points, 6.2 assists, 2.8 boards, 2.7 threes and 1.3 steals while shooting 54.1 percent from the floor and 42.1 percent from long distance.

Murray (knee) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Murray has been dealing with a knee issue, but that won't stop him from getting on the floor Wednesday for Denver against Portland.

Murray (knee) has been listed as probable to play in Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Murray will likely be on the floor for the Nuggets for Wednesday's matchup in Portland. The veteran guard has scored 20 or more points in five of the last seven games, helping pick up the slack with Russell Westbrook (hamstring) still on the mend.

Murray was ejected from Monday's game against the Trail Blazers after being assessed two technical fouls, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports. He produced 17 points (7-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 29 minutes before leaving.

Murray was in the process of finishing off an efficient final line, though his night was likely over anyway with the game well in hand for the Nuggets. His early exit shouldn't have much of an impact for most fantasy managers.

Murray (knee) is good to go for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Murray was deemed probable for Monday's contest, so his availability for this contest isn't entirely surprising. The star floor general should handle his regular workload as one of Denver's go-to options on offense and primary playmakers. Murray has averaged 22.2 points, 7.0 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 36.4 minutes per contest in his last five appearances.

Murray (knee) is listed as probable for Monday's game against Portland.

Murray is expected to suit up Monday while he deals with left knee inflammation. In the unlikely event that the 27-year-old is sidelined, Jalen Pickett and Christian Braun will likely see an uptick in playing time. Over his last five outings, Murray has averaged 22.2 points, 7.0 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 36.4 minutes per contest.

Murray notched 30 points (12-23 FG, 6-9 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals across 38 minutes during Saturday's 122-105 win over Phoenix.

After sitting out Thursday's game due to a minor knee issue, Murray appeared to be 100 percent healthy in his return as he led all scorers on the night while setting a new season high in made threes. The 27-year-old guard has scored at least 30 points in three of his last six appearances, averaging 24.0 points, 6.8 assists, 3.7 boards, 1.8 threes and 1.0 steals over that stretch while shooting 51.8 percent from the floor.

Murray (knee) is available to play against the Suns on Saturday.

Murray (knee) is expected to play Saturday against the Suns, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

After missing Thursday's win against the Magic, Murray appears to be on track to return to the floor Saturday against the Suns. The veteran guard is currently averaging 20.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, 6.1 assists and a career-high 1.4 steals per game this season for Denver.

Murray (knee) has been listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Suns.

After missing Thursday's win against the Magic due to left knee inflammation, Murray might be able to return to the floor Saturday for the Nuggets to take on the Suns. If the veteran guard cannot play in Phoenix, Denver could turn to Jalen Pickett and Julian Strawther to help shoulder the load in the backcourt.

Murray (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Magic, Brendan Vogt of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray will miss Thursday's game, the second of a back-to-back for the Nuggets, as he deals with left knee inflammation. Denver will likely have to lean on Jalen Pickett and Julian Strawther to pick up the slack in the backcourt with the star guard on the mend.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game versus Orlando.

Thursday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so a maintenance day could be on the table for Murray and Aaron Gordon (calf). Murray logged 36 minutes against the Pelicans on Wednesday, finishing with 10 points (5-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), six assists and two rebounds. If Murray is held out, Jalen Pickett and Julian Strawther could step into larger roles.

Murray contributed a team-high 31 points (12-22 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, 11 assists, one block and one steal in 40 minutes during Friday's 137-134 victory over the 76ers.

The double-double was his fifth of the season and first since Dec. 30. Murray has hit for 30 or more points in four of the last 10 games while scoring fewer than 18 points only once, averaging 25.0 points, 6.3 assists, 4.6 boards, 2.0 threes and 1.3 steals over that stretch while shooting 52.7 percent from the floor.

Murray put on a show at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday, albeit in a losing effort, putting up his highest scoring output since a 45-point eruption in the Jan. 14 win over Dallas. The 27-year-old is looking for his first career All-Star selection in 2024-25, and he's making a push with averages of 24.3 points, 5.8 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 2.2 three-pointers across his last nine outings. Murray is shooting 52.4 percent from the floor and 92.6 percent from the free-throw line over this time.

Murray closed with nine points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds and seven assists across 33 minutes during Tuesday's 144-109 victory over Philadelphia.

For the third time this season, Murray was held to single-digit points. He's been dealing with knee soreness for most of the season, but he also had some left calf tightness Tuesday which is why he popped up on the injury report with a probable tag.

Murray (calf) has been cleared to play Tuesday against the 76ers.

Murray will be on the floor Tuesday for the Nuggets. The veteran guard is coming off a 19-point performance in Sunday's win against the Magic and will look to make it seven wins in the last eight games for Denver while hosting the 76ers.

Murray is probable for Tuesday's game against the 76ers due to left calf tightness.

Murray was added to the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Heat due to knee inflammation, and he's now dealing with a minor calf ailment. However, the injury isn't expected to keep him from Tuesday's action. Expect Denver to release another update on the star point guard closer to tipoff.

Murray contributed a game-high 30 points (12-24 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists, one block and three steals over 37 minutes during Friday's 133-113 win over the Heat.

It was a strong all-around performance for the veteran point guard, who drained multiple threes for the fourth straight game and the seventh time in 10 January contests. On the month, Murray is averaging 20.9 points, 5.2 assists, 3.5 boards, 2.4 threes and 1.6 steals while shooting 45.3 percent from long range.

Murray (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Heat.

Left knee inflammation won't stop Murray from suiting up for the Nuggets on Friday, as the star guard was initially listed as probable. Across his last 10 games, Murray has averaged 19.9 points, 5.4 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.5 steals, and there's no reason to believe he'll face any kind of restrictions against Miami.

Murray (knee) is probable for Friday's game versus Miami.

Murray was able to push through his knee soreness in Denver's most recent back-to-back set, and fantasy managers can pencil him into lineups for Friday as well. Murray has averaged 19.9 points, 5.4 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.5 steals over his last 10 appearances.

Murray (knee) will play in Wednesday's game against Houston.

Murray has been battling left knee soreness, but he'll suit up for the closing end of the Nuggets' back-to-back set. After dropping 45 points Tuesday, Murray should be the focal point of Denver's offense Wednesday, as they'll be without Nikola Jokic due to right elbow inflammation.

Murray (knee) is probable for Wednesday's game versus Houston.

Murray continues to manage soreness in his left knee, but it appears that he'll give it a go for the second leg of this back-to-back set. During Tuesday's 118-99 win over the Mavericks, Murray erupted for 45 points (18-26 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists, two rebounds and two steals in 37 minutes.

Murray recorded 45 points (18-26 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists, two rebounds and two steals in 37 minutes during Tuesday's 118-99 win over the Mavericks.

Murray had been struggling going into Tuesday's contest, averaging 15.4 points on 42.9 shooting from the field in his previous five outings. However, Murray was able to turn it around against Dallas and lead Denver to a blowout victory. However, did cough up five turnovers compared to just six assists.

Murray (knee) will play in Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.

While Murray is dealing with left knee inflammation, this update doesn't come as much of a surprise given he was listed as probable ahead of Tuesday's action. Over his last nine contests, the star guard has averaged 18.4 points, 5.2 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 34.2 minutes. With the Nuggets back in action Wednesday during the second leg of a back-to-back against Houston, fantasy managers could find Murray back on the injury report ahead of that one.

Murray (knee) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.

While Murray missed the second half of Friday's win over the Nets with left knee inflammation, he was able to play 32 minutes during Sunday's win over Dallas and is expected to be available Tuesday. Over his last nine games, the star guard has averaged 18.4 points, 5.2 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 34.2 minutes.

Murray totaled 17 points (7-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-3 FT), two rebounds and two assists over 32 minutes during Sunday's 112-101 win over Dallas.

Murray didn't have his best shooting performance, and albeit it wasn't poor by any means, this was the fifth time he failed to reach the 20-point mark in his last six games. He's averaging 15.2 points per game while shooting 41.4 percent from the floor during that span.

Murray (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

Murray, Nikola Jokic (illness) and Aaron Gordon (calf) will all be available after being listed on the injury report, so it's unclear what Russell Westbrook's role will be moving forward. Murray hasn't missed a game since Dec. 23, but he played only 16 minutes during Friday's 124-105 win over Brooklyn. Before that, Murray averaged 20.2 points, 6.6 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 37.8 minutes over his prior nine appearances.

Murray (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Mavericks.

Murray is in danger of missing his first game since Dec. 23 on Sunday due to a left knee injury he suffered against Brooklyn. If Murray is ultimately ruled out, Jalen Pickett, Julian Strawther and Trey Alexander are candidates to receive increased playing time.

Murray didn't return for the second half of Friday's 124-105 win over the Nets with a sore left knee. He finished with seven points (2-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists and one steal in 16 minutes.

Murray was labeled as questionable to return with the injury shortly after the second quarter concluded, but Denver never provided another update on his status. Julian Strawther opened the second half with the starting group, and he or Aaron Gordon (calf) -- who could return from a nine-game absence -- would likely start Sunday in Dallas if Murray isn't available to play.

Murray (knee) is questionable to return to Friday's game against the Nets.

Murray played 16 minutes in the first half of Friday's game and logged seven points, four assists and one steal. His left knee appears to have flared up, which caused Julian Strawther to enter the Nuggets' starting lineup for the second half, and it remains to be seen whether Murray will return for the final two quarters of the game.

Murray had 21 points (7-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, nine assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 126-103 victory over the Clippers.

Murray finished just one assist away from recording what would've been his first double-double since Dec. 30, and he bounced back after a couple of subpar performances from the efficient perspective. Murray remains highly productive even in games where he hasn't been very efficient, however, and he's reached the 20-point mark in nine of his last 13 contests.

Murray closed Saturday's 122-111 overtime win over the Spurs with 13 points (6-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt), six rebounds, six assists, one block and five steals across 38 minutes.

Murray went 12-for-34 from the floor combined in this back-to-back set against the Spurs, scoring 13 points in each contest. That's clearly a step in the wrong direction, as Murray had reached the 20-point mark in eight of his previous nine outings before this back-to-back set. Even after two subpar shooting performances, Murray has looked on the rise in recent weeks compared to the poor start he endured in the opening weeks of the campaign.

Murray recorded 14 points (6-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt), four rebounds and seven assists in 37 minutes during Friday's 113-110 loss to San Antonio.

Murray has been playing at a high level of late, but he wasn't able to repeat those numbers in this match, mainly due to a woeful shooting performance. Despite the subpar stat line, this was just the second time Murray couldn't reach the 20-point mark over his last 10 games, a span in which he's averaging 22.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 1.7 steals per contest.

Murray closed Monday's 132-121 victory over Utah with 20 points (7-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, 10 assists, one block and two steals over 37 minutes.

The fact that both Nikola Jokic and Russell Westbrook posted triple-doubles reduced Murray's impact in the game. However, the star floor general extended his impressive stretch of play with his third double-double across his last six outings. During that six-game stretch, Murray has reached the 20-point mark five times while shooting 48.1 percent from the floor and an impressive 41.7 percent from three-point range.

Murray had 34 points (12-21 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal over 40 minutes during Saturday's 134-121 win over the Pistons.

Murray has been playing at a high level in recent weeks, but he turned more than a few heads Saturday after notching his best scoring mark of the season by a sizable margin -- his previous season-high output was 28 points, established twice and more recently on Dec. 16. The star floor general has reached the 20-point mark in all but one of his last seven outings, averaging 24.7 points and 6.3 assists per game while shooting 48.1 percent from the floor and 44.2 percent from three in that span. Murray's recent numbers have been impressive enough to say he's riding his most productive stretch of the entire season.

Murray (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Pistons.

Murray will suit up and should handle his regular workload in the backcourt as one of Denver's most reliable scoring weapons. He's been playing at a high level of late after scoring 20 or more points in five of his last six appearances, averaging 23.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game over that stretch.

Murray is probable for Saturday's game against the Pistons due to a left ankle sprain.

Murray has been tending to an ankle sprain but has played 39 and 40 minutes during the Nuggets' last two games. Saturday's contest is the closing leg of a back-to-back, so the Nuggets could opt to give Murray a slightly smaller workload. Regardless, it looks like he'll suit up and be available to play Detroit.

Murray ended Friday's 149-135 loss to the Cavaliers with 27 points (10-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, 11 assists and two steals across 40 minutes.

Murray extended his excellent run of play in recent weeks, and he reached the 20-point mark for the fifth time over his last six appearances. He also has two of the three double-doubles he's racked up this season over that six-game stretch. THe first two months of the regular season have taught that the Nuggets will only go as far as Nikola Jokic can carry them, but Murray's uptick in form over the last few certainly reaches the team's ceiling considerably.

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

Murray was deemed probable earlier Friday, so his availability for this matchup isn't surprising. The star floor general should handle his regular workload in the backcourt. Over his last five appearances, Murray is averaging 22.4 points, 5.8 assists, 4.8 rebounds and 2.0 steals per game.

Murray (ankle) is probable for Friday's game against Cleveland.

Murray returned from an ankle injury Wednesday against the Suns, though it appears the issue is still lingering. The team should have more clarification on his availability closer to tipoff.

Murray closed with 13 points (4-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and six assists over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 110-100 loss to the Suns.

Murray returned from a one-game absence but didn't look at his best. Aside from seeing his four-game streak of games with at least 20 points come to an end, the star floor general also notched his second-worst scoring output of the season. Murray is averaging 20.1 points and 6.1 assists per game in December, but the inconsistencies he's endured over the last few weeks conspire against his fantasy upside a bit.

Murray (ankle) will play in Wednesday's game against the Suns, Ramona Shelbourne of ESPN.com reports.

After sitting out the previous Nuggets-Suns game in Denver, Murray will be available for their return matchup at Phoenix. December has been a strong month for the 27-year-old, who is averaging 24.8 points (on 46.3/39.3/87.5 shooting splits), 5.8 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 steals in 37.3 minutes this month. Murray will look to keep the pace going against a Suns team relatively ripe for the picking with Devin Booker (groin) still out.

Murray (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Suns.

Murray missed the second leg of the Nuggets' back-to-back set Monday due to a sprained right ankle. He'll be on the injury report once again for Wednesday's contest. Should he miss, Russell Westbrook would likely draw another start while Jalen Pickett could see more minutes off the bench.

Murray (calf) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Suns, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray will sit out for the second leg of a back-to-back Monday due to a right ankle sprain. Given he was able to play 41 minutes in Sunday's overtime victory over the Pelicans, Murray should be available to play in Wednesday's rematch against the Suns. Murray's absence likely means that Russell Westbrook will make his seventh start of the 2024-25 regular season.

Murray is questionable to face the Suns on Monday due to a right ankle sprain.

Monday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so it's possible the team could take a cautious approach. Murray played a whopping 41 minutes during Sunday's 132-129 overtime victory over the Pelicans, finishing with 27 points (9-19 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 7-8 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals. Russell Westbrook could step into a larger role if Murray is unable to go Monday.

Murray contributed 27 points (9-19 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 7-8 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals in 41 minutes during Sunday's 132-129 overtime victory over the Pelicans.

Murray struggled with his shot from beyond the arc, but fantasy managers won't mind that if he manages to fill the stat sheet as he did Sunday. The star floor general struggled for the better part of the first two months of the schedule, but he's been playing at a high level of late with four straight games with at least 20 points, averaging 24.8 points, 5.8 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 steals per game in that span.

Murray posted 24 points (9-19 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and three steals over 38 minutes during Thursday's 126-124 loss to Portland.

Murray hasn't recorded a double-double since late November, but his three -game run since returning after a hamstring injury has been encouraging. He's averaged 24.0 points, 6.0 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 2.7 steals since returning to the first unit. His shooting percentages have also been on point over the three-game span. Murray has converted 45.9 percent of his shots since his return, and is drilling an eye-popping 47.4 percent beyond the arc.

Murray supplied 28 points (11-26 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one block over 38 minutes during Monday's 130-129 victory over Sacramento.

Murray has been dealing with hamstring inflammation in recent days, but the star floor general doesn't seem bothered by the issue once he hits the hardwood if we look at his recent outings. He's reached the 20-point mark in his two outings following a two-game absence in early December, and Murray is averaging 19.4 points, 5.8 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game since the beginning of the month. He seems to be trending in the right direction following a couple of subpar performances in both October and November.

Murray (hamstring) will play Monday night against the Kings.

Murray was added to the injury report as probable due to a lingering right hamstring injury, but it won't keep him from Monday's action. He pieced together a solid performance in his return Friday against the Clippers, finishing with 20 points, five rebounds, three assists, four steals and one block in 32 minutes.

Murray is probable for Monday's game against the Kings due to right hamstring inflammation.

Murray returned to action Friday following a two-game absence due to right hamstring inflammation and posted 20 points (8-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four steals, three assists and one block across 32 minutes. The point guard should suit up again Monday, and based on Friday's workload, he shouldn't face any restrictions.

Murray ended Friday's 120-98 victory over the Clippers with 20 points (8-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals across 32 minutes.

The Nuggets need Murray to be at his best if they're going to turn their season around, and the star floor general responded by posting a solid stat line in his return from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury. Murray has been heavily criticized for his play this season, but the recent signs show he's trending in the right direction. He's scored at least 18 points in five of his last six appearances, averaging 18.5 points per game and shooting 48.3 percent from the floor in that span.

Murray (hamstring) is available for Friday's game against the Clippers.

Apparently, Murray finished his pre-game routine unscathed, so he'll give it a go Friday. This means Russell Westbrook will head back to a bench role. Murray, who will return from a two-game absence, is averaging 18.2 points, 7.0 assists and 3.0 rebounds per game over his previous five contests.

Murray (hamstring) will go through his pre-game routine and will be a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Clippers, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray has missed the past two games for Denver due to right hamstring inflammation, and while he went through some portions of Wednesday's practice, a final call will be made closer to the 9 p.m. ET tipoff. Murray should return to the starting lineup if deemed available, but if not, Russell Westbrook would probably remain in the first unit.

Murray (hamstring) was able to go through portions of Wednesday's practice, Brendan Vogt of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray has missed the past two games for Denver due to right hamstring inflammation. Coach Michael Malone said Murray is still limited in what he can do, and noted that the guard will likely be listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Clippers. If Murray is unable to return, Russell Westbrook could draw another start with Jalen Pickett and Julian Strawther possibly seeing an uptick in minutes.

Murray (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hawks.

Murray will remain sidelined for a second consecutive game during the club's back-to-back set due to right hamstring inflammation. Russell Westbrook will likely draw another start in his absence, and Jalen Pickett and Julian Strawther are candidates to see an uptick in playing time off the bench.

Murray (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Hawks.

Murray missed Saturday's loss to Washington but has a chance to return for the second half of Denver's back-to-back set. If he's sidelined again, Russell Westbrook would likely draw another start.

Murray (hamstring) is out for Saturday's game against the Wizards.

Murray was absent from Saturday's shootaround, so his absence isn't entirely surprising, as the star guard is dealing with right hamstring inflammation. Russell Westbrook will likely get the start in the backcourt alongside Christian Braun, and Murray's next chance to play will come against the Hawks on Sunday in the second leg of this back-to-back set.

Murray (hamstring) wasn't spotted at morning shootaround ahead of Saturday's game against the Wizards, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports.

Murray remains questionable for Saturday's clash, though it would've been a positive sign to see him testing out his hamstring during team shootaround. The team will continue to monitor the point guard closely leading up to tipoff.

Murray is questionable for Saturday's game against the Wizards due to right hamstring inflammation.

Murray surpassed the 40-minute mark in the loss to the Cavaliers on Wednesday, marking just the second time he achieved that this season, but it's unclear if the inflammation is directly tied to the workload he's had of late. Regardless, the questionable tag suggests he could have a decent shot at playing Saturday in what figures to be a favorable matchup on paper. Murray is averaging 18.2 points, 7.0 assists and 3.0 rebounds per game over his last five outings.

Murray contributed 18 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven assists and one steal over 38 minutes during Sunday's 126-122 loss to the Clippers.

Murray's final stat line wasn't eye-popping by any means, but the star guard is trending in the right direction following a slow start to the 2024-25 campaign. The lack of efficiency has been one of the biggest knocks on his numbers this season, but he's shot 17-for-30 in his last two games, which marks a clear improvement over the recent weeks. Murray has also scored at least 18 points in four of his last six games.

Murray finished with 22 points (10-18 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and four steals across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 122-103 win over the Jazz.

Murray stayed on the court for 36 minutes despite the lopsided win. Although he only made one shot in six attempts beyond the arc, he made several plays in transition and offset the loss with a good mid-range result. Murray is on a decent five-game run, averaging 19.4 points, 7.4 assists, 4.8 rebounds and 1.7 steals over the span.

Murray racked up 20 points (6-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-9 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Monday's 145-118 loss to the Knicks.

Even though the Nuggets looked outmatched, Murray had a decent stat line in this blowout loss. Despite being outplayed by Jalen Brunson, who finished with 17 assists, Murray finished just three dimes away from a double-double and also reached the 20-point mark just for the fifth time in 2024-25. The overall season numbers are disappointing, though. Murray is averaging just 17.3 points per game since the beginning of November, a clear downgrade from the previous three campaigns in which he averaged more than 20 points per contest.

Murray amassed 14 points (4-16 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, 11 assists and three blocks over 39 minutes during Friday's 123-120 loss to Dallas.

It's the first double-double of the season for Murray. The veteran point guard has also rejected multiple shots in three straight games, and in six contests since returning from a concussion he's averaging 19.3 points, 7.3 assists, 4.5 boards, 3.0 threes, 1.3 steals and 1.2 blocks.

Murray closed with 13 points (6-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt), six rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and three steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 105-90 loss to the Grizzlies.

Murray should've been the one to carry the Nuggets in the absence of Nikola Jokic (personal), but he continues to shoot the ball poorly and failed to reach the 20-point mark for the sixth time in nine appearances this season. Murray should continue to experience an uptick in his usage rate with Jokic absent, but that won't matter much if he continues to struggle from the field. The star guard is shooting just 39.9 percent from the field and 30.2 percent from deep in his nine outings this season.

Murray produced 16 points (6-16 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 43 minutes during Friday's 101-94 loss to New Orleans.

Murray struggled with his shot and needed 16 field goal attempts to score 16 points -- certainly not the kind of output the Nuggets were hoping for with Nikola Jokic (personal) sidelined. Murray has been struggling this season, and aside from missing time with a concussion, the star floor general has struggled with efficiency. Through eight outings in 2024-25, Murray is averaging 17.9 points per game but shooting just 39.8 percent from the floor and 31.9 percent from deep.

Murray logged 18 points (7-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-5 FT), two rebounds and six assists in 38 minutes during Sunday's 122-120 victory over the Mavericks.

Murray didn't have his best shooting performance in this one, but he continues to post solid numbers since returning from a three-game absence due to a concussion earlier this month. Murray should remain Denver's No. 2 option on offense behind Nikola Jokic and will have every chance in the world to get things going following a less-than-ideal start to the season.

Murray finished with 28 points (9-17 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds and six assists across 35 minutes during Friday's 135-122 win over Miami.

Murray returned to the starting lineup following a three-game absence due to a concussion and looked better than ever. The point guard set season highs in points, made field goals and made three-pointers while dishing out at least six assists for just the second time this year. Murray shot only 36.5 percent from the field before his absence, so this was certainly an encouraging step in the right direction, though it may be a stretch to expect this type of production consistently. Murray averaged 21.2 points and 6.5 assists last season.

Murray (concussion) will be available for Friday's game against the Heat.

Murray is set to return following a three-game absence, and his return will send Russell Westbrook back to a bench role. Expect Murray to handle his regular workload as Denver's second-best option on offense behind Nikola Jokic.

Murray (concussion) is expected to play in Friday's game against the Heat, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports.

Murray has not officially cleared the league's concussion protocol yet, but it sounds like that is the expectation. Should that indeed occur, he will return from a three-game absence. Russell Westbrook would presumably go back to a bench role as a result.

Murray (concussion) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Heat.

Murray is in danger of missing his fourth straight contest Friday while in concussion protocols. If Murray is unable to suit up against Miami, Russell Westbrook should remain in Denver's starting lineup.

Murray (concussion) is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

The Nuggets are being extremely cautious with their star point, and since Murray remains in concussion protocol, that means Russell Westbrook should draw another start at point guard. Murray might be a few days away from being cleared, so his status should remain uncertain ahead of Friday's game against the Heat.

Murray (concussion) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Raptors.

Murray remains in concussion protocol, so Russell Westbrook should draw another start at point guard. Murray's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Oklahoma City, but he still has multiple hurdles to clear before getting the green light for game action.

Murray (concussion) is out for Saturday's game versus the Jazz.

Murray suffered a concussion against Minnesota that will keep him out for Saturday's contest. Russell Westbrook and Julian Strawther will likely receive increased playing time in his absence. Murray's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Toronto.

Murray has been ruled out for the remainder of Friday's game against the Timberwolves after being placed in concussion protocols, Jace Frederick of St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Murray was poked in the eye during the third quarter of Friday's game. He recorded six points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, two rebounds and a steal in 22 minutes. Given the multiple hurdles needed to clear concussion protocols, Murray can be considered unlikely to play Saturday versus Utah. In Murray's absence, Julian Strawther and Russell Westbrook are candidates for increased roles.

Murray went to the locker room in the third quarter of Friday's game against the Timberwolves after getting poked in the eye, Jace Frederick of St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Murray posted six points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, two rebounds and a steal in 22 minutes before exiting the contest. If he can't return Julian Strawther and Russell Westbrook would likely see increased usage.

Murray racked up 24 points (8-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-8 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 37 minutes during Tuesday's 144-139 overtime victory over the Nets.

Despite a minor ankle injury he seemingly picked up Monday against the Raptors, Murray produced a season-high 24 points and saw his usual workload. The veteran point guard is still struggling to find his offense, shooting just 37.3 percent from the floor and 33.3 percent from three-point range through four games, but his usage gives him a high fantasy floor even when he's not locked in with his shot.

Coach Michael Malone said Murray (ankle) will play without a minutes restriction in Tuesday's game against the Nets, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports.

Murray will give it a go Tuesday despite dealing with a right ankle sprain. The 27-year-old is averaging 17.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.7 steals across 38.3 minutes per game. However, the point guard has struggled from the field, and he is shooting only 35.4 percent from the floor.

Murray is probable for Tuesday's game against the Nets with a right ankle sprain.

This is Murray's first appearance on the injury report so far this regular season, though it appears to be a minor issue. He's had a tough start to the campaign by his standards, as he's averaging 17.0 points on 36.2 percent shooting from the field.

Murray provided 17 points (6-20 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 40 minutes during Monday's 127-125 overtime victory over the Raptors.

Murray has struggled with his shot, but he remains valuable in fantasy due to his solid contributions in peripheral categories. This time, he finished just one rebound and three dimes away from recording what would've been his first triple-double of the season. Murray can get by with these performances occasionally, but he needs to start shooting the ball better, as he's an integral part of the Nuggets' offensive plan. Through three games, the star floor general is shooting just 35.4 percent from the field.

Murray finished with 22 points (7-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, five assists and two steals across 37 minutes in Saturday's 109-104 loss to the Clippers.

Murray was far more efficient than in the season opener Thursday, when he made just four of his 14 shots in a 102-87 loss to the Thunder. This 22-point outing is more in line with what fantasy managers should expect out of Murray on a regular basis, and the Nuggets will need their star floor general to be at his best in future games to overcome their 0-2 start.

Murray posted 12 points (4-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals across 38 minutes during Thursday's 102-87 loss to the Thunder.

Murray struggled in the club's regular-season opener while taking a backseat to Christian Braun, who scored 16 points while shooting 53.3 percent from the floor. Murray is coming off a career-best year, during which he averaged 21.2 points, 6.5 assists, 4.1 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 31.5 minutes per game in 59 regular-season outings. The 27-year-old is going to be a key factor for the Nuggets in their quest for another championship, and he will need to shake off the rust as Denver gets ready to face off against the Clippers on Saturday.

Murray scored 25 points (6-13 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 8-8 Ft) while adding five assists, two steals and two blocks in 29 minutes during Thursday's 132-126 preseason win over the Timberwolves.

The Nuggets used their full starting lineup Thursday, and Murray led the group in scoring, although Julian Strawther erupted for 33 off the bench for Denver. Murray hasn't played more than 65 games in a regular season since 2018-19, and staying healthy will be the most important goal in 2024-25 for the 27-year-old point guard. He's remained productive when he's been on the court however, averaging at least 20.0 points, 4.0 assists, 4.0 boards, 2.5 threes and 1.0 steals in three straight seasons.

Murray (knee) will be available for Thursday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray didn't play in Tuesday's game against the Thunder, but the star guard will feature in the team's final tune-up before the start of the regular season. The Nuggets have not announced their starting lineup yet, but Murray is highly likely to be included in it alongside the usual suspects -- Nikola Jokic, Aaron Gordon, Michael Porter, and Christian Braun.

Coach Michael Malone said Murray (knee) will not play in Tuesday's preseason game versus the Thunder, Nuggets beat writer Matt Brooks reports.

Murray tweaked his knee during Sunday's loss to Phoenix, though his absence is likely just a precautionary measure ahead of the regular season. The 27-year-old's final chance to suit up during the preseason will come Thursday versus the Timberwolves.

Murray tweaked his knee during Sunday's 118-114 preseason loss to Phoenix, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports. He finished with two points (1-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one steal in 19 minutes.

Murray told coach Michael Malone that his knee felt "funny" in warmups, and the Nuggets ended up pulling him early from the game while the rest of the starters played close to their usual minutes. Given Murray's recent struggles with his knee, this is definitely cause for concern so close to Opening Night. As far his conditioning goes, Murray believes his stamina levels are up to par. As it stands, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Murray being held out of Tuesday's preseason contest against the Thunder.

Murray recorded three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), a rebound, two assists and two steals across 16 minutes in Friday's 107-103 preseason loss to the Celtics.

Head coach Mike Malone had already declared Murray would be among the starters who would have a reduced workload during Friday's preseason opener, so it wasn't surprising to see him log 16 minutes, as no starter reached the 20-minute mark. That said, Murray looked rusty and struggled to make an impact on both ends of the court. Murray should continue to ramp up in the preseason, and fantasy managers shouldn't have any reason to worry about him ahead of the 2024-25 regular season.

Coach Mike Malone said Murray is expected to play limited minutes during Friday's preseason opener against the Celtics, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray will likely continue to play limited minutes throughout the preseason as Denver wishes to give increased playing time to its bench units. However, Murray should return to a full workload once the regular season rolls around.

Murray and the Nuggets have come to terms on a four-year, $209 million extension, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Murray will now be under contract with the Nuggets through the 2029 season. The star shooting guard tied a career-high 21.2 points per game last season, while also posting a career best 6.5 assists across 59 games. He will enter his ninth season as the Nuggets' No. 2 option behind Nikola Jokic.

Murray (rest) will play in Sunday's exhibition game against Puerto Rico, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Murray sat out Friday's exhibition versus France due to rest purposes but will return to Canada's starting lineup Sunday. The Nuggets' point guard will be one of several NBA players suiting up for Canada during the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Murray won't play in Friday's exhibition game against France due to rest purposes.

It doesn't appear that Murray has suffered any injury, as his absence from Friday's exhibition is being described as a precaution. His next chance to suit up for the Canadian national team is against Puerto Rico on Sunday for another exhibition match.

Murray provided 35 points (13-27 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and three assists over 43 minutes during Sunday's 98-90 loss to Minnesota in Game 7 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

Murray did everything he could to get the Nuggets over the line but ultimately came up short. He and Nikola Jokic scored 69 of the Nuggets 90 points, highlighting just how unimpactful their bench was. While it was a disappointing end for Murray, his production this year was right in line with what fantasy managers expected coming into the season. Given they will likely be contending again next season, there is no reason to think anything changes moving forward.

Murray (calf) will play in Sunday's Game 7 against the Timberwolves.

Murray has been dealing with a left calf strain throughout the entire series, but he will shed another questionable tag and suit up Sunday. Murray has struggled to produce against Minnesota's stellar defense, but he will likely be called upon early and often in this win-or-go-home scenario.

Murray is questionable to play in Sunday's Game 7 against the Timberwolves due to a left calf strain.

Murray has been listed as questionable throughout the entire series, but that's not surprising, as the star point guard has been dealing with a left calf strain since the end of Denver's first-round series against the Lakers. The Nuggets need Murray to be at his best if they want to win Sunday, as he's coming off a woeful showing in the Game 6 loss on Thursday, scoring 10 points while shooting 4-for-18 from the field.

Murray recorded 10 points (4-18 FG, 2-7 3Pt), two rebounds, five assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Thursday's 115-70 loss to Minnesota in Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

Murray has been the catalyst of the Nuggets offense this series, and he struggled massively Thursday, though to be fair, the entire team looked overmatched from start to finish. There's no doubt the offense runs through Nikola Jokic, but it's also not a secret that Denver tends to struggle heavily when Murray is not at his best, and that has been the case in each of the three losses the Nuggets have suffered in this series. Murray will aim to bounce back in Sunday's Game 7, as Denver needs him at his best to avoid a monumental upset and keep the title defense alive.

Murray (calf) is available for Thursday's Game 6 against Minnesota.

Murray has been playing through questionable tags for the duration of this series, so this news isn't a surprise. There's no word of any restrictions ahead of tipoff.

Murray is questionable for Thursday's Game 6 against the Timberwolves due to a left calf strain.

After losing the first two games of the series, the Nuggets have won three straight and are on the verge of advancing to the Western Conference Finals for a second consecutive campaign. Murray scored at least 20 points in all five games against the Lakers during the opening-round series but has reached that mark only once versus Minnesota.

Murray (calf) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 against Minnesota.

Questionable tags have been par for the course for Murray in this series, but he continues to push through his calf strain. He's not expected to have any restrictions Tuesday evening.

Murray is questionable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Timberwolves due to a left calf strain.

After a tumultuous Game 2, Murray and the Nuggets rebounded for back-to-back wins in Minnesota to even the series. While the calf injury remains a storyline for the point guard, Murray hasn't looked bothered by the issue over the last two games, as he's averaged 21.5 points, 6.5 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 steals in 38.5 minutes. Murray is likely more probable than questionable for Game 5, but his official availability will likely come down to a game-time decision.

Murray provided 19 points (8-17 FG, 3-7 3Pt), five rebounds, eight assists and two steals over 39 minutes during Sunday's 115-107 win over Minnesota in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

Murray drained a half-court buzzer-beater to end the first half and finished just two assists shy of posting what would've been his first double-double of the series. The shooting woes remain for Murray, however, as he's hitting just 40 percent of his field goals so far in the four games against Minnesota, but he seems to be trending in the right direction after scoring 19 or more points in his last two contests.

Murray (calf) will play in Sunday's Game 4 against Minnesota.

Murray has been dealing with a calf injury throughout the series and is yet to miss a game, so it isn't surprising to see him shed another questionable tag. After struggling in the first two games of the series, Murray bounced back in Game 3 with a 24-point outing on solid efficiency, and he will look to carry that momentum over to Sunday's matchup.

Murray (calf) is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against Minnesota.

Murray has been playing through questionable tags for the entirety of the series so far, so fantasy managers can expect the same to continue Sunday. Murray looked sharp in Friday's Game 3, producing 24 points (11-21 FG, 2-5 3Pt), five assists, four rebounds and three steals over 38 minutes.

Murray finished with 24 points (11-21 FG, 2-5 3Pt), five assist, four rebounds and three steals over 38 minutes in Friday's 117-90 win over the Timberwolves in the Western Conference Semifinals.

Murray came out of the gates with a sense of urgency and a prove-it mentality in Friday's much-needed with for Denver, posting a team-high-tying scoring total and leading all players in the contest in shots made while tallying a team-high-tying pair of steals in a balanced outing. Murray, who notched his only single-digit game of the postseason in Game 2, bounced back with a big performance for the Nuggets in order to get back into the series against the Timberwolves. Murray has surpassed the 20-point mark in six of his eight playoff contests thus far.

Murray (calf) is available for Friday's Game 3 against Minnesota.

Murray has been a regular on the injury report since the end of Denver's first-round series against the Lakers, but he continues to push through it. Through the first two games against Minnesota, Murray has really struggled, hitting a combined 9-of-32 from the field.

Murray (calf) is listed as questionable for Friday's Game 3 against Minnesota.

Murray has been dealing with a left calf strain since the end of Denver's first-round series against Denver. However, Murray has yet to miss a game due to it and is averaging 35.0 minutes per contest across the first two games of the Nuggets' series against the Timberwolves.

The NBA announced Tuesday that Murray will be fined $100,000 but won't be suspended after throwing a heat pad and towel on the court during Monday's Game 2 loss to Minnesota, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Murray tallied just eight points in Monday's 106-80 loss to the Timberwolves, and threw a heat pad and towel on the court in frustration. However, the star guard will be available for Game 3 on Friday, as Denver will travel to Minnesota looking to avoid a 3-0 deficit.

Murray finished with eight points (3-18 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 36 minutes during Monday's 106-80 loss to Minnesota in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

Murray has struggled badly in the postseason when it comes to his efficiency despite the fact he had some good moments in the series against the Lakers. However, Monday's game was a new low for him, as he missed 15 of his 18 shots and didn't reach the 10-point plateau for the first time since Feb. 29. Murray needs to bounce back if the Nuggets want to have a shot at turning things around, as he's averaging 12.5 points per game while shooting just 28.1 percent from the floor in his first two appearances in the series.

Murray (calf) will play in Monday's Game 2 against the Timberwolves, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray is still battling a nagging calf injury that he picked up during Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs against the Lakers, but it won't force him to miss Monday's clash. He was held in check during Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals, however, the point guard has shown that he can make clutch shots when his team needs it most, even if he's not at 100 percent.

Murray is questionable for Monday's Game 2 against the Timberwolves due to a left calf strain.

Murray continues to play through the calf issue but wasn't at his best during Sunday's Game 1 loss, as he posted only 17 points and four assists. Despite not being 100 percent, he averaged 23.6 points, 7.2 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 39.8 minutes during the opening-round series against the Lakers, including two game-winning shots. Murray is likely more probable than questionable, but his official availability will be a game-time decision.

Murray racked up 17 points (6-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound and four assists over 34 minutes during Saturday's 106-99 loss to Minnesota in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

Murray wasn't as strong as we've seen him in the past in Friday's contest, but still managed to end three points shy of the 20-point mark while ending as one of three Nuggets with 15 or more points in a losing effort. It will be key to see how Murray, who has been dealing with calf discomfort as of late, is able to perform throughout the semifinals and if his injury limits him to any extend against a talented Timberwolves squad.

Murray (calf) will play in Game 1 against the Timberwolves on Saturday, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray went through his usual warmup for Game 1 and completed it with no setbacks, so the star floor general will be available to handle his regular workload in the series opener against Minnesota. Murray was stellar in the first round against the Lakers, hitting two game-winning shots and averaging 23.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game.

Denver coach Michael Malone said he expects Murray (calf) to play in Saturday's Game 1 versus Minnesota, but he remains a game-time call, Brendan Vogt of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray will go through his usual warmup for Game 1, and if he gets through it without any setbacks, he should be all set to take the court. Murray was terrific in the previous round against the Lakers, posting 23.6 points and 7.2 assists per game.

Murray (calf) is listed as questionable for Saturday's Game 1 against the Timberwolves.

Murray has been in and out of Denver's practices this week but was able to play in all five of Denver's first-round games against the Lakers. Murray averaged 39.8 minutes per contest against Los Angeles and his calf is feeling even better heading into Saturday's matchup, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray posted 32 points (13-28 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 41 minutes during Monday's 108-106 win over the Lakers in Game 5 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Murray's status heading into Monday's matchup was in doubt due to a calf injury, but he showed zero signs of discomfort, leading his squad in scoring and tacking on the game-winning bucket to send Denver to the next round. Monday marked his best scoring performance of the opening round after putting up 22 points in back-to-back showings heading into Game 5.

Murray (calf) will play in Monday's Game 5 against the Lakers.

Murray was spotted going through a brief, five-minute workout before the game with a wrap on his injured calf, and he's since been cleared to suit up. He's put up 20 or more points in the first four games of the series but is knocking down only 20.8 percent of his tries from three over this stretch.

Murray (calf) is still listed as questionable for Monday's Game 5 against the Lakers, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray will attempt to go through his pregame routine before a decision on his availability is made. "Sometimes I have to be the adult in the room," said head coach Michael Malone. "We'll see how he feels during his pregame routine." Malone went on to state that the team needs to be responsible and take the "bigger picture" approach. If Murray can help the team win and not put himself at risk of a more significant injury, playing will be on the table, per Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette.

Murray is questionable for Monday's Game 5 against the Lakers due to a left calf strain.

Murray played 39 minutes during Saturday's Game 4 loss and posted 22 points (9-23 FG), six rebounds and five assists. However, he appears to have suffered a calf injury during the contest as well. While the Nuggets won the first three matchups of the series, the Lakers have led for the majority of every game so far. Reggie Jackson (ankle) is probable for Game 5 and would presumably start at point guard if Murray is ruled out.

Murray racked up 22 points (9-23 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one block over 39 minutes during Saturday's 119-108 loss to the Lakers in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Murray's shooting woes continued in Game 4, as he finished with nine or fewer shots made while attempting 20-plus for the fourth consecutive contest. His numbers on the surface look good, as Murray is averaging 21.5 points per game while the Nuggets are 3-1 up in the series, but the fact that he's shooting a woeful 38 percent from the field. The Nuggets need him to be more efficient if they want to close the series out in Game 5 on Monday.

Murray contributed 22 points (8-21 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and one block in 41 minutes during Thursday's 112-105 win over the Lakers in Game 3 of the Western Conference's first round.

Murray didn't have his best shooting performance after needing 21 shots to score 22 points, but he compensated for the lack of efficiency with his nine assists. He's reached the 20-point mark in the first three contests of the series against the Lakers, but the lack of efficiency has been a problem since he's making just 37.7 percent of his field goals so far.

Murray ended Monday's 101-99 victory over the Lakers in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals with 20 points (9-24 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two blocks across 39 minutes.

Even though Nikola Jokic stole the show with a triple-double, it was Murray who ended up being the hero for the Nuggets, as his buzzer-beating fadeaway jumper gave Denver a massive win despite the team trailing by as much as 20 points at one point. Murray has scored at least 20 points in each of his last six appearances dating back to the regular season, and the star floor general should handle a prominent role in Game 3 on Thursday in Los Angeles.

Murray supplied 22 points (9-24 FG, 4-9 3Pt), six rebounds, 10 assists and one block over 39 minutes during Saturday's 114-103 victory over the Lakers in Game 1 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

Even though Nikola Jokic led the Nuggets in scoring, Murray was the main reason why the Nuggets put up a fight when things got complicated. The star floor general came through when Denver needed him the most in the first half, and he made a couple of plays that kept the Nuggets in the game when the Lakers were threatening to pull away for good. Murray should continue to have a pivotal role, both as a scorer and playmaker, in Game 2 of the series scheduled for Monday.

Murray (knee) is active for Sunday's regular-season finale against Memphis.

Murray will suit up for a fifth consecutive contest, and he has boomed to the tune of 27.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 4.7 assists across his last three appearances. Denver is in a three-way tie for the top seed in the Western Conference, so a win is important Sunday, although Murray operating in a limited workload remains possible.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies.

Murray and the rest of Denver's starters are listed as questionable, but it'd be surprising if they all rested, given the Nuggets are vying for the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference. Murray has averaged 24.8 points, 5.0 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks over his last four appearances, including a 35-point explosion during Friday's loss to the Spurs.

Murray logged 35 points (14-26 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Friday's 121-120 loss to the Spurs.

Murray's efficient shooting helped him record a team-high 35 points during Friday's loss to the Spurs. After missing seven games with a knee injury, the star guard appears to be ramping up his workload. In Denver's four contests since returning to action, Murray is averaging 24.8 points, 5.0 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks in 26.0 minutes.

Murray (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Spurs.

Murray is still a little banged up, but he'll appear in his fourth straight game. The Nuggets could monitor his minutes with the playoffs looming.

Murray (knee) is probable for Friday's game against the Spurs.

Murray has appeared in each of the last three matchups, but he continues to deal with a knee issue late in the regular season. However, it appears likely that he'll be able to suit up once again Friday.

Murray chipped in 20 points (8-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt), four rebounds and six assists in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 116-107 victory over Minnesota.

Although the Nuggets rode on Nikola Jokic's coat tails in the potential Conference Final preview, Murray played through a pesky knee injury and provided a solid result. Murray's knee kept him out of action for seven games, but he's averaged a balanced 21.3 points, 5.3 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.7 blocked shots and 1.3 steals since his return to the floor.

Murray (knee) will play in Wednesday's game against Minnesota, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

Murray was initially handed a questionable tag with a right knee contusion he's been battling since late March, but he'll play through the issue for a third straight time. Despite being available, Murray has seen 27 minutes and 21 minutes in his last two and could continue to have his minutes monitored.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

Murray has appeared in back-to-back contests since missing a seven-game stretch to end March, but he may take a seat during the second half of a back-to-back set after posting 28 points (11-20 FG), four assists, four steals and four blocks in 27 minutes during Tuesday's win over Utah. Aaron Gordon (foot) is also questionable, while Nikola Jokic (hip), Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (shoulder) and and Michael Porter (knee) are all probable.

Murray finished Tuesday's 111-95 win over the Jazz with 28 points (11-20 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds, four assists, four blocks and four steals in 27 minutes.

The 28 points were a game high, tying Nikola Jokic. Murray didn't quite see his usual workload in terms of minutes but did get his normal shot volume, and he seems fully recovered from the knee issue that cost him seven games in late March and early April. The 27-year-old guard might have his court time limited again Wednesday on the second night of a back-to-back set however, as the Nuggets host the Timberwolves.

Murray (knee) will start Tuesday's game against the Jazz.

Despite having the green light to suit up, coach Michael Malone mentioned that Murray won't see a lot of minutes Tuesday night. This is the front end of a back-to-back set and Murray recently returned from a lengthy absence, so it's not a huge surprise to hear this.

Murray (right knee inflammation) is probable for Tuesday's game versus Utah.

Murray is trending in the right direction to suit up for his second consecutive game after a seven-game absence due to knee inflammation. If he is ultimately able to take the court, he will face an exploitable Utah backcourt that will be lacking defensive ace Kris Dunn (foot).

Murray accumulated 16 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one block over 21 minutes during Saturday's 142-110 victory over the Hawks.

Although Murray's production wasn't needed in the blowout, his return to the starting lineup gave the Nuggets a significant morale boost. Improvements were noticeable all over the box score, and the team's floor general gets a lot of the credit. The team went 3-4 without Murray in the lineup, and his return will help immensely as they try to stay ahead of Minnesota and Oklahoma City.

Murray (knee) is available to face the Hawks on Saturday, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

Murray was initially listed as questionable due to right knee inflammation, but the star floor general will take the court and should handle his regular workload in this one. This likely means Reggie Jackson (illness) will head back to a bench role.

Murray (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Hawks.

Murray is in danger of missing his eighth straight contest Saturday due to right knee inflammation. If Murray is ruled out yet again, Reggie Jackson should remain in the starting lineup.

Murray (knee) won't play Thursday against the Clippers, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.

This will be the seventh game in a row on the sidelines for Murray, although his recent questionable tags suggests that he remains day-to-day. The Nuggets may be erring on the side of caution with the playoffs looming. Murray's next chance to play comes Saturday against Atlanta.

Murray (knee) is being listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Clippers.

Murray has been listed as "questionable" the past six games, but he's yet to play. We may get another update following Thursday's shootaround, but if Murray is forced to miss another game, Reggie Jackson will likely be looking at another start.

Murray (knee) will not play Tuesday against the Spurs, Adam Mares of DenverStiffs.com reports.

This will be the sixth straight absence for Murray, though he's been carrying questionable tags for the last two games which suggests he's getting closer. Murray's next chance to play comes Thursday against the Clippers.

Murray (knee) is questionable to play Tuesday against the Spurs.

Murray missed Sunday's 130-101 win over the Cavaliers, and while the questionable tag might be a step in the right direction, it's worth noting the Nuggets are not likely to take any risks with their star point guard. If Murray can't go Tuesday, then Reggie Jackson would be in line to make another start after delivering 19 points (6-10 FG, 5-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and three assists over 23 minutes during Sunday's win.

Murray (knee) will not play Sunday versus Cleveland.

Murray's next opportunity to take the court comes Tuesday versus San Antonio. Nikola Jokic (hip/wrist) has been cleared for action Sunday, leaving Murray as the Nuggets' lone absence from the core rotation. Reggie Jackson is averaging 16.0 points and 5.7 assists in 29.6 minutes across 20 games without Murray this season.

Coach Michael Malone said that Murray (knee) is "very, very doubtful" to play in Sunday's game against Cleveland, Brendan Vogt of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray's looming absence would likely thrust Reggie Jackson into a starting role, while Justin Holiday would likely see an uptick in minute share as well. If officially ruled out, Sunday would represent Murray's fifth consecutive absence due to right knee inflammation.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.

Murray has missed the past four games for Denver, but coach Michael Malone said on Friday that he's optimistic about his chances of returning to the floor against Cleveland. If that happens, look for Reggie Jackson to head back to the bench with Christian Braun losing some fantasy appeal as well.

Murray (knee) will not play in Friday's tilt agianst the Timberwolves.

Murray's absence will mark his fourth straight game missed, as he continues to recover from right knee inflammation. As a result, Reggie Jackson will presumably get another start, while Collin Gillespie could see some extra minutes. The next opportunity for Murray to suit up will come Sunday against the Cavaliers.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Timberwolves, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

Murray has missed three straight games due to right knee inflammation and will likely be a game-time decision Friday. If the starting point remains sidelined, Reggie Jackson should draw another start, while Collin Gillespie sees increased playing time off the bench.

Murray (ankle) will not play in Wednesday's game against the Suns, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Murray was considered questionable heading into the evening, and it looks like the Nuggets will err on the side of caution. In his absence, Reggie Jackson figures to be the prime beneficiary, while Collin Gillespie could also see some more run than usual. The next opportunity for Murray to suit up will come Friday against the Timberwolves.

Murray (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Suns.

Murray has missed the last two games due to a sprained left ankle, and it's unclear whether he'll return to action Wednesday. If he remains sidelined, Reggie Jackson will likely draw another start for the Nuggets.

Murray (ankle) won't play Monday against the Grizzlies, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray will miss his second straight contest due to a left ankle sprain. Reggie Jackson is in line for another start at point guard in Murray's absence.

Murray (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

Murray missed Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a left ankle sprain that has his status for Monday in question. Nikola Jokic (back, hip) is also questionable, so the Nuggets could need to rely on Michael Porter, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Reggie Jackson more than usual.

Murray (ankle) is out for Saturday's game versus the Trail Blazers.

Murray has been downgraded from questionable to out Saturday due to a left ankle injury he suffered against the Knicks. Reggie Jackson will likely start in his absence. Murray's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Memphis.

Murray (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Murray tweaked his left ankle at the end of Thursday's win over the Knicks and is in danger of missing his first game since Feb. 23. Nikola Jokic (back/hip) is also questionable, so the Nuggets may need Michael Porter, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Reggie Jackson to handle increased usage.

Murray closed Thursday's 113-100 victory over New York with 23 points (9-20 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals over 34 minutes.

Murray has surpassed the 20-point mark in just two of his last five appearances. While this is likely temporary, he's been operating as Denver's third-best offensive option behind Nikola Jokic and a red-hot Michael Porter. Even though he's now holding a somewhat "lesser" role in recent weeks, Murray remains a key contributor for the Nuggets on the offensive end of the court, and a player who's capable of taking over at any given contest, starting with a very favorable matchup against the Trail Blazers on Saturday.

Murray ended with 18 points (6-14 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, 11 assists and two steals over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 115-112 victory over the Timberwolves.

Murray registered double-digit assists after missing that milestone for three consecutive games. Murray's dime-dropping ability is often the difference-maker in his fantasy totals, as his shot volume is usually very consistent. The guard has enjoyed a solid run recently, averaging 19.2 points, 8.6 assists, 5.0 rebounds and 1.6 steals over the past five games.

Murray closed with 23 points (7-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal in 36 minutes during Sunday's 107-105 loss to the Mavericks.

Murray has been on an absolute tear this month, reaching the 15-point mark in all but one of his eight appearances and posting three double-doubles in that span. Murray is averaging 23.3 points and 8.4 assists per game since the beginning of March, and the star floor general seems to be gearing up to be at his best once the regular season ends.

Murray amassed 15 points (6-16 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, eight assists and four steals over 34 minutes during Friday's 117-106 win over the Spurs.

Murray didn't have his best shooting performance and needed 16 shots to record 15 points. However, the star floor general still salvaged his fantasy line by ending two assists away from recording a triple-double. Murray is averaging 22.8 points, 7.2 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game over his last 10 appearances.

Murray totaled 26 points (11-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-5 FT), five rebounds, 12 assists and two blocks over 39 minutes during Monday's 125-119 victory over the Raptors.

The 27-year-old guard scored 12 of his points in the fourth quarter, helping Denver rally from a 17-point halftime deficit. The double-double was Murray's ninth of the season, with five of them coming since the beginning of February, and over 14 games during that stretch he's averaging 21.1 points, 7.2 assists, 4.5 boards, 2.6 threes and 1.0 steals.

Murray posted 37 points (13-21 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 5-7 FT), seven assists, three rebounds and two steals over 37 minutes in Saturday's 142-121 win over Utah.

Murray led all players in Saturday's contest in scoring and threes made while ending three assists shy of a double-double and swiping a team-high-tying pair of steals in a high-scoring victory. Murray matched a season-high in scoring, now having connected on six or more threes in two outings.

Murray accumulated 19 points (7-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Thursday's 115-109 win over Boston.

Murray put forth a well-balanced outing in Thursday's victory, ending one point shy of the 20-point mark and two assists short of a double-double to go along with a half-dozen rebounds. Murray has tallied at least 15 points, eight assists and five boards in seven games this year, including in three straight contests.

Murray logged 28 points (12-25 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 42 minutes during Tuesday's 117-107 overtime loss to the Suns.

Murray put together a second excellent game after throwing up a dud against Miami a week ago. Recording decent assist totals is an occasional problem for Murray alongside Nikola Jokic's contribution in the category, but he's dropped 20 dimes over the past two games.

Murray ended Saturday's 124-114 victory over the Lakers with 24 points (11-23 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, 11 assists and one steal across 38 minutes.

Murray took the court despite dealing with an ankle injury, handing out a team-high assist total while hauling in a half-dozen rebounds and ending as one of three Nuggets with 20 or more points in a double-double outing. Murray has recorded a double-double in nine games this season, posting at least 20 points, 10 assists and five rebounds in three contests.

Murray (ankle) is available to play in Saturday's game versus the Lakers, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray was officially considered questionable after tweaking his ankle Thursday night, but he made it through his usual warmups without any setbacks. While there's no mention of any restrictions, Denver will likely be monitoring him closely throughout the game.

Murray (ankle) is considered questionable for Saturday's matchup with the Lakers, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray exited Thursday's game against the Heat with a right ankle sprain. His status Saturday will likely depend on how he is feeling after testing things out during pregame warmups. Reggie Jackson would be the likely candidate to replace him at point guard should Murray ultimately not get the green light.

Murray will not return to Thursday's game versus Miami due to a right ankle sprain, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports. He finished with six points (2-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three assists and one rebound in 14 minutes.

The Nuggets initially labelled Murray as questionable to return when he left right before halftime, but he had a pretty significant limp and didn't attempt to warm up for the second half. Reggie Jackson started the second half and would likely start Saturday's game versus the Lakers if Murray misses additional time.

Murray tweaked his right ankle during Thursday's game versus the Heat and went back to the locker room, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray landed on Aaron Gordon's foot a few minutes before halftime and rolled his ankle pretty good, but he was able to go to the back under his own power. If he's unable to return, the Nuggets will likely turn to Reggie Jackson to pick up the ball-handling duties.

Murray contributed 32 points (13-15 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 117-96 win over the Kings.

Murray was on fire throughout the victory, making 13 of 15 field-goal attempts, including going 5-for-6 from three-point range. He reached the 30-point mark for the first time in February and found time to add three assists as well. Murray has now recorded 30 or more points six times overall this season.

Murray finished Sunday's 119-103 win over Golden State with 27 points (9-16 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block in 36 minutes.

After missing Friday's tilt in Portland due to shin splints, Murray appeared to be pretty healthy in Golden State on Sunday, topping 20 points for the first time since Feb. 8. The 27-year-old guard posted tepid numbers in his games on either side of the All-Star break due to the lower-body issue, but he's still drained multiple three-pointers in seven of his last 10 contests, averaging 19.7 points, 6.1 assists, 4.0 boards, 2.6 threes, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks over that stretch while shooting 42.6 percent from beyond the arc.

Murray (shins) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Murray sat out Friday's game against the Trail Blazers due to shin splints in both legs but has been cleared to return a few days later. He's averaged 16.6 points, 6.4 assists and 3.8 rebounds in 29.0 minutes per game over his last five appearances, but it's unclear whether he'll face limitations Sunday.

Murray (shins) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.

Murray has been battling shin splints in both legs, and coach Michael Malone has mentioned that he'll need to monitor his reps at practices and morning shootarounds to manage them. Murray was unable to play Friday against Portland, so Reggie Jackson started in his absence and played 22 minutes.

Murray has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers due to bilateral tibia inflammation.

Murray missed the Nuggets' final game before the All-Star break due to his tibia injury and will be unavailable for the second half of a back-to-back set Friday. Reggie Jackson, Christian Braun and Justin Holiday are candidates to see increased run against Portland.

Murray notched 18 points (9-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and three steals across 31 minutes during Thursday's 130-110 victory over the Wizards.

Murray finished just two assists away from posting a double-double, but the star point guard also stuffed the stat sheet admirably. Murray also bounced back after putting up subpar numbers in his previous two appearances before the All-Star break. Still, he should experience an uptick in his numbers in the coming weeks as the Nuggets aim to become one of the first teams in the Western Conference to secure a playoff berth. Murray is averaging 16.0 points, 7.0 assists and 4.7 rebounds per game since the beginning of February.

Murray (leg) will start against the Wizards on Thursday, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray was carrying a probable tag prior to this update, but he had plenty of time to heal up during the All-Star break. Reggie Jackson will head back to the bench as a result.

Murray (lower leg) is listed as probable on the injury report for Thursday's game versus the Wizards.

Barring any setbacks, Murray should be able to suit up Thursday after missing Denver's last outing before the All-Star break due to bilateral tibia inflammation. Murray has somewhat struggled since the beginning of February, shooting 39.0 percent from the field in his last five appearances.

Murray (lower leg) practiced Tuesday and is available for Thursday's game versus the Wizards, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray missed Denver's previous game against Sacramento due to a bilateral tibia inflammation but is set to play Thursday. The star point guard should reclaim his starting job from Reggie Jackson.

Murray (lower leg) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Kings, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray has been downgraded from questionable to out Wednesday due to bilateral tibia inflammation, as expected. Reggie Jackson will likely receive increased playing time in his absence. Murray's next chance to suit up will come after the All-Star Break on Feb. 22 against Washington.

Murray (tibias) is not expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Kings, Chris Dempsey of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray left Monday's game against the Bucks after 18 minutes and wasn't able to return. Nuggets coach Michael Malone said Murray will get treatment on Tuesday and that a final decision will be made shortly after, but it sounds like he wants to exercise caution with the All-Star break looming. With Murray and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) both doubtful, the Nuggets could lean on Christian Braun, Reggie Jackson and Peyton Watson.

Murray (tibias) didn't return for the second half of Monday's 112-95 loss to the Bucks and finished with three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and two rebounds in 18 minutes.

Murray struggled mightily in the first half of the contest before the Nuggets listed him questionable to return to the game in advance of the third quarter due to bilateral tibia inflammation. Reggie Jackson ultimately took the floor with the Nuggets' starters to begin the second half, while Murray received the rest of the night off. He'll have Tuesday's off day to recover from the injury before the Nuggets decide whether or not he'll be available for their final game before the All-Star break Wednesday versus the Kings.

Murray is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Bucks due to bilateral tibia inflammation, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray has battled a few lower-body injuries earlier this month, so it's no secret that he's been banged up of late. Reggie Jackson and Collin Gillespie could see more action if Murray is ultimately shut down for the night.

Murray (leg) will play in Friday's game against the Kings.

Murray will shed his probable tag and continues to be remarkably durable. He hasn't missed a game since mid-December and there's no word of any restrictions ahead of tipoff.

Murray is probable for Friday's game against the Kings due to bilateral tibia inflammation.

Murray hasn't missed a game since mid-December, and he'll likely be able to suit up Friday despite his injury. He's topped 20 points in four of his last six appearances, averaging 22.8 points, 7.8 assists and 4.8 rebounds in 35.8 minutes per game.

Murray produced 29 points (12-25 FG, 5-9 3Pt), seven rebounds, 11 assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Thursday's 114-106 victory over the Lakers.

The 26-year-old guard led the Nuggets in scoring as he produced his third straight double-double and seventh of the season. Murray's even been making a surprising impact at the defensive end of the court of late -- he's recorded at least two steals plus blocks in six straight games, averaging 22.8 points, 7.8 assists, 4.8 boards, 3.3 threes, 1.2 blocks and 1.0 steals over that stretch while shooting 44.4 percent from beyond the arc.

Murray ended Friday's 120-108 win over the Trail Blazers with 13 points (5-21 FG, 3-15 3Pt), nine rebounds, 10 assists and two blocks over 33 minutes.

One more rebound from Murray would have given the Nuggets teo triple-double performances against the Nuggets, as Nikola Jokic hit the mark with a massive 27/22/12 line. Murray has played through the week with minor concussion symptoms, and while his conversion rate has taken a tumble, his shot volume is high enough for him to come away with a solid scoring total. His shooting was particularly bad beyond the arc in Friday's game, making only three of 15 attempts from long range.

Murray (knee) will play in Friday's game against Portland.

No surprise here, as Murray was previously considered probable with a minor contusion. There's no word of any restrictions ahead of tipoff. Murray averaged 23.6 points, 6.7 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 2.2 three-pointers in January.

Murray is listed as probable for Friday's game versus the Trail Blazers due to a left knee contusion.

Murray certainly wasn't alone in his shooting struggles -- Denver shot 40.5 percent as a team, including 19.2 percent from three-point range -- but the point guard's poor line carries more weight given that he's Denver's second-most rostered player in fantasy. Murray did at least manage a team-leading seven assists, and he's notched exactly that many dimes in each of his past three contests. However, Thursday was the first time Murray finished with single-digit scoring since he recorded nine points against the Thunder on Dec. 29.

Murray was three rebounds and one assist away from notching his second career triple-double. He's been uncharacteristically cold from three-point range lately, and he's shooting 25.9 percent from beyond the arc over his last four games. He'll look to heat up Sunday against the Pistons.

Murray ended Thursday's 130-127 win over the Warriors with 25 points (8-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 8-9 FT), two rebounds, six assists and two steals over 32 minutes.

Murray closed Friday's 122-117 win over Brooklyn with 32 points (11-19 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and two blocks in 34 minutes.

He just nipped Nikola Jokic's 31 points for the team lead, as Murray produced a new season-best scoring effort.

There are no real surprises here, as Murray was listed as probable. Hence, the expectation was for him to be available after playing Thursday in a blowout win over Brooklyn, where he only played 22 minutes.

Murray is probable for Saturday's game against the Thunder due to bilateral ankle sprains.

Murray missed Tuesday's win over the Bulls due to the injury but returned Thursday, posting 16 points (7-15 FG) in 22 minutes during a blowout win over Brooklyn.

Murray (ankle) will not play Tuesday versus the Bulls, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray (ankles) is listed as doubtful to play Tuesday against Chicago, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful for the second half of Denver's back-to-back Tuesday. Reggie Jackson would likely move into the starting lineup if Murray is unable to suit up.

Murray (ankle) is questionable to play Tuesday against Chicago.

Murray's status for the second game of Denver's back-to-back set Tuesday is undetermined, but he logged a full workload in Monday's win over Atlanta, delivering 29 points in 29 minutes. Murray is tending to soreness in both ankles, and although he didn't suffer any aggravation in Monday's contest, Denver could opt to be cautious in ramping up the 26-year-old.

Murray contributed 29 points (12-15 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Monday's 129-122 victory over Atlanta.

The Nuggets had to work harder than expected down the stretch to close out the win over the Hawks, and Murray played a prominent role in the victory -- he led the team in scoring and finished just one rebound shy of posting his third double-double of the campaign. The star point guard has endured a tough time due to several injuries and has logged just seven games since the start of November, but he's excellent when available. As long as he's healthy, he should play a prominent role on offense for the Nuggets operating as the second-best option behind Nikola Jokic.

Murray (ankle) is active for Monday's game against Atlanta.

Murray is set to make his third straight start while Denver looks to snap a three-game losing streak Monday. Reggie Jackson and Christian Braun will combine to provide guard play in the second unit against an Atlanta squad ranking 25th in defensive rating.

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.

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 the back-to-back games after logging only 16 minutes in his return, and we may see some additional instances where Murray takes a seat for injury management.

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.

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.

Friday against Houston would mark Murray's next opportunity to take the court if he can't suit up Wednesday.

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, probable) is expected to draw the start in Murray's place once again. Murray's next chance to play will be Wednesday against the Clippers.

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.

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 his 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.

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.

Murray 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 stepped on the court since Nov. 4 due to a nagging hamstring injury that ruled him out for 11 straight games. He struggled with his shot, but other than that, he needs to get into a rhythm to get his numbers back to where they were prior to the injury. Before suffering the hamstring injury, Murray opened the campaign averaging 18.7 points, 8.7 assists and 2.7 rebounds per game in his first six outings.

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 averaged 16.3 points, 7.4 assists and 2.6 rebounds over 30.9 minutes.

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.

Murray (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Clippers but could return later in the week, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Murray will miss an 11th straight game Monday due to a right hamstring strain, but it sounds like his return is imminent. Charania said the All-Star guard is considered day-to-day at this point and 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.

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.

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.

Murray (hamstring) will not play Wednesday against Orlando, Vic Lombardi of AltitudeTV reports.

Murray is also considered doubtful to play Friday, per coach Michael Malone. Murray has been partaking in pregame workouts and appears to be nearing a return, with Sunday against San Antonio becoming a plausible return date.

Coach Michael Malone said Monday that he doesn't think Murray (hamstring) will be ready to play during the Nuggets' current road trip, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray is with the team during the five-game road trip, which started Friday in New Orleans, but it looks like the star point guard will remain sidelined for the Nuggets' next three contests. Denver's next home game is 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.

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.

Murray will likely be sidelined for the rest of November due to a right hamstring strain, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

As expected, Murray will miss an extended period due to a hamstring injury he sustained during Saturday's win over the Bulls. In Murray's absence, Reggie Jackson should be Denver's starting point guard, but the offense will presumably still run through Nikola Jokic. Julian Stawther, Christian Braun and Collin Gillespie are also candidates for increased bench roles until Murray returns.

Murray (hamstring) could miss an extended period of time, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray exited Saturday's contest after suffering a hamstring injury, but no specifics have been announced on its severity. Coach Michael Malone said that Murray will miss a week at minimum. More details will follow in coming days.

Murray (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pelicans.

Murray suffered a right hamstring strain during Sunday's matchup against the Bulls and will be forced to miss at least one game. Reggie Jackson started at point guard during the second half of Saturday's game and should see increased run Monday.

Murray (hamstring) won't return to Saturday's game against the Bulls.

This was to be expected, as the Nuggets are playing their fifth game in seven nights and were already thinking about giving Murray a breather here. His next chance to play will come against the Pelicans on Monday.

Murray is questionable to return Saturday due to a hamstring injury.

Murray was probable before this game due to a quadriceps injury, and while it's not the same problem, it shows he's not 100 percent healthy. Reggie Jackson should see more minutes with Murray sidelined.

Murray (quadriceps) is available and will start against the Bulls on Saturday.

Murray is dealing with a contusion, but that won't stop him from playing here. The 26-year-old guard is averaging 18.7 points, 8.7 assists and 2.7 rebounds in 34.5 minutes across his first six appearances this season.

Murray totaled 18 points (5-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, 13 assists and one steal across 39 minutes during Friday's 125-114 win over the Mavericks.

It's the second double-double of the young season for Murray, who had only five over 65 games in 2022-23. The 26-year-old point guard has also scored at least 14 points in six straight games, and while his volume in general is down a little from the last couple years, Murray's 43.8 percent shooting from three-point range would be a career high.

Murray (quad) is available for Friday's game against Dallas, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray was carrying a probable tag due to a mild contusion on his right quadriceps, so there wasn't much concern here. Through five games, Murray is shooting 45.6 percent from the field and 46.2 percent from beyond the arc.

Murray is probable for Friday's game against the Mavericks due to a right quadriceps contusion.

Murray hasn't appeared to have many limitations early in the year, averaging 18.8 points, 7.8 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 33.4 minutes per game. While he's dealing with a quad issue, he'll likely be able to play through it during Friday's matchup.

Murray ended Wednesday's 110-89 loss to the Timberwolves with 14 points (5-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes.

Murray and Nikola Jokic were the only two players who scored in double digits in this loss, as the Nuggets looked exhausted while seeing the end of their perfect start to the campaign. Despite the loss and the efficiency issues in this particular game, Murray is enjoying a solid start to the season. He should remain Denver's second-best player behind Jokic on most nights.

Murray amassed 18 points (7-19 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, 14 assists and two blocks over 37 minutes during Monday's 110-102 victory over the Jazz.

Murray fell one assist shy of matching his career high, but he nonetheless hosted a masterclass against Utah. Even while Denver scuffled to a 42.9 percent team average from the field, assists were logged on 30 of 42 buckets -- symbolizing the connectivity of the offense.

Murray notched 19 points (9-14 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds and eight assists in 30 minutes during Sunday's 128-95 victory over the Thunder.

Murray handed out a team-leading assist total while finishing one point short of the 20-point mark in a blowout win over Oklahoma City. Murray, who recorded his highest assist mark of the young season, has averaged 21.5 points, 5.5 assists and 1.5 rebounds over his first three games.

Murray contributed 22 points (7-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, five assists and one block in 34 minutes during Friday's 108-104 victory over Memphis.

The 26-year-old guard tied Nikola Jokic for the team lead in scoring on the night, and his four made threes led all shooters. Murray has kicked off his campaign with back-to-back games of 20-plus points, five-plus assists and three-plus three-pointers, but the biggest concern with him from a fantasy perspective remains his ability to stay on the court -- he hasn't played more than 65 games in a season since 2018-19.

Murray notched 21 points (8-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one block over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 119-107 victory over the Lakers.

Even though Nikola Jokic stole the show with his dominant triple-double, there's no question Murray made his presence felt in this one -- he was one of three Denver players to reach the 20-point mark and also missed just five of his 13 shots, meaning he took most of the opportunities he had on the offensive side of the ball. Murray should be a stud in all fantasy formats while working as Denver's second-best offensive threat behind Jokic, and his numbers in this season opener certainly back that up.

Murray is starting Thursday's preseason game against the Clippers.

Murray is back with the first unit after sitting out for rest on Tuesday. The starters are expected to get a good amount of run according to coach Michael Malone for the final preseason game.

Murray will be rested during Tuesday's preseason game against the Clippers.

The Nuggets will be sitting their entire starting lineup Tuesday. Denver's final exhibition is Thursday against the Clippers, but it remains to be seen how involved the key players will be.

Murray delivered 21 points (6-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 8-10 FT), two rebounds, five assists, a steal and a block across 22 minutes in Sunday's 116-102 preseason win over the Bulls.

Murray eclipsed the 20-minute mark for the first time in the preseason on Sunday and responded by putting up his first 20-point game. The Nuggets are cautious of overusing their star players in the preseason as they gear up to defend their title, so Murray is not expected to see more than 20 or 25 minutes of action in the remaining contests before the start of the regular season.

Murray (hamstring) is starting Thursday's preseason contest against the Bulls, Katy Winge of Altitude TV reports.

Murray also played through this injury Tuesday, so the Nuggets are obviously confident that it's very minor.

Murray doesn't appear to have suffered a serious injury, so he is expected to play Thursday. However, he played just 17 minutes in the team's preseason opener. If Murray is upgraded to available, he will likely see a similar workload.

Murray (hamstring) is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's preseason game against the Suns, Katy Winge of Altitude TV reports.

Murray was originally considered questionable after being limited at Monday's practice, but the Nuggets must feel pretty confident to throw him into an exhibition.

Murray (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday's preseason opener against the Suns, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray has been limited by a hamstring injury to start training camp, so it's not surprising to see him listed as questionable. If he doesn't suit up, Reggie Jackson, Jalen Pickett, Collin Gissespie and Souley Boum are candidates for increased run at point guard.

Murray was limited during Monday's practice due to a hamstring injury, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray has been dealing with a hamstring injury since the start of training camp, but the severity of the issue remains unclear. It wouldn't be surprising to see the star point guard held out of Tuesday's preseason matchup versus Phoenix as a precaution, but his availability for that contest has yet to be determined.

Murray notched 14 points (6-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt), eight rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 41 minutes during Monday's 94-89 victory over Miami in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

It certainly wasn't Murray's best performance, but he did just enough to help Denver win the series-clinching Game 5. The star point guard averaged 26.1 points, 7.1 assists, 5.7 rebounds and 1.5 steals with 47/39/92 shooting splits across 20 postseason appearances. It was quiet the bounce-back campaign for Murray, who missed the entire 2021-22 season after tearing his ACL late in the 2020-21 campaign. Murray's still under contract for two more years, so the Nuggets should be in good position to contend again next season.

Murray totaled 34 points (12-22 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 10 rebounds, 10 assists and one steal across 45 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 win over the Heat in Game 3 of the NBA Finals.

Murray made history in Game 3, becoming the first player in NBA history to dish out at least 10 assists in each of the first three games of the Finals. This was his first triple-double of the current postseason run, but he's eked out four double-doubles over his last six appearances. He needs to remain aggressive and play the one-two game with Nikola Jokic if the Nuggets want to clinch the title after jumping out to a 2-1 series lead ahead of Game 4 on Friday.

Murray ended Sunday's 111-108 loss to the Heat in Game 2 of the NBA Finals with 18 points (7-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 39 minutes.

It took a while for Murray to get going, but he was a key player in the second quarter, collecting eight points, two rebounds, two assists and a steal in the stanza as the Nuggets built a 16-point lead before the Heat began to chip away at the deficit. Although Murray finished as the team's second-highest scorer, the team needs heroic nights from Murray, who saved the Nuggets with his stellar play beyond the arc throughout the playoffs. Murray often stays on the court when Nikola Jokic takes a seat, and the Nuggets need Murray to step up in those moments.

Murray closed with 26 points (11-22 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, 10 assists and one steal in 44 minutes during Thursday's 104-93 victory over Miami in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

Murray continued his stellar playoff run Thursday, going for 26-and-10 as the Nuggets held off a late charge by the Heat. He has looked fantastic throughout the playoffs, playing easily his best basketball since returning from a long-term knee injury. Game 2 will once again be in Denver on Monday, with Murray looking to help his team establish a commanding 2-0 series lead.

Murray notched 25 points (10-18 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 43 minutes during Monday's 113-111 win over the Lakers in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals.

Murray finished second on the team in scoring while ending as one of three Nuggets players with 20 or more points in the Game 4 victory Monday. Murray, who scored 15 of his points in the first half alone, has scored at least 25 points in five straight games including in every game of the Western Conference Finals.

Murray logged 37 points (15-29 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and two steals in 42 minutes during Saturday's 119-108 victory over the Lakers in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals.

Murray scored 30 of his game-high 37 points in the first half, shouldering the bulk of the scoring load and keeping the Nuggets relevant. While he slowed during the second half, his teammates came to the party, powering the Nuggets to a 3-0 lead over the Lakers. Murray has been fantastic throughout the playoffs and will undoubtedly be looking to end the series in Game 4 Monday.

Murray notched 37 points (11-24 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 9-10 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists and four steals across 43 minutes during Thursday's 108-103 victory over the Lakers in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals.

Murray seized control of the game in the fourth quarter by going 4-for-5 from deep while scoring 23 of his 37 points. Before his offensive explosion, the Nuggets were struggling mightily from three-point range as a team and were letting the Lakers hang around despite their own offensive inefficiencies. The point guard has now scored at least 30 points in each of the first two games of the Western Conference Finals and is averaging 27.2 points across 13 appearances this postseason, but Murray is also getting it done defensively of late, recording at least three steals in each of his past three games.

Murray had 31 points (12-20 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and three steals across 37 minutes during Tuesday's 132-126 victory over the Lakers in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals.

Murray played 37 minutes despite coming into the game with an illness, scoring an efficient 31 points to go with four combined steals and blocks. While there was never really any chance he was going to miss such an important game, it was good to see him out there doing his thing without any limitations. Game 2 will be in Denver on Thursday and barring any setbacks, Murray should be raring to go for that one.

Murray (illness) is available for Tuesday's Game 1 versus the Lakers, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray has been upgraded from questionable available Tuesday, as expected. Despite dealing with an illness, there is no indication that he will be on a minutes restriction. Murray averaged 23.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.0 steals across his previous two matchups with the Lakers this season.

Murray (illness) is expected to give it a go for Game 1 versus the Lakers on Tuesday despite carrying a questionable tag, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

Murray is still battling an illness, but he obviously looked fine the last time he played through it with 26 points in a Game 6 win over Phoenix on May 11. We should have official confirmation of his status soon.

Murray is questionable for Game 1 of Tuesday's Western Conference Finals matchup against the Lakers due to an illness.

Murray was also questionable for Game 6 against the Suns, but he pushed through and impressed with 26 points, four rebounds, four assists and four steals in 35 minutes. Fantasy managers should look for updates on Murray's status following shootaround, but it would be relatively surprising if he sat out, despite the questionable tag implying it's 50/50.

Murray finished with 26 points (7-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, four assists and four steals over 35 minutes during Thursday's 125-100 victory over Phoenix in Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

Nikola Jokic grabbed all the headlines with an impressive triple-double, but Murray had an amazing performance as well, and this 26-point output represented the fourth time he cleared the 25-point mark. The star point guard is firmly entrenched as Denver's second-best offensive option, and his numbers back that up. Through 11 playoff appearances, Murray is averaging 25.9 points, 6.5 assists and 5.2 rebounds across 38.5 minutes per game.

Murray (illness) will play in Thursday's Game 6 against Phoenix, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

After being a late addition to the injury report and dealing with a non-COVID illness throughout the day, Murray has officially been cleared for Game 6 action. Considering the point guard has scored over 30 points twice and fewer than 20 twice through five games this series, Murray should remain a high-risk, high-reward option in daily formats, though his steady rebound and assist production give him a safer floor.

Coach Michael Malone said Murray (illness) "should be good to go" for Thursday's Game 6 against the Suns, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.

Murray was a late addition to the Nuggets' injury report Thursday, dealing with a non-COVID illness. Though managers will have to wait for official confirmation of his availability, Murray is expected to be active. Considering it's unclear how severe the illness is, Murray could see a few less minutes or may not be at full strength. Regardless, Murray has taken 24 or more shots in three of the first five games, averaging 31.3 points, 7.0 assists and 5.3 rebounds over 40.0 minutes in those contests and should remain a high-upside option in daily formats.

Murray is questionable for Thursday's Game 6 versus the Suns due to a non-COVID illness.

Murray's late addition to the injury report is a bad sign of his availability Thursday. The Nuggets will likely assess how the star guard is feeling in pre-game warmups and make a game-time decision. If Murray can't play, Bruce Brown, Christian Braun, and Reggie Jackson are candidates to receive increased minutes.

Murray logged 28 points (13-25 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 42 minutes during Sunday's 129-124 loss to Phoenix in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

Denver played with a slim eight-man rotation in the loss, which made it necessary for Murray to record his highest minute count of the playoffs. Murray has averaged 28.6 points during the playoffs, but he's demonstrated some variance, with three scoring totals below 20 points. Still, Murray represents Denver's second-best scoring threat behind Nikola Jokic, and his output is a critical component on both sides of the ball.

Murray produced 34 points (13-24 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Saturday's 125-107 victory over the Suns in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

Murray is now averaging 28.3 points per game on 48.4 percent from the field across Denver's six playoff contests thus far. His layup package, three-point bombing and full arsenal of off-the-dribble scoring was on display in a game that Denver thoroughly controlled.

Murray had 35 points (12-23 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal in 41 minutes during Tuesday's 112-109 victory over Minnesota in Game 5 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

With contributors like Nikola Jokic and Michael Porter struggling to score, Murray came through with a very accurate night that included five three pointers in the Game 5 victory. Murray had a couple of rough performances in the series, but managed an average of 27.2 points, 6.4 assists and 5.6 rebounds over five games against the Timberwolves. Murray's numbers were glaringly different on the road, where he averaged only 18.5 points over two games in Minneapolis.

Murray posted 19 points (8-21 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds and five assists over 41 minutes during Sunday's 114-108 overtime loss to the Timberwolves in Game 4 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

Although Murray's scoring total was better than his Game 3 result, the guard shot 38 percent from the floor and made only two three-pointers in seven attempts. Despite the poor shooting performance, Murray is still averaging 25.3 points, 6.8 assists and 6.0 rebounds in the series.

Murray accumulated 40 points (13-22 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 8-9 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two steals in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 122-113 win over the Timberwolves in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

Nikola Jokic had a strong game and came close to a triple-double Wednesday, but Murray carried the team offensively and reached the 40-point plateau for the first time since Feb. 4, when he recorded 41 points in a road win over the Hawks. Murray should be a strong fantasy play and a valuable piece on offense for the Nuggets ahead of Game 3 on Friday.

Murray (thumb) will be active for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray battled a thumb injury over the closing stretch of the regular season but appears to have overcome the issue in time for Denver's playoff opener. Murray should be expected to retake his spot in the starting lineup and handle a full workload Sunday.

Murray wasn't wearing a brace and was full go during Wednesday's practice, but he said after the session that his thumb issue is still on his mind when he's catching or shooting the ball, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

Murray joined the rest of Denver's starters on the sidelines for Sunday's regular-season finale, marking his second absence over three games due to the right thumb issue. The point guard still has a couple more days to rest and rehab before the Nuggets know who their opening-round playoff matchup will be, and while it sounds like Murray will give it a go regardless, his current thumb issue is certainly a storyline worth following.

Murray (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus Sacramento.

With Murray joining the rest of Denver's regular starters on the sidelines for Sunday's regular-season finale, expect major minutes for Reggie Jackson, Bruce Brown and Christian Braun. Murray won't play in this meaningless game, but he should be fine for the playoffs.

Murray (calf) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Kings.

With the No. 1 seed locked up, Denver is listing the majority of its regulars as questionable for the regular-season finale. It's currently unclear who'll be available for the Nuggets, but even if Murray sits, there's been no indication that the issue would prevent him from playing during the postseason.

Murray (thumb) will play in Saturday's game against the Jazz.

As expected, Murray will take the floor Saturday, but as Mike Malone previously mentioned, he will likely not play the entire game. Considering the unsure nature of his workload, Murray's fantasy value will take a significant hit.

Murray (thumb) is expected to play Saturday at Utah, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Coach Michael Malone expects the full starting five to be available Saturday, as he wants the team to get minutes on the court together to maintain rhythm. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect the starters to play the whole game.

Murray (thumb) is questionable for Saturday against the Jazz.

The Nuggets have already clinched the top seed in the Western Conference, so we could see the starters get some rest in the final two games of the season. If Murray is held out, we could see plenty of Reggie Jackson after his strong performance against the Suns on Thursday.

Murray (thumb) will miss Thursday's game versus the Suns.

Murray departed Tuesday's game versus the Rockets prematurely after suffering a thumb sprain, and he will miss at least one game to rest the issue. With the Nuggets having already claimed the top spot in the West, the staff will likely ensure he's fully healthy before putting him back on the floor, and there are only two more opportunities for him to suit up Saturday versus the Jazz or Sunday against the Kings. Bruce Brown will likely draw the starting nod against the Jazz, though Reggie Jackson figures to be a bigger factor as well.

Murray (thumb) is questionable for Thursday's game in Phoenix.

Murray was forced out of Tuesday's game after suffering the thumb sprain, and now he's in danger of skipping Thursday's matchup with Phoenix. Nikola Jokic's status is also up in the air due to tightness in his right calf. If both these guys are forced to the sidelines, Michael Porter Jr. and Aaron Gordon will be very busy on offense and there will be more minutes available for Reggie Jackson and Ish Smith. Stay tuned.

Murray (thumb) will not return to Tuesday's game against Houston according to Mike Singer of the Denver Post.

Murray played through a probable tag due to his sprained right thumb, but he lasted just nine minutes Tuesday and finished with two points and four assists. He should be considered questionable for Thursday against the Suns. If he misses time, the Nuggets could turn to Reggie Jackson.

Murray is questionable to return for Tuesday's game against the Rockets with a sprained right thumb, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray was probable on the injury report leading up to Tuesday's game with this same thumb issue and played one rotational stint before returning to the bench and applying ice to the injury. Considering the Nuggets are nearly locked into the top seed in the Western Conference, they could be more inclined to give Murray the remainder of Tuesday's contest off.

Murray (thumb) is starting against Houston on Tuesday.

Murray had a probable tag prior to this update and had played 41 minutes on April 2 against Golden State, so there was some mild concern that he would sit out for maintenance.

Murray is probable for Tuesday's game against the Rockets due to a right thumb sprain.

Murray has been managing a knee injury in recent weeks but is dealing with a thumb issue ahead of Tuesday's matchup. However, he'll likely be able to suit up against Houston. Over his last 10 appearances, he's averaged 20.8 points, 7.3 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 35.8 minutes per game.

Murray ended with 26 points (10-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and two steals in 41 minutes during Sunday's 112-110 victory over the Warriors.

The Warriors commenced a nine-point rally in the game's final moments, but Murray topped off a magnificent game with a block of Klay Thompson's potential game-winner. The potential Western Conference playoff preview marked one of Murray's best all-around games of the season, and he looked 100 percent after missing Friday's game due to an illness. Murray and Michael Porter picked up the slack offensively while weathering another absence from Nikola Jokic (calf). The Nuggets won't take any chances with Jokic, so expect Murray to be the team's primary offensive engine as the season draws to a close.

Murray (knee) will be available for Sunday's game against Golden State.

As anticipated, Murray will be back in action after sitting out Friday's loss to the Suns for rest purposes. With Nikola Jokic (calf) missing a third straight game, expect Murray to serve as the Nuggets' top offensive option Sunday.

Murray (knee) is probable for Sunday's game versus Golden State.

Murray is expected to suit up Sunday after missing the previous game with left knee injury management. The star guard will likely replace Reggie Jackson in the starting lineup.

Murray (injury management) will not play Friday against the Suns.

The Nuggets are essentially punting this game with Nikola Jokic (calf), Michael Porter (heel) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (illness) all being held out. With so many key players out, the Nuggets will need a lot from Bruce Brown. Christian Braun and Ish Smith are likely to be heavily involved as well.

Murray (injury management) is unlikely to play Friday against the Suns, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

After playing 36 minutes in the first leg of the Nuggets' back-to-back Thursday, coach Mike Malone made it clear after the game that the guard is unlikely to play Friday. With the postseason approaching, Denver's electing to be cautious with its' star players with only six games remaining in the regular season.

Murray registered 26 points (9-19 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, nine assists and one block over 33 minutes during Saturday's 129-106 victory over the Bucks.

Murray scored at least 25 points for the third time over his past four appearances and dished out at least eight assists for the five time across his last six games. Since returning from a six-game absence in February, the point guard has appeared in 15 straight contests, averaging 20.0 points, 7.2 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals with 42/40/79 shooting splits during that stretch.

Murray provided 17 points (7-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt), six rebounds and eight assists over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 118-104 victory over the Wizards.

Murray's scoring number wasn't gaudy, but he continues to produce efficient games. Denver's point guard is averaging 8.2 assists per game over the last five and has hit 12 of his last 17 threes. His uptick in assists and three-point shooting has come at a critical time for fantasy managers. The only recent downside for Murray is his lack of steals with just one takeaway in the last four games.

Murray ended Sunday's 108-102 win over the Nets with 25 points (9-19 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound and eight assists over 37 minutes.

Twenty of Murray's 25 points came in the first quarter, as the 26-year-old point guard issued a wakeup call to a Nuggets squad that had lost five of its last six. He's scored in double digits in 11 straight games, averaging 21.2 points, 7.1 assists, 3.5 boards, 3.5 threes and 1.3 steals over that stretch while shooting 41.3 percent from long distance.

Murray provided 25 points (9-14 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Saturday's 116-110 loss to New York.

Murray scored an efficient 25 points in the loss, pacing all players in the scoring department. Despite dealing with some ongoing knee soreness, Murray has played in the past 12 games, exceeding 30 minutes in all but one. With that said, the Nuggets do play again Sunday against the Nets. There is certainly a chance Murray is given the night off, although having lost five of their past six games, a victory is going to be ultra-important.

Murray provided 19 points (7-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and 10 assists across 39 minutes during Thursday's 119-100 win over the Pistons.

Murray played through an ongoing knee issue, handing out double-digit assists for just the fifth time this season. Perhaps more importantly, he was relatively efficient from the field, a welcome sight after having shot under 30 percent in three of the four previous games. Despite his knee concerns, Murray has played in 11 consecutive games. The risk of missed games remains a very real possibility but for now, managers simply have to hope he can stay off the injury report.

Murray (knee) is available for Thursday's matchup against the Pistons.

There was an off chance Murray would sit out Thursday for injury management against one of the worst teams in the league, but the Nuggets will let the point guard give it a shot. He's struggled shooting since the All-Star break, slashing just 39/34/76.

Murray is probable for Thursday's game versus the Pistons due to left knee injury management.

Murray is expected to suit up in the second leg of Denver's back-to-back Wednesday. Murray's production has suffered while battling through knee injuries as he is averaging 18.8 points, 6.7 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 34.1 minutes across his last 10 games. However, his 38.8 field-goal percentage and 33.7 three-point percentage over that span are even more alarming.

Murray closed with 14 points (5-18 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, nine assists, one block and two steals over 40 minutes during Tuesday's 125-110 loss to the Raptors.

Murray played through an ongoing knee issue but continued to struggle from the floor, landing just 5-of-18 from the field. He has now shot under 30 percent in three of the past four games, crippling managers who are entrenched in their fantasy playoffs. The fact he played 40 minutes does indicate his knee is not too serious. However, the Nuggets will face off against the lowly Pistons on Thursday, meaning the medical staff may opt to give Murray the night off.

Murray (knee) will play Tuesday in Toronto, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.

"There was no way in hell he wasn't playing [Tuesday]," said Malone of Murray when announcing his status for their matchup with the Raptors. This will be just the fourth game of Murray's career playing in front of the Canadian crowd in Toronto, as he missed last year's matchup due to his ACL injury and the previous few were in Tampa during the bubble season. Malone did acknowledge that if Murray's knee starts bothering him that he'll curtail his minutes, so he's a semi-risky target in daily fantasy leagues.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against Toronto.

Murray left Sunday's loss to the Nets in the second half due to knee soreness and didn't return. After the contest, the team said the point guard is expected to be "fine," but it appears they'll proceed with caution. If Murray is sidelined, Reggie Jackson (oblique), Bruce Brown, Christian Braun and Ish Smith would all be candidates for increased playing time.

Murray (knee) exited Sunday's loss to the Nets in the second half due to a sore left knee, but he's expected to be "fine," per Mike Singer of the Denver Post.

While it was mildly concerning that Murray did not return to Sunday's game, it looks as though the team was simply exercising caution with its star guard. Until further notice, Murray should be considered questionable for Tuesday's game at Toronto, which kicks off a four-game week for Denver. The Nuggets also play Thursday (at DET) before finishing out with a Saturday/Sunday back-to-back set against the Knicks and Nets.

Murray is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against the Nets due to left knee soreness, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray posted 16 points in 28 minutes before leaving the contest in the second half. The Nuggets start a five-game road trip Tuesday, so fantasy managers should monitor Murray's status closely to see if he travels with the team or not.

Murray totaled 24 points (9-21 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and three steals over 37 minutes during Friday's 128-120 loss to the Spurs.

Murray bounced back in a big way after he was held to 11 points against the Bulls on Wednesday. Even if you include that dud, Murray has been on fire over his past six games with 22.3 points, 7.5 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.3 triples.

Murray recorded 11 points (4-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and six assists over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 117-96 loss to Chicago.

Murray's inefficiency caused him to score his fewest points since Feb. 25. However, fantasy managers shouldn't be worried as the star guard is still averaging 24.0 points, 7.2 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 33.8 minutes across his last 10 games. Murray is a top-tier contributor benefitting from playing alongside Nikola Jokic.

Murray provided 24 points (9-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, five assists and three steals in 33 minutes during Monday's 118-113 victory over the Raptors.

Murray finished with at least 20 points and five assists for a fourth straight game. During that stretch, he's averaging 24.8 points and 8.0 assists while posting 50/44/70 shooting spilts. The dynamic point guard is also making his presence felt on the defensive end recently and has totaled 11 steals over his last six games.

Murray logged 22 points (8-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Friday's 113-97 victory over the Grizzlies.

Murray scored 20-plus points for a third straight game and fell one assist shy of notching his second double-double during that stretch. Since the All-Star break (five games), the point guard is averaging 19.8 points, 8.0 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 33.6 minutes.

Murray amassed 32 points (12-18 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 133-112 victory over the Rockets.

Murray was dealing with back soreness before Tuesday's contest, but that wasn't noticeable once the game started, and the star point guard led the Nuggets in scoring en route to an easy 21-point win. Murray has scored 20 or more points in eight of his last 10 games and is averaging 25.6 points per contest in that span.

Murray (back) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Rockets.

Murray has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday with back soreness. The star guard is averaging 23.8 points, 8.0 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 33.0 minutes across his last five appearances.

Murray is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Rockets due to low back pain.

Murray was a strong contributor during Sunday's overtime win over the Clippers, posting 21 points, 12 assists, five rebounds and two steals in 41 minutes. However, he's dealing with a back issue following the victory, and it's unclear whether he'll be available Tuesday. If he's sidelined against Houston, Reggie Jackson and Bruce Brown are candidates to see increased playing time.

Murray contributed 21 points (8-22 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, 12 assists and two steals in 41 minutes during Sunday's 134-124 overtime win over the Clippers.

Murray struggled with his three-point shot but still managed to top the 20-point mark for the first time since Feb. 4. He also dished out his most assists since Jan. 20 en route to his fourth double-double of the campaign. It was by far the point guard's best performance since returning from a six-game absence due to right knee soreness, and it's safe to expect more of this type of production for Murray moving forward.

Murray (foot) is available for Sunday's game against the Clippers.

Murray was probable ahead of Sunday's matchup due to right foot inflammation, so it's not very surprising to see him available against the Clippers. Over two appearances since the All-Star break, he's averaged 12.0 points and 6.5 assists in 29.0 minutes per game.

Murray has been listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Clippers due to right foot inflammation.

Murray finished with eight points (3-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 25 minutes during Saturday's 112-94 loss to the Grizzlies. The fact that he's been listed as probable suggests he has a strong chance of suiting up ahead of the 10 p.m. ET tip-off against the Clippers, but his status is worth monitoring closer to the start of the game. If he ends up being ruled out, then Reggie Jackson, Bruce Brown and Ish Smith would be in line for bigger roles.

Murray finished with eight points (3-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 25 minutes during Saturday's 112-94 loss to the Grizzlies.

Murray had a woeful performance from the field in this one and looked awful overall, failing to make an impact in a game where the Nuggets looked overmatched most of the time. This is probably nothing more than a bad game for the star point guard, though, who's averaging 24.5 points per game in four outings this month.

Murray finished with 16 points (6-19 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, nine assists and two steals over 33 minutes during Thursday's 115-109 victory over the Cavaliers.

Murray missed each of Denver's last six games due to a knee injury, and while he returned here and endured an almost full workload, he didn't have his best outing and looked rusty at times, particularly with his shot. Either way, the star point guard ended up just one dime shy of posting what would've been his first double-digit assist contest since Jan. 20. Murray is averaging 23.5 points, 6.2 assists and 4.4 rebounds per game since the start of January.

Head coach Michael Malone said Murray (knee) will play Thursday against the Cavaliers, Spencer Davies of BasketballNews.com reports.

Murray missed Denver's final six games before the All-Star break due to right knee soreness, and while he deemed himself healthy, he was initially listed as questionable for the Nuggets' first game of the second-half schedule. However, it appears that listing was merely a formality, as the dynamic point guard has officially been cleared by his head coach. Given it'll be Murray's first time suiting up since Feb. 4, he may operate under a minutes restriction, but it's safe to assume he'll garner his usual role in the starting lineup until told otherwise. Before his absence, Murray was playing extremely well, posting 28.0 points, 7.6 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals while shooting 51.9 percent from the field and 42.9 percent from deep.

Murray is questionable for Thursday's matchup against Cleveland due to right knee inflammation.

Murray missed Denver's final six games before the All-Star break due to right knee soreness, and despite the point guard saying he'd play Thursday, he's officially listed as questionable. If Murray is sidelined again, Bruce Brown should draw another start at point guard, while recently-signed Reggie Jackson could emerge as the top backup.

Murray (right knee) said he will play Thursday against the Cavaliers according to Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports.

Murray missed the past six games for Denver, but he was able to get plenty of rest during the All-Star break and participated in Tuesday's practice. Bruce Brown did an admirable job filling in for Murray, but his usage rate will take a hit with this news. As for Ish Smith, his fantasy value was already trending down anyways with the Nuggets picking up Reggie Jackson as their new backup point guard.

Murray (knee) will remain on the sidelines for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray will skip Denver's final game heading into the All-Star break, which will mark his sixth straight game on the sidelines. However, when Malone was asked about Murray being out again, he said that Denver is "just being smart," and he believes the extended rest coming out of the All-Star break will do him well. Bruce Brown and Christian Braun will continue to benefit in Murray's absence.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks.

Murray's absences are starting to become a bit concerning, as he's missed five straight due to right knee soreness. Considering Wednesday is Denver's final game before the All-Star break, it wouldn't be surprising if the point guard is held out to mitigate the risk of re-injury.

Murray (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Heat, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray will miss a fifth straight game due to right knee soreness. Bruce Brown is expected to start at point guard again, but Nikola Jokic will continue to shoulder the majority of the playmaking duties. Murray's final chance to suit up before the All-Star break will arrive Monday in Miami, though it'd make sense if Denver held the point guard out again to give him even more time to rest his knee.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Monday's matchup with Miami.

Murray has missed the past four games due to some inflammation in his surgically-repaired right knee, and it wouldn't be shocking to see Denver decide to hold him out for these final two games going into the All-Star break in order to give him some extra rest. If Murray is out again on Monday, Bruce Brown should get another start and there will be more minutes available for Christian Braun.

Murray (knee) is out for Saturday's tilt against the Hornets, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.

Murray joins Aaron Gordon (ribs) on the shelf, so the shorthanded Nuggets will presumably rely more on Bruce Brown, Ish Smith, Christian Braun and Vlatko Cancar. Saturday marks Murray's fourth straight absence, with his next chance to return arriving Monday at Miami.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Hornets.

Right knee inflammation has forced Murray to miss the past three games. If available Saturday, he could be on a minutes limit. Prior to his absence, the point guard had scored 22-plus in six straight games, with averages of 29.8 points, 7.2 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 36.5 minutes.

Head coach Michael Malone ruled out Murray (knee) for Thursday's game versus the Magic, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.

Murray will miss his third consecutive contest in what is the first of a three-game road trip Thursday. With Murray unavailable and Bones Hyland shipped to the Clippers, Bruce Brown and Ish Smith should handle most of the minutes at point guard. Murray's next opportunity to retake the floor arrives Saturday in Charlotte.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Magic.

Murray is in danger of missing his third straight game but is now listed with right knee inflammation. If he can't suit up Thursday, his next chance will be Saturday's matchup with Charlotte.

Murray (knee) is out for Tuesday's game versus the Timberwolves, Brendan Vogt of The DNVR.com reports.

Murray will miss his second straight game after being downgraded from probable to out Tuesday with a left knee injury. Bruce Brown will likely remain in the starting lineup in his absence. Murray's next chance to play is Thursday's matchup with Orlando.

Murray (knee) has been downgraded to questionable for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves.

Murray was initially listed as probable after missing Sunday's game due to rest, but he may still be dealing with some left knee soreness. If he's out again, Bruce Brown has a strong chance of remaining with the starters.

Murray (knee) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves.

Murray sat out Sunday against Minnesota due to left knee injury management, but he'll likely be available for Tuesday's rematch. Over his last four appearances, he's averaged 32.0 points, 6.8 assists and 4.8 rebounds in 35.3 minutes per game.

Murray (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with Minnesota.

Murray is getting his standard rest day on the second leg of a back-to-back, but he should be back for Tuesday's rematch with the Timberwolves. Expect more run for Christian Braun and Bones Hyland with Murray watching from the sidelines on Sunday.

Murray has been listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves due to injury management of a left knee injury.

Murray is coming off a season-best performance against the Hawks on Saturday, tallying a season-high 41 points (15-24 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT) to go along with seven assists, five rebounds and one steal across 36 minutes, and considering the heavy load he carried in that game, and the fact that the Nuggets medical staff has been extremely cautious with his recovery process, it wouldn't be shocking if he ends up being ruled out before the 7 p.m. ET tip-off. If that's the case, then Bones Hyland, Ish Smith and even Bruce Brown would benefit from extra minutes.

Murray totaled 41 points (15-24 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Saturday's 128-108 win over the Hawks.

Murray got his shots off early and often Saturday, going 6-of-10 from the field in the first quarter before entering the break with 22 points to lead all players in the contest. The point guard poured in another 19 points on 7-of-10 shooting in the second half to finish with a game and season-high 41 points on the night. Murray also knocked down a game-high seven three-pointers in the contest - the second time in his last three games in which he's gone 7-of-12 from beyond the arc. He'll look to make it four straight games with at least 30 points when the Nuggets face off against the Timberwolves on Sunday.

Murray amassed 33 points (12-23 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 30 minutes during Thursday's 134-117 win over the Warriors.

Murray continued his recent scoring surge Thursday, surpassing the 30-point mark for the second straight game and finishing with over 20 points for his fifth straight contest. The point guard didn't let his scoring output interfere with his playmaking duties, as he also dished eight assists -- his third-highest mark since the start of the new year. After averaging 22.1 points, 5.8 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 2.9 three-pointers in January, Murray appears poised to keep his foot on the pedal with a big performance in his first game of February.

Murray ended Tuesday's 122-113 win over New Orleans with 32 points (10-21 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds and six assists over 36 minutes.

Murray looked better than ever against New Orleans, and he drilled seven three-pointers on the way to one of his best totals of the season. Although Murray has recently struggled with a knee injury, he showed no ill effects against the struggling Pelicans. His 32 points marked his second-best scoring total of the season, and he's currently on pace to crush his previous seasonal per-game averages in both assists (5.7) and rebounds (4.1).

Murray (knee) is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game versus New Orleans.

Murray has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday due to left knee injury management. The star guard is averaging 23.6 points, 8.0 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals across his last appearances and should be a productive fantasy option whenever he's in the lineup.

Murray is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Pelicans due to left knee injury management.

Murray has played over 35 minutes in six of his past 10 appearances, posting 22.7 points, 6.8 assists, 4.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals during that stretch, but he may take a seat to manage his surgically repaired left knee during Tuesday's contest. If the star point guard is sidelined, Bones Hyland, Bruce Brown and Christian Braun would be candidates for increased roles against New Orleans.

Murray accumulated 22 points (7-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one steal over 39 minutes during Saturday's 126-119 loss to the 76ers.

The 25-year-old guard sat out the Nuggets' last game due to minor knee and hip ailments, but Murray was back on the court for a showdown between two of the top three teams in the NBA by winning percentage. He's scored at least 20 points in three straight games and six of the last 10, averaging 22.7 points, 6.8 assists, 4.8 boards, 2.7 threes and 1.2 steals over that stretch as he marches toward another strong season.

Murray (hip) is good to go for Saturday's game against the 76ers.

Murray missed the Nuggets previous game against the Bucks due to knee management. With that extra rest under his belt, he is all set for his normal workload in Philadelphia assuming he avoids any setbacks.

Murray is considered questionable for Saturday's game against the 76ers due to a left hip sprain.

Murray was listed as managing a knee injury for Wednesday's game in Milwaukee, making it appear that he was likely resting more than anything. However, the addition of a left hip sprain suggests there is more uncertainty surrounding his status leading up to Saturday. The team should supply more information on his status come game day. Bruce Brown (knee), who was also added to the injury report ahead of Saturday's contest as questionable, could draw another start if Brown can play and Murray is unavailable.

Murray (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup in Milwaukee.

Murray, Nikola Jokic (hamstring), Michael Porter (personal) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (wrist) will all be sidelined for the second half of Denver's back-to-back set Wednesday. Bones Hyland (finger) remains a game-time decision, so the Nuggets' starting lineup will consist nearly entirely of backups. Murray is listed with left knee injury management, which suggests he's simply taking a night off, so the point guard should be back in action for Saturday's matchup in Philadelphia.

Murray is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Bucks due to left knee injury management.

Murray has appeared in 12 consecutive games but may sit out Wednesday -- the second night of a back-to-back. Denver also has plenty of other players questionable, like Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (wrist), Bones Hyland (finger), Nikola Jokic (hamstring) and Michael Porter (personal). Fantasy managers, especially those playing in daily lineup leagues, should keep an eye on Denver's injury report leading up to tipoff.

Murray had 25 points (11-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt), one rebound, seven assists and three steals over 40 minutes during Tuesday's 99-98 victory over the Pelicans.

Murray dropped at least 20 points for the third time in his past four games, a timeframe in which he has put up top-20 value across standard formats. Despite coming into the season underdone, Murray has been able to increase his productivity with each passing week. He is going to be a key piece for the Nuggets are they push for an elusive title, meaning his value should remain consistent ROS.

Murray contributed 26 points (11-23 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and nine assists across 38 minutes during Sunday's 101-99 loss to the Thunder.

Murray was able to throw up a decent total despite constant double-teaming by the Thunder, who were smart to focus on the premier guard with Nikola Jokic (hamstring( and Michael Porter (personal) out. Thanks to consistent shot volume and productive assist numbers, Murray is slowly creeping back up into the upper echelon of floor generals in the Western Conference.

Murray (hip) is available Sunday against the Thunder.

Murray was questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup but will be able to play through his left hip sprain. He's been productive on both ends of the court recently, averaging 20.7 points, 8.3 assists, 5.7 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 30.7 minutes per game over his last three appearances.

Murray is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Thunder due to a sprained left hip.

Murray posted a triple-double in just 29 minutes during Saturday's 134-111 win over the Pacers but didn't emerge unscathed. In addition to Murray's questionable status, Bones Hyland (finger) is also questionable, which could leave plenty of minutes for Ish Smith if one or both are shelved.

Murray amassed 17 points (4-8 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 10 rebounds, 14 assists and two steals across 29 minutes during Friday's 134-111 victory over the Pacers.

Murray racked up his first triple-double of the season, doing all of his work in just 29 minutes. The Nuggets ran away with this one, affording Murray some additional rest down the stretch. With Nikola Jokic (hamstring) ruled out, Murray took it upon himself to run the offense, while also dominating the glass. He has been putting up top-30 value in standard formats over the past month, demonstrating how influential he can be when healthy.

Murray (foot/ankle) is available and will start Friday against the Pacers.

As expected, Murray will suit up for a 10th straight contest despite being initially listed as probable with foot and ankle injuries. During that stretch, the dynamic point guard has averaged 20.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists in 32.2 minutes per game. He figures to garner a similar workload Friday, though he may handle increased playmaking duties with Nikola Jokic (illness) sidelined.

Murray (foot, ankle) is probable for Friday's game against the Pacers.

Murray continues to be bothered by foot and ankle inflammation, but he's expected to still appear in a 10th straight game Friday. Over the past nine, he's averaged 20.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists in 32.2 minutes.

Murray chipped in 28 points (10-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, four assists and two steals in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 122-118 victory over the Timberwolves.

Murray was the focal point of a rally to bring the Nuggets back into the game, and his running floater with less than a minute to go sealed the deal. When Murray and Nikola Jokic are dialed in as they were in the victory, they're one of the most dangerous guard-center duos in the league.

Murray (ankle) will play and start in Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.

Murray was tabbed as probable ahead of the contest due to inflammation in his right ankle but will suit up and should handle his typical workload Wednesday. He has tallied at least 15 points in seven consecutive contests and has notched six or more assists in three of his last four.

Murray (ankle/foot) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.

Murray continues to deal with right foot and ankle inflammation, but he's played through the issue recently and will likely be able to suit up again Wednesday. Over his last three appearances, he's averaged 19.7 points, 6.0 assists and 5.7 rebounds in 35.7 minutes per game.

Murray (ankle) is available and starting Tuesday versus the Trail Blazers.

The 25-year-old appeared to be trending in the wrong direction after he was downgraded from probable to questionable Tuesday afternoon, but the lingering ankle sprain won't prevent him from taking the court against Portland. Murray has averaged 22.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.6 assists in 34.0 minutes over his past five games.

Murray (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against Trail Blazers.

Murray was initially listed as probable with a lingering ankle issue but has since been downgraded to questionable. While the point guard still has a chance to suit up, it appears he's trending in the wrong direction. Bones Hyland (ankle) is also questionable, so Ish Smith and Bruce Brown may be candidates for increased roles, though Nikola Jokic would presumably handle the majority of the ball-handling responsibilities if both of Denver's point guard are ultimately ruled out.

Murray is probable for Tuesday's game against San Antonio due to a left ankle sprain.

Murray has been listed as probable before being upgraded to active in each of his last two games after exiting Wednesday's game due to an ankle injury. Tuesday's contest should be no different, however, fantasy managers should keep an eye on his status leading up to tipoff considering the tilt is the first leg of a back-to-back set.

Murray notched 18 points (6-17 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and seven assists over 38 minutes during Sunday's 119-116 win over Orlando.

Murray couldn't find his shooting rhythm in the first half, knocking down just one of six field goal attempts and two free throws for a total of four points, while adding five assists and three rebounds. He fared better in the second half with 14 points on 5-of-11 shooting to help the Nuggets hang on for their sixth straight win. The point guard shot 35.3 percent from the field in the contest, his worst shooting percentage this month by a wide margin, though he's now scored at least 18 points in eight of his last 11 games.

Murray (ankle) is starting Sunday against the Magic.

Murray was probable for Sunday's matchup due to his left ankle sprain, so it isn't very surprising to see him starting against Orlando. Over his last six appearances, he's averaged 20.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 31.5 minutes per game.

Murray is probable for Sunday's game versus the Magic with a left ankle sprain.

Murray also received a questionable tag Friday before being upgraded to available. The star guard is averaging 22.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 30.6 minutes across his last five games.

Murray amassed 24 points (8-17 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and four assists over 39 minutes during Friday's 115-103 victory over the Clippers.

Nikola Jokic's (wrist) absence required the Nuggets to step up elsewhere, and it was Murray who led the charge, erasing LA's lead in the first half. Although Friday's win was less convincing than Denver's 31-point thrashing of the Clippers a week ago, the team proved it can still be effective without their top producer. Murray showed no ill effects from the wrist injury that landed him on the injury report.

Murray (ankle) is available for Friday's game versus the Clippers.

Murray has been upgraded from probable to available Friday after suffering a left ankle sprain in his previous game. The star guard will likely be the focal point of the Nuggets' offense with Nikola Jokic (wrist) out.

Murray (ankle) is probable for Friday's game against the Clippers.

The point guard rolled his ankle during Wednesday's matchup against the Suns, but coach Michael Malone said Thursday that he expected Murray to be able to play against the Clippers. His probable designation reflects that optimism, so it seems unlikely that he'll be forced to miss any time due to the injury.

Nuggets coach Mike Malone said Murray rolled his ankle a "little bit" Wednesday and should be able to suit up for Friday's game versus the Clippers, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray left Wednesday's game against the Suns early but doesn't appear to have suffered a serious injury. Fantasy managers should check for an official injury status ahead of Friday's contest, but the star guard should be good to go.

Murray exited Wednesday's contest against the Suns with a left ankle sprain and is questionable to return.

Murray managed to score 16 points and dish out six assists across 25 minutes before leaving the hardwood. With the Nuggets up by a wide margin, Murray shouldn't be needed for the rest of the contest even if he is healthy enough to return. Bones Hyland will likely pick up a couple more minutes Wednesday if Murray stays sidelined.

Murray contributed 34 points (13-29 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Monday's 122-109 victory over the Lakers.

With Nikola Jokic registering another triple-double but taking only five field-goal attempts in the contest, Murray worked as Denver's primary scorer. He took over twice as many shots as any other player on the team and led the Nuggets with a season-high 34 points. Murray shot only 8-for-20 from two-point range but was excellent from beyond the arc, knocking down five of nine attempts. This was his third 30-point game of the season and first since he put up 30 against Utah on Dec. 10.

Murray (knee) is good to go for Friday's game against the Cavaliers, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

No surprise here, as Murray drew a probable designation prior to the game. It will be the first time he played both nights of a back-to-back set this season. Thus, the team could look to err on the side of caution with his minutes, but he should see close to his usual workload.

Murray is listed as probable for Friday's game versus the Cavaliers due to left knee injury management.

Murray is expected to play both games of a back-to-back for the first time this season. However, the star guard may play less than the 31.6 minutes he's averaging in 2022-23.

Murray finished Thursday's 122-91 victory over the Clippers with 18 points (7-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes.

Murray cruised to a game-high 18 points Thursday, one of seven Nuggets players to score in double-digits. The game was basically over at the half, meaning the starters were barely required in the second half. In fact, barring Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, none of the starting five played more than 24 minutes. The Nuggets play again on Friday, and while it is the second night of a back-to-back, Murray has stated that he will be in action. Given he is yet to play both games of a back-to-back this season, managers will still want to check the injury report prior to getting him active Friday.

Murray (injury management) will play Friday against the Cavaliers, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray has yet to play in both legs of a back-to-back all season. After contributing 18 points, four rebounds, and an assist against the Clippers on Thursday, the 25-year-old guard is in line to start Friday against Cleveland.

Murray recorded 14 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Monday's 124-111 loss to the Timberwolves.

Murray was not at his best in the loss, scoring 14 points for the second straight game. He continues to miss time as part of his injury management plan, something that appears to be throwing off his offensive rhythm. He is currently outside the top 100 in standard formats, a rank that his managers would like to see increase. After a couple of mediocre performances and two missed games, this could be an opportunity for a buy-low offer for those interested in acquiring his services mid-season.

Murray (knee) was left off the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Timberwolves.

Murray was expected to be available after sitting out Sunday's game for injury management purposes and should be expected to start in Monday's contest. In his last eight appearances, Murray has averaged 19.3 points, 7.3 assists and 4.3 rebounds in 36.4 minutes per game.

Murray (injury management) will not be available for Sunday's game against the Celtics, TJ McBride of Denver Stiffs reports.

As has been the case all season, Murray will be held out of one half of the Nuggets' upcoming back-to-back set. The expectation is that he'll return return for Monday's game against Minnesota, though fantasy managers may want to brace for a potential two-game week from the star guard, as Denver has another back-to-back set coming up Thursday (vs. LAC) and Friday (vs. CLE).

Murray (knee) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Celtics due to injury management.

Murray is at risk for resting Sunday given the contest is the first of a back-to-back set. He has yet to play both legs of a back-to-back this season, having sat in one portion of each set thus far. Bones Hyland would likely enter the starting lineup and become a strong fantasy option if Murray sits.

Murray (knee) is available and in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Heat, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray was in danger of missing his second straight game due to a knee issue. However, Denver has given him the green light and the star guard will presumably take on his usual workload assuming he avoids any setbacks.

Murray (knee) is questionable to play in Friday's game versus the Heat.

Murray is questionable to miss his second straight game after missing Wednesday's back-to-back with left knee injury management. Bones Hyland will likely remain in the starting lineup if the starting guard can't suit up Friday.

Murray (knee) won't play in Wednesday's game against Sacramento, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

The Nuggets are giving Murray a game off as they try to ease the guard's workload back to normal following his left knee injury. With Murray absent Wednesday, Bones Hyland and Christian Braun are candidates to see increased run against the Kings.

Murray is listed as questionable to play in Wednesday's game versus the Kings due to left knee injury management.

Murray is likely deemed questionable because Wednesday is the second night of a back-to-back. The Nuggets also held out the star guard on Nov. 23 in the same scenario. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if Murray is ultimately ruled out.

Murray finished Tuesday's 113-106 win over the Kings with 25 points (7-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 8-8 FT), seven assists, five rebounds and two steals across 38 minutes.

After an uncharacteristic six-point outing on 2-for-11 shooting from the field Dec. 18 against the Hornets, Murray proceeded to miss the Nuggets' following game due days later due to left knee injury recovery. He's since suited up for each of the past three contests and has re-emerged as a model of consistency on the offensive end, scoring either 25 or 26 points in those outings while shooting 45.1 percent from the field and 86.4 percent from the free-throw line. Murray has also picked up two steals in each of those contests, bringing his average up to an even 1.0 per game for the season. Considering Murray has yet to play both halves of a back-to-back set this season, he could sit Wednesday in Sacramento, though the Nuggets haven't yet clarified their plans for him.

Murray closed Sunday's 128-125 overtime victory over the Suns with 26 points (7-19 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals across 43 minutes.

Murray wasn't very efficient from the field, but he still posted a strong fantasy line thanks to his contributions in other categories and the fact that he cleared the 20-point mark -- something he has now accomplished in three of his last four games. He's the team's second-best offensive option behind Nikola Jokic and has performed as such, averaging 18.5 points, 7.0 assists and 4.1 rebounds per game in December. Those numbers are even better considering that Murray missed the entire 2021-22 season due to injury.

Murray (foot) is listed as available for Sunday night's game against the Suns.

Murray was probable coming into the day, so the expectation all along was that he'd be cleared to play in the finale of the NBA's five-game Christmas Day slate. Murray missed a game last week against Memphis, but including that contest he's appeared in 12 of the Nuggets' last 13 games. During that span, Murray is posting 19.8 points, 6.8 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 2.2 made threes per game.

Murray is probable to play in Sunday's matchup with the Lakers due to left foot inflammation.

Murray is coming off one of his best games of his season Friday. The star guard is averaging 17.8 points, 8.0 assists and 4.4 rebounds in 35.2 minutes across his last five appearances. With Murray expected to suit up Sunday, the Nuggets should be at nearly full strength.

Murray registered 25 points (9-17 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), eight rebounds, 12 assists and two steals across 39 minutes during Friday's 120-107 victory over the Trail Blazers.

Murray scored only six points in the first half on 3-of-7 shooting from the field but made his presence felt elsewhere, dishing nine assists to go along with four rebounds and two steals. He came out firing in the second half, knocking down five of six shots for 12 points during a 35-point quarter for the Nuggets before chipping in another seven in the final period. The Denver point guard led the game with 12 dimes and now has back-to-back games with double-digit assists.

Murray (knee) will play in Friday's game against the Trail Blazers, Mike Singer of The Denver Postreports.

Murray missed Denver's most recent contest but will be able to return for Friday's tilt against Portland. His availability aligns with Michael Porter's (heel) return, who may steal some usage from Murray despite Porter being under a minutes restriction. Christian Braun also will likely be bumped back to the second unit Friday.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

Murray was sidelined for Tuesday's game against Memphis but was a full participant during Thursday's practice session that didn't include any live portions. He'll be re-evaluated after the Nuggets' shootaround Friday, but he'll have a chance to suit up against Portland.

Murray (knee) won't play in Tuesday's game against Memphis, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray, who is dealing with a left knee injury, will officially miss his first contest since Nov. 23 against the Thunder. Thus, Bones Hyland will presumably garner the start at point guard with veteran Ish Smith helping off the bench. Murray will likely be deemed questionable once again for the Nuggets' next matchup Friday against Portland.

Murray is listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Grizzlies due to left knee injury management.

Murray was recently dealing with a sprained ankle, but he'll now be in danger of sitting out to rest his surgically repaired left knee. Over his past three contests, the point guard has averaged just 11.3 points while shooting 36.4 percent from the field, so a night off could be advantageous for Murray's overall production moving forward.

Murray (ankle) will be available for Sunday's game against Charlotte.

Murray was probable coming into the day so there was never much doubt that he'd be cleared to play. The Kentucky product is coming off of a 23-point, five-rebound, six-assist effort in 36 minutes against the Lakers on Friday.

Murray has been listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Hornets due to a left ankle sprain.

The injury does not appear serious, and the probable tag suggests Murray shouldn't have problems playing on Sunday. That said, the Nuggets are being extremely cautious with their star point guard, given his injury history. Murray is averaging 18.0 points, 5.2 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game this season.

Murray recorded five points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds and six assists over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 141-128 win over the Wizards.

Murray posted season-lows in points and field-goal attempts Wednesday. The 25-year-old guard showed he can take a backseat role in the Nuggets' offense as the team cruised to a 13-point victory. However, fantasy managers shouldn't be worried, as Murray was averaging 22.8 points across his previous eight games.

Murray chipped in 30 points (13-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and five assists over 36 minutes during Saturday's 115-110 win over the Jazz.

Murray dropped at least 30 points for just the second time this season, powering the Nuggets to victory. After a few inefficient performances, it was nice to see the shots dropping for Murray. He has been a fringe top-60 player over the past month, a range he should be able to occupy moving forward. Interestingly, he is averaging a career-high 6.0 assists over that same period, an element of his game that could vault him into the top 50 quite easily.

Murray (knee) is in the starting five for Saturday's matchup with the Jazz.

Murray has been upgraded from probable to available for Saturday's game. Murray is shooting 16-of-49 from the field over his last three games.

Murray is probable for Saturday's game against the Jazz due to a left knee contusion.

Murray has appeared in the last seven games, and he'll likely be able to play through his knee injury Saturday. Over his last seven appearances, he's averaged 21.1 points, 5.9 assists and 3.7 rebounds in 31.6 minutes per game.

Murray totaled 21 points (8-21 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Thursday's 121-120 win over the Trail Blazers.

Murray capped off a strong performance Thursday by connecting on the game-winning 3-pointer. After easing his way back to begin the season, Murray has quickly rediscovered some of his best form, putting up to 60 value over the past month. His efficiency from the field remains somewhat of an issue, the only real negative we have seen of late. Given the sample size, there is no reason to think Murray won't be able to flirt with top 50 value the rest of the way.

Murray closed Tuesday's 116-115 loss to the Mavericks with 11 points (2-11 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 7-9 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal across 30 minutes.

Murray connected on just two field goals in the one-point loss, his fewest makes this season. Over his last two appearances, he's shooting just 28.6 percent from the field, averaging 14.5 points during that stretch. The dynamic point guard will look to breakout of his two-game slump Thursday against Portland.

Murray chipped in 18 points (6-17 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two blocks in 33 minutes during Sunday's 121-106 loss to New Orleans.

Murrray connected on a team-high mark from three, finishing third on the team in scoring in Sunday's defeat. Murray tallied his 16th straight game in double figures, having scored 15 or more points 12 times this year.

Murray logged 20 points (7-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Friday's 117-109 loss to the Hawks.

Murray continues to start despite dealing with a quadriceps injury, and the star point guard has managed to remain effective while operating in his usual role as Denver's second-best offensive threat behind Nikola Jokic. Murray has reached the 20-point mark in his last four appearances while shooting 53.7 percent from the field and 46.4 percent from three-point range during that span.

Murray (quadriceps) will start Friday against the Hawks.

Murray was downgraded to questionable earlier Friday due to a quadriceps injury, but he'll still be able to take his usual spot in Denver's starting lineup. Over his past three appearances, the point guard has averaged 26.0 points, 5.3 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 30.0 minutes per game.

Murray (quadriceps) will play Friday against the Hawks.

Murray was downgraded to questionable earlier in the day but will give it a go Friday. With Bones Hyland (illness) also active we should see the normal backcourt rotation.

Murray (quadriceps) was downgraded to questionable ahead of Friday's game against Atlanta.

Murray was initially listed as probable for Friday's matchup, but he's trending in the wrong direction a few hours before tipoff. If he's unavailable against the Hawks, Ish Smith will likely see increased playing time.

Murray is probable for Friday's game at Atlanta due to a bruised right quad.

After a choppy October, Murray has been more consistent this month. In 11 November appearances, he's averaged 20.0 points on 46/40/84 percent shooting, 5.7 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 31.1 minutes. The quad issue isn't expected to slow him down Friday.

Murray closed with 26 points (9-15 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 120-100 win over Houston.

Murray had lots of consistency issues in the opening weeks of the season, but that was to be expected considering he didn't play at all during the 2021-22 campaign while rehabbing from an ACL injury. The point guard is starting to find his rhythm, however, and he's now scored at least 20 points in three games in a row for the first time in the current season. Murray averaged 20.0 points, 5.7 assists and 4.3 rebounds per game across 11 appearances in November.

Murray accumulated 31 points (11-17 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal in 25 minutes during Monday's 129-113 victory over the Rockets.

Murray was highly efficient on the evening, knocking down a season-high 11 shots from the field despite a regular shot volume. Given that fact, it doesn't seem likely Murray will repeat Monday's effort consistently, though he does have numerous 20-plus point outings so far. Murray hasn't quite been on the same fanasy level as his last full season in 2020-21, but he has plenty of time to make up some ground and is certainly worthy of rostering.

Murray provided 21 points (9-21 FG, 3-9 3Pt), six rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Friday's 114-104 victory over the Clippers.

Murray was just getting back up to speed when he ran into the COVID-19 protocol, but he should be back to a full load after logging 34 minutes in Friday's win. The Nuggets look markedly better with their elite guard back in the lineup this year and are currently second in the West behind the Suns.

Murray (conditioning) is available for Friday's game against the Clippers.

Murray has missed three of the past four games due to COVID-19 protocols and subsequent conditioning concerns, but he'll be good to go Friday. This month, he's averaging 17.8 points, 5.9 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 31.5 minutes.

Murray (conditioning) is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder, Katy Winge of AltitudeTV reports.

Murray won't play Wednesday after playing 34 minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Pistons. Murray is still trying to regain his conditioning after missing two games with COVID-19. Bruce Brown will likely start in his place against the Thunder.

Murray is questionable for Wednesday's game at Oklahoma City due to conditioning concerns.

After a two-game absence, Murray surprisingly returned Tuesday and shot a poor 3-for-12 in 34 minutes during the loss to the Pistons. He may need some more time off due to conditioning issues. Nikola Jokic is also questionable for the same reason, while Michael Porter is questionable due to a heel issue and Bones Hyland (illness) is out.

Murray (COVID-19 protocols) tallied 10 points (3-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight assists, two steals, one rebound and one block across 34 minutes in Tuesday's 110-108 loss to the Pistons.

The Nuggets returned two key starters from the NBA's health and safety protocols Tuesday, as Murray and two-time MVP Nikola Jokic returned from two- and three-game absences, respectively. While Jokic (31 points on 12-for-16 shooting from the field) looked like his usual self in his return, Murray exhibited more rust. Murray at least made up for the poor shooting by thriving as a passer while contributing in the defensive categories. After missing all of the 2021-22 season while recovering from a torn ACL, Murray is averaging 16.1 points, 4.7 assists, 3.7 rebounds, 1.6 three-pointers and 1.1 steals in 29.4 minutes per game in his first 14 outings of 2022-23.

Murray (COVID-19 protocols) is active for Tuesday's game against the Pistons, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Both Murray and Nikola Jokic will return to the lineup after missing the past few games while being in the league's health and safety protocols. Murray will presumably resume his normal starting role which will push Bruce Brown back to the bench. Across 13 previous starts, the Kentucky product has averaged 16.5 points and 4.5 assists.

Nuggets coach Mike Malone said Murray (Covid-19) cleared health and safety protocols and will warm up ahead of Tuesday's game versus the Pistons, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Coach Malone emphasized that just because Murray cleared protocols doesn't mean he will necessarily play. Murray will be a game-time decision but should be good to go Wednesday if he can't play against the Pistons.

Murray (COVID-19 protocols) has been upgraded to questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pistons.

Both Murray and Nikola Jokic (COVID-19 protocols) have been upgraded. If one, or both, play, they could be on a minutes limit.

Murray (COVID-19 protocols) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Pistons, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray has missed the last two games due to the league's health and safety protocols and will likely be unavailable once again Tuesday. Bruce Brown should maintain a starting role if Murray remains out.

Coach Mike Malone didn't include Murray (COVID-19 protocols) as a player who could return ahead of Sunday's game versus the Mavericks when discussing it in the postgame press conference Friday.

Murray appears headed for his second consecutive absence while working through the league's health and safety protocols, making Tuesday's game versus Detroit his next opportunity to take the floor. Bruce Brown replaced him in the starting lineup Friday and will presumably draw another start at point guard Sunday.

Murray is out Friday against the Mavericks due to health and safety protocols.

The Nuggets appear to be dealing with a COVID-19 issue within the team, and both Murray and Nikola Jokic are out due to protocols. Bones Hyland should see plenty of extra usage in Murray's stead.

Murray racked up 23 points (9-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 32 minutes during Sunday's 126-103 victory over the Bulls.

Murray struggled a bit from deep, but other than that, he delivered a strong scoring performance in a game where the Nuggets dominated with ease. The athletic point guard is still shaking off some rust after missing the entire 2021-22 season while rehabbing from a knee injury, so it'd be unwise to expect the same numbers he had prior to the injury, but he has settled well as a secondary scoring option behind the likes of NIkola Jokic and Michael Porter. He's averaging 17.4 points per game over his last five appearances.

Murray amassed 14 points (6-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and 10 assists across 35 minutes during Friday's 131-112 loss to the Celtics.

Murray needed 17 shots from the field to score 14 points, and he's now 12-for-32 over his last two contests. Despite this, he's finished in double figures in each of his last eight contests and continues to prove how valuable he is to his fantasy managers in the assist column following a sluggish start to the 2022-23 campaign.

Murray had 24 points (8-19 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Thursday's 122-110 victory over the Thunder.

Murray notched season-high totals in both minutes played and points scored Thursday, a good sign that he is nearing full health. It's been somewhat of a slow start for Murray, currently ranked outside the top 200. However, he has now scored at least 20 points in two straight games, playing at least 30 minutes in both. Managers will be hoping that this is a sign of things to come with his next opportunity coming this Saturday against the Spurs.

Murray contributed 21 points (9-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt), four rebounds and five assists in 32 minutes during Sunday's 121-110 loss to the Lakers.

Murray surpassed the 20-point mark for the first time this season, posting a new season-high total while finishing second on the team in scoring in Sunday's defeat. Murray has reached double figures in scoring in five of six contests this year.

Murray contributed 13 points (6-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists and two steals across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 110-99 win over the Lakers.

The team is bringing Murray along slowly, and we are probably still a couple of weeks off from seeing him in the 30-minute range. As a ball distributor, Murray appears to be almost 100 percent, but he's still working out some kinks with his shot. We should see marked improvement from Murray as the season progresses.

Murray notched eight points (3-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 27 minutes during Monday's 135-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Murray struggled from inside the arc Monday, connecting on just one of eight shots, en route to his first single-digit point output of the campaign. After not playing at all last season due to a torn ACL, the dynamic guard will likely have occasional hiccups while shaking off the rust. However, the encouraging sign is that Murray has played at least 26 minutes in each of his first three appearances of the campaign, so when he's available, he should get plenty of opportunities to produce like he did before his devastating knee injury.

Murray (rest/knee) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Thunder.

Murray sat out Friday's game against the Warriors due to injury management, but he's ready to return here in Denver's home opener. He posted 12 points, two rebounds, two steals and one assist in the season opener, but his numbers should improve as he shakes off the rust.

Murray (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Thunder, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.

Murray sat out Friday's 128-123 win over the Warriors due to left knee injury management. In the opener, he posted 12 points, two rebounds, two steals and one assist in 26 minutes.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Thunder.

Murray sat out Friday's 128-123 win over the Warriors due to left knee injury management. If he's out again Saturday, look for Bruce Brown to draw another start. Friday, Brown played 30 minutes and posted 20 points, five assists, one rebound and one steal.

Murray (knee) will not play in Friday's matchup with the Warriors due to left knee injury management, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Murray missed the entire 2021-22 season due to an ACL tear, so the team is going to ease him back into the swing of things as the season progresses. No surprise, as the team is playing the front end of a back-to-back set. Look for him to return to the lineup in Saturday's game against the Thunder. He recorded 12 points (5-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals across 26 minutes in Wednesday's 123-102 loss to the Jazz.

Murray sports a questionable designation due to left knee injury management.

Murray dealt with a hamstring issue during the preseason but was cleared to take part in the season opener. It's unclear if the knee issue is related, but he'll likely rest it overnight before the team decides on his status for the contest. If he can't go, Ish Smith and Bones Hyland are candidates to grab some extra playing time.

Murray chipped in 12 points (5-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 123-102 loss to the Jazz.

This was Murray's first game since the 2020-21 season, so the rust is to be expected, particularly from the scoring perspective since he needed 13 shots just to score 12 points while failing to contribute significantly in other categories. This shouldn't be a trend going forward, though, and the star point guard should only get better as the season progresses and as he gets more games under his belt.

Murray (hamstring) is in the starting lineup Wednesday versus Utah, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.

Murray will start his first game back since the 2020-21 season. The guard posted 21.2 points, 4.8 assists and 4.0 rebounds across 48 starts during that campaign.

Murray (hamstring) is facing a "hard minutes resection" for Wednesday's season-opening matchup versus Utah, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Although vague, coach Michael Malone stated that Murray will play in the second half despite not playing a single minute in the second half in the preseason. It definitely appears that, despite the season beginning, the Nuggets are in no hurry to rush back their star guard due to their championship aspirations. They'll instead ease him back into the rotation.

Murray (hamstring) will play in Wednesday's season opener against the Jazz, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray's hamstring injury prevented him from playing in Denver's final three preseason games, but the guard is ready to go for his first regular-season action since April of 2021. Don't be surprised if he sees a muted workload as he gets eased back into things.

Murray (hamstring) was a full participant in Monday's practice session, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray was unavailable for the Nuggets' final three preseason games due to a sore left hamstring, but he's trending in the right direction ahead of Wednesday's regular-season opener. It wouldn't be surprising to see the 25-year-old face a minutes restriction early in the year, especially after he missed all of last season due to an ACL injury.

Murray (hamstring) is expected to suit up for the Nuggets' season opener against the Jazz, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray could have suited up in the Nuggets' preseason finale against Golden State, but Coach Mike Malone decided to play it safe so that he'll be fully ready to go against Utah. After missing all of last season to an ACL injury, erring on the side of caution was the smart move. Expect Murray to play a key role for Denver this season as the second offensive option.

Murray (hamstring) will not play in the Nuggets' preseason finale versus the Warrriors, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray was listed as questionable heading into the contest and the Nuggets will opt to err on the side of caution. His status for the team's regular season opener against the Jazz on Wednesday is uncertain. He is returning from an ACL injury that sidelined him for the entire 2021-22 campaign, so expect the team to continue excercising caution as the season tips off.

Murray (hamstring) is listed as questionable for the Nuggets' final preseason game against the Warriors on Friday, Adam Mares of DenverStiffs.com reports.

Murray missed the Nuggets' last two preseason games with a hamstring injury and could potentially miss Denver's preseason finale. Expect Ish Smith and Bruce Brown to see increased workloads if Murray can't play.

Murray (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's preseason game against the Clippers, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray will miss a second consecutive preseason contest as he continues to deal with left hamstring tightness. The injury isn't considered to be serious, so it's possible Murray will return for Denver's preseason finale against the Warriors on Friday.

Murray (hamstring) was listed as questionable for Wednesday's preseason matchup with the Clippers, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports

Murray missed Monday's preseason contest and is now questionable for Wednesday due to left hamstring tightness. There is no indication that the start guard will miss any regular season action. With Murray and Bones Hyland both questionable for Wednesday's game, Ish Smith and Bruce Brown are in line for increased workloads.

Murray (thigh) won't play in Monday's preseason game against Phoenix, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray was previously listed as questionable due to a minor thigh issue, and it's not surprising to see that he's been ruled out as a precaution. Bones Hyland and Ish Smith should see considerable run Monday night in Murray's absence.

Murray (thigh) is listed as questionable for Monday's preseason game against Phoenix, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

In spite of Murray's questionable designation on Denver's injury report, coach Michael Murray said Sunday that the point guard is doubtful to play. It wouldn't be surprising to see the Nuggets take a cautious approach for Monday's exhibition matchup, while Murray will have two more opportunities to suit up during the preseason if he's ultimately held out Monday.

Nuggets head coach Michael Malone said Murray (thigh) is doubtful for Monday's preseason contest against the Suns, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray left Friday's preseason game against the Bulls due to left thigh soreness and will likely be sidelined for at least one additional contest. After Monday's matchup, the Nuggets have two more preseason games before they open the regular season against the Jazz on Oct. 19, but it's unclear if Murray will be available for any of those contests.

Murray won't return to Friday's preseason game against the Bulls due to left thigh soreness, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

The extent of the issue remains unclear, but his removal may have been simply precautionary. After Friday's game, the Nuggets will have three more preseason games before they open the regular season against the Jazz on Oct. 19.

Nuggets coach Mike Malone said that Murray will likely play into the third quarter in Friday's preseason matchup with the Bulls, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray only played 15 minutes in Monday's preseason game against the Thunder. This will likely be boosted to the mid-twenties Friday, as Murray attempts to regain his form after missing all of the 2021-22 season with a torn ACL.

Murray posted 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two rebounds and two assists over 15 minutes in Monday's preseason defeat to the Thunder.

It was a triumphant return to the court for Murray, who missed all of last season while recovering from a torn ACL. The point guard didn't show much rust on his shot, making two of his three tries from deep. It's fair to expect Murray to need some time to be fully ramped up after the extended absence, but he enjoyed his best season in 2020-21 and could be a steal as a mid-round pick in fantasy drafts.

Murray (knee) is starting Monday's preseason opener against the Thunder.

Murray has been on the mend since suffering a torn ACL in April of 2021, and the star has been able to stick to his desired timeline, stating in mid-August that he was aiming for a return in the preseason opener. The Nuggets are to monitor Murray closely in his first live action since suffering the injury, though it's unclear what type of minute restriction he'll be on Monday evening.

Murray (knee) is starting Monday's preseason opener against the Thunder.

Murray has been on the mend since suffering a torn ACL in April of 2021, and the star has been able to stick to his desired timeline, stating in mid-August that he was aiming for a return in the preseason opener. The Nuggets figure to monitor Murray closely in his first live action since suffering the injury, though it's unclear as to why type of minute restriction he'll be on Monday evening.

Murray (knee) said Monday that he's planning to make his return to game action during the Nuggets' first preseason contest on Oct. 7, Roy Ward of The Age reports.

Speaking at the opening of an NBA Store in Australia, Murray told local reporters that he continues to progress in his recovery and anticipates being on the floor when Denver kicks off its preseason schedule in Chicago against the Bulls. A torn ACL suffered in April of 2021 wiped out Murray's entire 2021-22 campaign, and it's been a long road back for the dynamic guard out of Kentucky. Initially, it appeared as though Murray may be able to return toward the end of last season, but he struggled to gain full confidence in the knee and ultimately did not rejoin the Nuggets before they were eliminated by the Warriors in Round 1 of the playoffs. Now roughly 16 months removed from the injury, Murray will still need to prove that he's back to his old self, so he'll likely come at a slight discount in early fantasy drafts.

General manager Calvin Booth intimated Monday that he believes Murray will be healthy to start the season, Sam Amico of Hoops Wire reports.

This news isn't too surprising given that Murray was practicing 5-on-5 with the Nuggets' Summer League team earlier this month. He missed the entire 2021-22 campaign while recovering from a torn ACL suffered in April of 2021. Fantasy managers should be wary of Murray potentially sitting out back-to-backs and being a little rusty, but he's still one of the better starting point guards in the NBA. Two seasons ago, he averaged 21.2 points, 4.8 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 35.5 minutes.

Murray (knee) took part in a 5-on-5 practice with the Nuggets' summer league team Tuesday, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

Murray missed the entirety of the 2021-22 campaign while recovering from a torn ACL, which he sustained in April of 2021. Initially, the guard was expected to return before the end of the regular season, but he appeared to encounter some issues regaining full confidence in the surgically repaired left knee. Now 14 months removed from the injury, Murray went through a full session Tuesday, which coach Michael Malone called "probably the most serious 5-on-5" he's played during the entire rehab process. "He looked mobile, agile and hostile," Malone continued. "He looked confident. That's the most important thing to me. I wasn't charting the makes and misses. I was trying to see the confidence level."

Murray (knee) is not expected to return during the playoffs, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

This is a tough blow for the Nuggets, as Murray will likely end up missing the entire 2021-22 campaign after tearing his ACL in April of last season. The focus will now presumably be getting him on the right track to return first thing during next season's training camp. Michael Porter (back) is also not expected to return during the playoffs.

Nuggets coach Michael Malone said Sunday that Murray (knee) is "not close" to rejoining the team's lineup, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

Murray was back with the Nuggets on Sunday after a stint with the Grand Rapids Drive during which he practiced with the Nuggets' G League affiliate. All indications are that Murray continues to make progress as he works back from a torn ACL, but Malone's words Sunday are not the most encouraging update. There's still hope that the star guard could be back before the end of the regular season, but with only three weeks remaining, that's far from a guarantee.

Murray (knee) will practice with the Nuggets' G League affiliate this week, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

While the Nuggets have been hesitant to put any timetable on Murray's recovery from a torn left ACL, he looks to be nearing the final stages. Denver officially assigned Murray to the G League on Tuesday with the expectation that he'll practice with Grand Rapids on Wednesday and Saturday while the Nuggets are in the midst of a three-game road swing. We should have some more clarity on Murray's timeline once he rejoins the Nuggets -- presumably on Sunday -- but it remains to be seen whether or not he'll be able to log any NBA game action before the conclusion of the regular season.

The Nuggets have growing optimism that Murray (knee) will be ready to make his 2021-22 season debut prior to the start of the playoffs, Sam Amick of The Athletic reports.

Murray, who tore the ACL in his left knee last April, is still in rehab mode following surgery, but Denver coaches and members of the training staff have been encouraged by how the 25-year-old has looked during his recent workouts. While Denver has yet to pinpoint a precise timeline for Murray to resume playing, a target date could become more clear once he graduates from shooting and conditioning drills to non-contact practice. Whenever he's deemed ready to make his season debut, Murray will likely face limitations with his playing time and could sit out one half of back-to-back sets, so whenever he returns, he shouldn't be expected to immediately produce at the level he did in 2020-21.

Murray (knee) is expected to receive physical clearance to return to game action before the end of the regular season, a source familiar with his rehab program tells Mike Singer of The Denver News.

Murray, who recently overcame a bout with COVID-19, has been sidelined all season while recovering from surgery to address a torn ACL in his left knee. Though he sustained the injury in mid-April of 2021 before undergoing surgery soon after, the Nuggets apparently have optimism that the 24-year-old will make his way back into the lineup in less than a full year. In his report, Singer notes that Murray's rehab process has been more difficult from a mental standpoint than a physical one, as he's never contended with a major injury at any point in his career. As such, Denver likely won't push Murray to get back on the court until he's fully comfortable, even if doctors give him the green light beforehand. Since Murray's recovery timeline is still fairly nebulous, he can't be counted on to be back for the fantasy playoffs for most head-to-head leagues.

Murray (knee) was placed in the NBA's health and safety protocols Friday, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray is still out and rehabbing from ACL surgery, so this move is more of a housekeeping note than anything. However, the star point guard will have to test out of protocols before returning to team facilities to continue his rehab. It still remains to be seen if Murray will return early enough in the season to make any sort of fantasy impact.

Murray (knee) is progressing in his rehab from a torn ACL but remains without a timetable, David Aldridge of The Athletic reports.

It's been roughly five months since Murray underwent surgery, and while he's still a ways away from returning to game action, Aldridge notes that the Nuggets are "very happy with Murray's progress and rehab." Given Murray's age and work ethic, it would not be a surprise if he's ahead of schedule, though it remains to be seen if he'll return early enough in the season to make any sort of fantasy impact. For now, Murray is probably only worth a late-round flier in leagues that include multiple IR spots.

Murray (knee) has progressed to shooting and at least light running.

While the Nuggets haven't provided an official update on Murray's progress, the team shared a photo of him mid-shot and mid-jog at the team facility. Optimistically, Murray could be back as soon as January if his rehab goes great and the team isn't overly cautious. More information should arrive as the start of the season draws closer.

Murray was diagnosed with a torn ACL in his left knee on Tuesday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

The worst fears were realized for Murray, as he will now have to miss extensive time after he suffered the injury late in Monday's loss to Golden State. Prior to Monday's game, the 24-year-old point guard had missed the previous four outings due to right knee soreness, but he had extremely bad luck in his return after posting 17 points across 33 minutes. With Murray out for the season, Monte Morris and Facundo Campazzo will likely see increases to their workloads going forward.

Nuggets head coach Michael Malone said after Monday's 116-107 loss to the Warriors that Murray would undergo an MRI on the left knee injury he suffered in the final minute of the contest, The Athletic reports.

While an initial diagnosis for Murray's injury hasn't been provided, the Nuggets and fantasy managers should be preparing for him to miss some time. The point guard, who had missed the previous four games with soreness in his right knee, collapsed to the floor with 50.6 seconds remaining when he planted hard on his left foot while attempting a layup. He remained on the ground for several moments clutching his knee before requiring assistance to the locker room. An update on Murray's condition should be provided later Tuesday, but assuming he misses time, the Nuggets would likely turn to Facundo Campazzo and Monte Morris to serve as the team's primary facilitators along with center Nikola Jokic.

Murray finished with 17 points (5-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, four assists, three steals and one block in 33 minutes during Monday's 116-107 loss to the Warriors.

Murray returned after a four-game absence and came through with a very solid fantasy line. Unfortunately, he suffered an injury to his left knee in the final seconds of the game. While the severity of the injury has not yet been disclosed, the fact it was a non-contact injury does not bode well for his immediate playing future. If worst fears are realized, there is a chance Murray could miss the remainder of the season. Of course, this is just speculation at this point and so GMs will likely want to wait for confirmation before making any moves. In the event he misses a significant period of time, both Monte Morris and Facundo Campazzo would be likely to shift up the pecking order.

Murray (knee) will play Monday against the Warriors, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray has missed the last four games due to soreness in his right knee, but he's available to play Monday. His return will likely send Facundo Campazzo back to the bench.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Monday's game at Golden State.

The 24-year-old sat out his fourth straight game Sunday due to right knee soreness, and his availability remains in question for the second half of the back-to-back set. Facundo Campazzo could receive another start at the point if Murray is sidelined again Monday.

Murray (knee) will not play Sunday against Boston, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray will miss his fourth game in row due to soreness in his right knee, and Monte Morris and Facundo Campazzo will continue to benefit from his absence. The team plays again Monday against Golden State, and Murray should be considered questionable for that game at this point.

Murray's absence will mark his third consecutive game missed. In his absence, look for Monte Morris to again handle the majority of point guard duties for the Nuggets, while Facundo Campazzo should provide depth off the bench. The star guard's next chance to return will come Sunday versus the Celtics.

Murray (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Spurs, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

A sore right knee has kept Murray out of the last two games -- both Nuggets victories -- and the team will continue to monitor his status over the next 24-plus hours. Monte Morris started Tuesday's game against the Pistons, while Facundo Campazzo got the nod in Murray's place Wednesday against the Spurs.

Murry (knee) is unavailable for Wednesday's game against the Spurs, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Due to right knee soreness, Murray will miss his first game since Feb. 6. In his absence, Facundo Campazzo and Monte Morris should see extra minutes.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Detroit, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray has only missed two games so far this season, but he's uncertain for the first half of the team's back-to-back due to soreness in his right knee. It wouldn't be too surprising to see the 24-year-old point guard get a game off when also considering the condensed schedule in the second half of the season. If he's sidelined, Facundo Campazzo and Monte Morris would likely be looking at increased roles.

Murray posted 23 points (9-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, and two assists across 39 minutes in Thursday's 101-94 win over the Clippers.

Murray also scored 23 points when he played the Clippers on Christmas Day, but this time around, Denver was able to hand them a loss that was more decisive than it looked on paper. Behind Murray's leadership at point guard, the Nuggets surged to a big lead very early and led for the duration of the game. The addition of Aaron Gordon has added another weapon to Denver's vast arsenal, giving Murray one more way to deliver a win.

Murray collected 30 points (12-24 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, four assists and three steals in a 104-95 victory over the 76ers on Tuesday.

Murray had a very efficient offensive performance which led to his ninth 30-plus point scoring game of the season. Over his last eight games, the guard has averaged 23.4 points per game on 52.1 percent shooting from the field and 49.1 percent shooting from three. Murray has also been contributing strong defensive stats over that span, averaging 2.1 steals per game.

Murray posted 17 points (7-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four assists, two rebounds, a steal and a blocked shot across 31 minutes in Sunday's 126-102 win over the Hawks.

The Nuggets followed a balanced game script Sunday, as every member of the starting five scored in double-digits. It's a credit to Murray's ability to facilitate an offensive engine that just acquired a shiny new piece in Aaron Gordon. The new-look lineup made a statement in the West with this convincing win over a much-improved Atlanta team, and the new addition will give Murray one more weapon to his arsenal of talent.

Murray compiled 23 points (10-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 11 assists, three rebounds and a steal across 39 minutes in Friday's win over the Pelicans.

Murray had a rough four-game stretch where he couldn't score 20 points between Mar. 12 and Mar. 17, but he has bounced back with five straight 20-point outings while showing an excellent shooting touch. Murray has made 51 percent of his field-goal attempts over that aforementioned five-game stretch, so it's safe to say his struggles have been left in the rearview for good.

Murray tallied 20 points (8-17 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven assists, two rebounds and one steal in 34 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Raptors.

The 24-year-old kept his four-game 20-plus points streak alive despite the lopsided loss on Wednesday. Murray is averaging 24.5 points, 5.3 assists, 3.5 three-pointers and 2.0 steals over his last four games. He will look to extend his 20-plus scoring streak Friday when the Nuggets play the Pelicans in New Orleans.

Murray scored 21 points (8-21 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT) to go along with four rebounds, four assists and two steals across 38 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Magic.

Murray entered the game on a strong stretch of scoring efficiently, but faced some struggles Tuesday. Even so, he topped 20 points for the third consecutive contest as he led the team with 21 shots from the field. Murray also recorded multiple steals for the third time in his last four games, and he is averaging a career-high 1.3 per contest on the season.

Murray scored 23 points (9-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding seven assists, three rebounds and a steal in 35 minutes during Sunday's 113-108 loss to the Pelicans.

The 24-year-old was sluggish coming out of the All-Star break, averaging only 12.0 points over his first four games back, but Murray has now woken up with a combined 57 points in the last two contests. He remains on track for career highs in points, field-goal percentage, made three-pointers and steals as he gives Denver a strong second option behind Nikola Jokic.

Murray closed with 34 points (12-20 FG, 6-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five assists, four steals and two rebounds in 42 minutes during Friday's 131-127 victory over the Bulls.

Murray calmly sent the game into overtime with a dagger from the corner as the Nuggets overcame a sizeable deficit against the Bulls. Not only was it a strong shooting night for Murray but he was also able to chip in a season-high four steals. Despite a season littered with inconsistent performances, Murray remains an elite scoring option across all formats and should be set for a strong finish to the regular season.

Murray totaled 19 points (7-13 FG, 5-11 3Pt), five assists, four steals and two rebounds in a 129-104 victory over the Hornets on Wednesday.

Murray came away with a new season-high steals total despite not playing in the fourth quarter. The guard was his usual, efficient self in the Nuggets' dominant victory, shooting 53.8 percent from the field and making a game-high five threes. It was Murray's fourth game of the season in which he made at least five threes, and he has been a consistent scoring option behind Nikola Jokic for Denver this season.

Murray finished with 16 points (6-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight assists and six boards in Monday's win over Indiana.

Coming off of a pair of rough shooting nights (combined 5-of-27 FG), Murray finally got back on track Monday, adding his most combined rebounds-plus-assists (14) in any game since Feb. 17. The guard continues to be among the league's streakiest players, but on the whole he remains a strong source of efficient scoring (20.8 PPG), while adding solid contributions in assists (4.7 APG), steals (1.1 SPG) and three-pointers (career-high 2.6 3PM/G).

Murray had just three points (1-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt), to go with five assists, three rebounds and two steals, in Friday's win over Memphis.

The Nuggets were able to pull out a one-point victory, but Murray didn't do much to help the cause, as he had his worst shooting night of the season to kick off the second half. The point guard went 0-of-9 from two-point range, with his only field goal coming from beyond the arc. He also failed to get to the free throw line for the first time since Feb. 19.

Murray scored 24 points (8-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT) to go along with two rebonds, three assists and one block across 36 minutes in Monday's win over the Bulls.

Murray has been electric since missing one game on Feb. 6 due to a lingering knee injury. In 12 games since, he's averaged 26.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.2 steals while shooting 52.6 percent from the field. While he was overshadowed by another outstanding performance from Nikola Jokic on Monday, Murray has proven capable of taking both his volume and efficiency to another level this season.

Murray had 34 points (12-23 FG, 6-11 3pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, six assists and two blocks in Thursday's loss to Washington.

Murray played a game-high 42 minutes -- his most in any game since he saw 43 minutes in a win over Phoenix back on Jan. 23. With six makes on 11 attempts, the Kentucky product continues to be red-hot from three-point range, as he's hit at least three three-pointers one each of his last eight games. In that span, Murray is shooting north of 48 percent from deep.

Murray recorded 24 points (7-18 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight assists, five rebounds, two steals and one block in 38 minutes during Tuesday's 111-106 win against the Trail Blazers.

Murray put together one of his best all-around performances of the season Tuesday, scoring an efficient 24 points and coming up just one assist shy of matching his season high. Murray has taken his game to another level lately. In the six performances leading up to Tuesday, Murray averaged 31.2 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.7 steals. It seems possible he has finally broken out of his inconsistent play and could be establishing a reliable floor.

Murray had 30 points (11-20 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals in Sunday's loss to Atlanta.

Murray's scoring binge continued, but it was too little too late for Denver, which fell behind by 17 points entering the fourth quarter. Murray reached the 30-point mark for the third straight game, and he's now topped 20 points in each of his last six appearances.

Murray scored 50 points (21-25 FG, 8-10 3Pt) to go along with six rebounds, two assists and two steals across 38 minutes in Friday's win over the Cavaliers.

Murray's 50 points were a career high, and he did so by shooting incredibly well from the field and three-point range. The performance continued a strong scoring run for him, as he's now topped 20 points in each of his last five games and has averaged 31.4 points in that span. In addition to his impressive scoring, Murray now has multiple steals in three of his last five games and is averaging over 1.1 steals per game for the campaign.

Murray had 35 points (13-25 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine rebounds, six assists, one steal and one block in 40 minutes during Wednesday's 130-128 loss to the Wizards.

The 23-year-old came up one rebound short of a double-double for the second time this season, and he to great care of the ball with only one turnover. Murray was 1-for-13 from deep over the previous two games, but his five three-pointers Wednesday set a season high.

Murray scored 25 points (9-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT) to go along with six rebounds, six assists and three steals across 33 minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Celtics.

Denver was without several of its ball-handlers for the game, leaving Murray with more playmaking duties than usual. He was able to reach six assists for only the fourth time this season as a result, though that was offset by nine turnovers. More positively, Murray shot the ball well and has topped 20 points in each of his last three contests.

Updating a previous report, the NBA has added a game between the Nuggets and Cavaliers to Friday's schedule, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

Initially, the Nuggets were set to play Charlotte on Friday, but that game was postponed due to COVID-19 concerns with the Hornets. The league has now replaced the game with a matchup against Cleveland , so Denver is set to play Tuesday at Washington, Wednesday at Boston, Friday at Cleveland and Sunday at Atlanta.

Murray and the Nuggets will not play Friday against the Hornets after the league postponed the game, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Tuesday's game at Boston and Wednesday's game at Washington are on as scheduled, but Friday's game has been postponed due to COVID-19 contact tracing within the Hornets, who played against the Spurs on Sunday. It was announced Tuesday morning that San Antonio is dealing with four positive COVID-19 tests.

Murray recorded 25 points (7-15 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds and four assists Sunday in a 122-105 win over the Lakers.

Nikola Jokic carried Denver for one half before the Lakers' defense forced him into a playmaking role. Murray stepped up with 10 third-quarter points, which put the Nuggets up enough that their starters mostly rested in the fourth. Murray's 25 points Sunday marked his highest scoring tally in February so far.

Murray (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Lakers.

Murray was a game-time decision heading into Sunday's contest, but he'll be able to return to action after spraining his left ankle against the Thunder on Friday. It wouldn't be surprising to see him reclaim his spot in the starting five against the Lakers on Sunday.

Murray (ankle) will be a game-time call for Sunday's game against the Lakers, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

Murray sprained his left ankle against Oklahoma City on Friday, but there's hope that he'll be able to play Sunday night. The plan is for the guard to go through pregame warmups, after which the Nuggets' training staff will make an official call on his status.

Murray is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lakers due to a left ankle sprain, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray has emerged from Friday's win over the Thunder with a sprained ankle, and he may miss his third game of the season Sunday. If that ends up being the case, Monte Morris, Facundo Campazzo and R.J. Hampton would be in line for more minutes.

Murray logged 22 points (8-19 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two steals over 38 minutes in Friday's 97-95 win over the Thunder.

Murray led the Thunder in playing time Friday, and he tied for the highest scoring total on the team during the win over Oklahoma City. The 23-year-old had was less effective than usual over the past two games following his return from a right knee injury, but he returned to form in a significant way against the Thunder.

Murray scored 11 points (4-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and contributed four assists, three rebounds and one steal in Denver's 125-112 loss to Milwaukee on Monday.

After missing one game due to soreness in his right knee, Murray returned to the starting lineup and struggled mightily. Coming into Monday's game, the guard had made at least two threes in each of his last six games, but struggled from distance against Milwaukee. Look for Murray to get back on track Tuesday, against a Cleveland team that has an NBA worst 39.6 percent opponent 3Pt percentage.

Murray (knee) will play Monday against the Bucks.

Murray was previously considered questionable due to soreness in his right knee, but the Nuggets have cleared him to return for Monday's clash. He's averaging 18.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 5.3 and 1.1 steals assists over his last seven games.

Murray (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the Bucks, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

The 23-year-old missed Saturday's matchup with the Kings due to soreness in his right knee, but he may be able to retake the court Monday. Monte Morris likely will receive another start at the point should Murray be sidelined for the second straight contest.

Murray (knee) is out Saturday against the Kings, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Left knee soreness will cause Murray to miss his second game of the season. In his absence, Monte Morris, Will Barton and R.J. Hampton could see extra time.

Murray is questionable for Saturday's game at Sacramento with left knee soreness.

The 23-year-old apparently picked up the injury during Thursday's loss to the Lakers, when he had 20 points (7-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and five assists in 37 minutes. Monte Morris will likely enter the starting five should Murray be unable to play Saturday.

Murray posted 20 points (7-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and five assists in 37 minutes during Thursday's loss to the Lakers.

With Nikola Jokic bottled up by Los Angeles and able to score only 13 points, much of the offensive burden fell on Murray, who led the team in minutes, field-goal attempts and points. He also notched a steal and a block on the defensive end to round out a solid but unspectacular stat line. Murray has mostly functioned as Denver's second option on offense this season, posting per-game averages of 19.0 points, 2.1 three-pointers, 4.0 rebounds and 4.5 assists.

Murray and the Nuggets won't play Monday against the Pistons after the game was postponed, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

The announcement came just prior to tipoff, and there haven't been many details released at this point. It's unclear as to whether the Nuggets will play Thursday's game in Los Angeles.

Murray delivered 16 points (7-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt), five assists, four rebounds and a steal across 34 minutes in Saturday's win over the Jazz.

Murray was one of six Denver players that scored in double digits, but he was one of just three that surpassed the 15-point mark. Murray hasn't been able to display the same efficiency and dominance level he evidenced during the Nuggets' playoff run from last season, but he is firmly entrenched as the team's second-best offensive option. He is averaging 19.1 points per game this month.

Murray (shoulder) is going through his regular warmup ahead of Sunday's game against the Jazz and appears on track to play, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray is expected to play despite a shoulder injury as he's only missed one of the team's first 18 games of the season while dealing with some bumps and bruises. The 23-year-old will look to help the team bounce back from Friday's loss to the Spurs against the hottest team in the league.

Murray (shoulder) is probable for Sunday's game against the Jazz.

Murray has been banged up recently, but he's still likely to play Sunday against Utah despite a sprained left shoulder. The 23-year-old is averaging 19.1 points, 4.4 assists and 4.0 rebounds over 35.0 minutes per game to begin the season.

Murray, when asked how he was feeling, responded, "Man, how am I feeling? My elbow bruised. I got a sprained left shoulder. I hit my glute. I got a big bruise on my glute. It hurts to lift my leg and run. But it's fine. It's cool. I'm always good, man," Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray has been beaten up this year, dealing with a variety of different injuries. That could be part of his variable play on a night-to-night basis, though he's always dealt with inconsistency in his performances. On a positive note, he's strung together five straight games of double-digit scoring, averaging 18.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.2 steals in 35.8 minutes.

Murray recorded 20 points (9-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt), six rebounds, seven assists, two steals and a block across 35 minutes in Friday's loss against the Spurs.

Murray is yet to record a double-double this season, and he has settled into a secondary role in an offense led by Nikola Jokic, but he continues to pile up points for fun -- he has now scored 15 or more points in four of his last five starts. Murray is entrenched as the Nuggets' second-best scoring threat, but he has already shown the ability to perform as the go-to guy if needed, so he has a decent floor and an even higher upside on most nights, as he can go off on any given game.

Murray scored 14 points (4-11 FG, 2-4 3PT, 4-4 FT) to go along with five rebounds, four assists and one steal in Wednesday's win over the Heat.

Murray couldn't find his shot from the mid-range and was reliant mostly upon free throws and three-point shots to produce. His scoring ability shouldn't be an ongoing concern, as both his true shooting and effective field-goal percentage have been in line with his career norms through 17 games this season. While Murray hasn't made any leaps in his game, he has consistently produced points, assists and steals and should remain reliable in those areas for the remainder of the campaign.

Murray was ejected from Monday's game against the Mavericks after being assessed a Flagrant 2 foul, Michael C. Wright of ESPN.com reports.

Murray was tossed in the third quarter for what the officials deemed a hostile act. He finishes with 16 points (7-11 FG, 2-4 3PT), three rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes of action.

Murray totaled 26 points (10-22 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and five assists in Saturday's 120-112 double-overtime win over Phoenix.

Murray was uncertain to play in the contest due to a left shoulder sprain, but the injury didn't seem to hinder his shot as the guard connected on three three-pointers and 10 of 22 field-goal attempts overall. He also paced Denver with 43 minutes in a game that needed two extra periods to be decided. Murray is scoring a career-best 19.5 points per game this season while chipping in 3.9 boards and 4.4 dimes.

Murray (shoulder) is available for Saturday's game against the Suns.

The 23-year-old picked up the left shoulder sprain during Friday's win over Phoenix and was considered questionable for Saturday's rematch, but he went through warmups and has been cleared to play. Murray played 40 minutes Friday and could have a lighter workload in the second half of the back-to-back set, but he should still operate as the primary point guard for Denver.

Murray (shoulder) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Suns, freelance NBA writer T.J. McBride reports.

Murray had already been dealing with some discomfort in his left elbow and his status for Saturday night is now in question due to a left shoulder sprain. So far this season, he's averaging 19.1 points, 4.4 assists and 3.7 rebounds over roughly 35 minutes per game. Monte Morris could see increased run if Murray is unable to go.

Murray registered 18 points (8-19 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, nine assists, three steals and a block across 40 minutes in Friday's overtime win over the Suns.

Murray ended just one assist shy of a double-double, and he came quite close from posting a triple-double as well -- the star point guard made sure to find a way to make his presence felt on both ends of the court. Murray was coming off his worst scoring output of the season with five points (2-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT) against the Thunder on Jan. 19, but this performance proved he can still be relied upon across all formats even if he has taken a secondary role on the offensive scheme behind Nikola Jokic.

Murray had five points (2-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four assists, two rebounds and two steals in 21 minutes during the Nuggets' 119-101 win over the Thunder on Tuesday.

Murray had a forgetting outing Tuesday, potentially due to nagging elbow troubles. Luckily for Denver's stud point guard, Jokic and company build up a sizable lead, resulting in limited playing time for Murray. The Nuggets are off until Friday, giving Murray additional time to rest.

Murray registered 30 points (11-27 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, four assists and a block across 42 minutes in Sunday's loss against the Jazz.

Murray was one of two Denver players that scored at least 30 points and, while he relied heavily on volume to post his second 30-point game of the season, he still delivered a strong performance across the board. Murray is averaging 21.2 points per game while shooting 47.1 percent from the field over his last nine appearances.

Murray totaled 17 points (6-18 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds and six assists across 37 minutes in Thursday's 114-104 win over the Warriors.

Although Murray's struggled with his shot, his success in the peripheral categories salvaged his fantasy value in the victory. His nine rebounds marked a season high. The standout point guard has yet to equal the superior string of production he demonstrated in the Orlando bubble, but his usage rate remains high. He'll remain a solid multi-category contributor in all formats.

Murray scored 20 points (9-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 0-2 FT) to go with four assists and one steal across 35 minutes in a 122-116 loss to Brooklyn on Tuesday.

Murray returned to his season scoring averaging after a quiet performance on Sunday when the guard scored just nine points. After poor scoring performances this season, Murray doesn't have trouble finding his rhythm, scoring at least 20 points in both games that followed an outing of less than 10 points. The guard is scoring at the highest clip of his career, but isn't seeing the same returns elsewhere on offense, rebounding and dishing assists at his lowest rates since the 2017 season.

Murray recorded 21 points (8-19 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine assists, four rebounds and a steal across 46 minutes in Thursday's 124-117 overtime loss to the Mavericks.

After a mediocre inaugural game versus the Kings, Murray has logged double-digit scoring totals in six straight games. While Murray is an apt perimeter shooter, he's on pace for a career year beyond the arc. He's also outpacing his career averages with 22 points and four rebounds per game. Murray is only trailing with his assist numbers, but that dip is almost certainly due to Denver's need for him to create his own shots in space, especially against a tough perimeter defense.

Murray notched 13 points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), a rebound and three assists across 32 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Timberwolves.

Murray was one of seven Denver players who scored in double figures in this one and, while he ended a streak of four games with 20 or more points, he made the most of the limited offensive opportunities he had -- he registered season-low marks for both field-goal attempts and three-point tries. He's still averaging 22.2 points per game this season, so there shouldn't be reasons for concern going forward.

Murray amassed 36 points (13-20 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-9 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Sunday's 124-109 victory over the Timberwolves.

Murray took full advantage of a woeful Timberwolves team, having his way with them on the offensive end of the floor. That makes back-to-back games of at least 30 points for Murray who has certainly put a slow start to the season behind him. Shooting slumps are nothing new for Murray and so there is a chance another one could come at some point. For now, you simply plug him in and let him go to work.

Murray played 41 minutes in Friday's loss to Phoenix, totaling 31 points (12-22 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals.

Murray sat out Denver's previous contest due to a right elbow contusion, but he appeared to have no ill effects from the injury given his 12-for-22 shooting line and four makes from deep. The point guard has upped his scoring to 21.0 points per game this season, though he is averaging only 2.8 assists -- his lowest mark since his rookie campaign.

Murray (elbow) will play in Friday's game against the Suns, Kendra Andrews of The Athletic reports.

No surprise here, as Murray was deemed probable heading into the evening. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his usual workload at point guard for the Nuggets.

Murray (elbow) is active for Friday's game against the Suns.

Murray was probable heading into Friday's matchup, and he'll officially be available to return to the court after missing the team's last game due to an elbow injury. He'll presumably reclaim his role in the starting five against Phoenix.

Murray (elbow) is likely to play Friday against the Suns, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.

Murray was officially probable heading into Friday's contest, and coach Michael Malone said that he would be "shocked" if Murray and teammate JaMychal Green don't play against Phoenix. Assuming he's active, Murray should take the place of Monte Morris in the starting five.

The Nuggets are hopeful that Murray (elbow) will be available for Friday's contest against the Suns, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Murray missed Tuesday's action against the Kings due to an elbow injury, but it sounds like there's a decent chance he makes a return Friday. If he's out again, Monte Morris would probably draw another start.

Murray (elbow) won't play in Tuesday's contest against the Kings, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray was an extremely late addition to the injury report heading into Tuesday's matchup, and now he's ultimately ruled out. Monte Morris will earn the start in Murray's absence and likely see increased run. Murray is currently dealing with a right elbow contusion, and should be consider questionable for the Nuggets' next contest against the Suns on Friday.

Murray is questionable for Tuesday's game against Sacramento due to a right elbow contusion.

Murray has landed on the injury report just a few moments before tipoff. Thus, Monte Morris could see an extended run if Murray is ultimately ruled out. More news confirming Murray's status should surface real soon.

Murray scored 21 points (7-14 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-7 FT) and grabbed five rebounds in a win over Houston on Monday. He left the game in the third quarter after taking a blow to the head but was later able to return.

Murray walked to the locker room under his own power after initially laying on the floor following a third-quarter collision with Houston's Jae'Sean Tate. He appears to have avoided a concussion or serious injury given that he returned to the court in the fourth period. Murray uncharacteristically struggled from the charity stripe in the contest, but he was otherwise very efficient by making half of his 14 tries from the field, including 4-of-6 from deep. After a 1-for-9 dud in the Nuggets' season opener, Murray has totaled 44 points over his past two games.

Murray posted 23 points (9-20 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and three assists in Friday's loss to the Clippers.

Murray was dealing with left calf tightness entering the contest, but he played through the issue to log 37 minutes in the loss. The point guard showed considerable offensive improvement from his first game of the campaign, when he totaled only nine points on 1-of-9 shooting from the field. Based on his performance in recent seasons, Friday's respectable stat line should be more indicative of Murray's output moving forward.

Murray (calf) is starting Friday's game against the Clippers, Mirjam Swanson of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Murray was probable heading into Friday's Christmas Day matchup due to left calf tightness, and he'll be in the starting five for the Nuggets. The 23-year-old recorded nine points, four rebounds, two steals and one assist over 34 minutes in Wednesday's season opener.

Murray is probable for Friday's game against the Clippers due to left calf tightness, Kendra Andrews of The Athletic reports.

Murray struggled in the opener and suffered a calf injury along the way. That said, he's still expected to play Friday.

Murray posted nine points (1-9 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), four rebounds, two steals and one assist in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 124-122 overtime loss to the Kings.

Murray stayed aggressive and got to the free-throw line, but that hardly made up for his poor shooting from the field and lack of passing. Friday's matchup against the Clippers won't be a great bounceback opportunity, but Murray shouldn't have many games worse than he played in the opener.

Murray notched 19 points (7-17 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), eight assists, four rebounds and a steal in 43 minutes during Saturday's 117-107 Game 5 loss against the Lakers.

Murray was dealing with a bruised knee prior to Game 5 and that might have been the reason why he looked limited at times -- his 19-point output was his lowest mark of the postseason since Sep. 9, when he scored 18 against the Clippers. Murray was Denver's best player during the postseason by a wide margin and averaged 26.5 points per game while hitting the 30-point plateau six different times.

Murray (knee) will play in Saturday's Game 5 against the Lakers, Kendra Andrews of The Athletic reports.

As expected, Murray will play and start in Game 5 despite dealing with a bruised right knee. The Nuggets are playing down 3-1 for the third time in these playoffs. In the Conference Finals, Murray is averaging 26.5 points, 7.3 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 40.5 minutes.

The Nuggets have listed Murray as probable for Saturday's Game 5 against the Lakers due to a right knee contusion.

This is the first news regarding a knee issue for Murray, but his probable designation indicates he is on track to play. Final confirmation on his status should come closer to tip-off. While this update appears to be more of a formality than anything, it will be worth monitoring until he is cleared to play.

Murray had 32 points (12-20 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-8 FT), eight assists, three rebounds and one block in 45 minutes during Thursday's 114-108 Game 4 loss to the Lakers.

Murray did all he could for the Nuggets but it was not enough as they fell behind 3-1 for the third straight series. He has to be running on fumes right now and he could be excused for any fatigue that might be impacting his game. To this point, he has been able to provide consistent scoring as well as some elite assist numbers. Oddly, he failed to hit a single three-pointer in this game, something that he will certainly be looking to rectify on Saturday in what is now a must-win game.

Murray ended with 28 points (10-17 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 12 assists, eight rebounds and two steals in 44 minutes during Tuesday's 114-106 victory over the Lakers.

Murray came within two rebounds of a rare playoff triple-double, guiding the Nuggets to a much-needed victory. He paced the team in both scoring and assists with his offensive arsenal on full display. The Lakers made a late charge and got within one basket with less than three minutes remaining. However, Murray nailed a pair of clutch three-pointers to seal the victory, and folks, we now have a series.

Murray had 25 points (8-19 FG, 2-9 3PT, 7-8 FT), six assists, four rebounds, two steals and two blocks in Sunday's Game 2 loss to the Lakers.

Coming off of a relatively quiet Game 1 (21 points), Murray was more aggressive Sunday, taking 19 shots and working his way to the line eight times -- his most since Game 6 against Utah back in Round 1. Murray has now topped 20 points in five straight games.

Murray tallied 21 points (7-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five assists and one rebound in 29 minutes during Friday's 126-114 loss to the Lakers.

Murray was efficient from both the field and the free throw line but simply couldn't find the volume he has been accustomed to over the past few weeks. With the Nuggets well and truly out of it by three quarter time, Murray was given the final quarter off, which also limited his opportunities. Game 2 is on Sunday and the Nuggets will be looking to level the series in the hopes of avoided a 2-0 deficit.

Murray ended with 40 points (15-26 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five assists, four rebounds and one steal in 45 minutes during Tuesday's 104-89 Game 7 victory over the Clippers.

Murray's legacy continues to grow thanks to yet another fairytale performance against a highly-fancied opponent. The Nuggets became the first team in NBA history to rally from 3-1 behind, twice in the same playoffs. Murray was exceptional in the victory, scoring almost half of the Nuggets' 104 total points. They will move on to face the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals and at this point, who's to say they can't cause another upset.

Murray had 21 points (9-13 FG, 1-2 3PT, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two steals in Sunday's Game 6 win over the Clippers.

Murray was an efficient 9-of-13 from the field, while finishing as a team-best plus-14 in 41 minutes. After putting up 26 points in Game 5, Murray has back-to-back 20-point efforts for the first time since Games 5 and 6 against Utah.

Murray amassed 26 points (9-25 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds and seven assists in 40 minutes during Friday's 111-105 victory over the Clippers.

The Nuggets showed plenty of fight in this one, coming from 16 points down during the second quarter to extend the series another game. Murray struggled inside the paint but hit five of his seven perimeter attempts. His scoring output has regressed after an outstanding first-round series against the Jazz, although that is to be expected given the defense he is now playing against. They will look to force a Game 7 on Sunday and Murray is going to need to be aggressive once again.

Murray scored 18 points (6-15 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT) while adding seven assists, four rebounds and a steal in 44 minutes during Wednesday's Game 4 loss against the Clippers.

Murray posted three straight games with at least 40 points in the first-round series against the Jazz, but he has crashed down to earth and hasn't reached the 20-point mark in four of his last five games. He is averaging 17.8 points per game (on 38.2 percent shooting from the field) against the Clippers after scoring 31.6 points per contests in the first-round series against the Jazz.

Murray totaled 14 points (5-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine assists, four rebounds and two steals in 38 minutes during Monday's 113-107 Game 3 loss to the Clippers.

Murray's offensive woes continued Monday, shooting under 34 percent for the third time in the last four games. After almost single-handedly carrying the Nuggets into the second round, the Clippers appear to have his number when it comes to putting up points. With that being said, he still managed to contribute with nine assists, just the fifth time he has reached that mark all season.

Murray totaled 27 points (10-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six assists, three rebounds, two steals and one block in 40 minutes during Saturday's 110-101 Game 2 victory over the Clippers.

Murray combined with Nikola Jokic to score almost half of the Nuggets' total score. After a couple of underwhelming performances, Murray found some of the form he had shown throughout the first-round series against the Jazz. Both he and Jokic were kept in check during the second half but the damage had been done and the Nuggets will now head into Game 3 with renewed confidence.

Murray ended with 17 points (7-21 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, two rebounds and one steal in 41 minutes during Monday's 80-78 victory over the Jazz.

The Nuggets completed a miraculous comeback, clinching their series against the Jazz with a spirited Game 7 victory. Murray was not able to replicate his earlier performances and luckily, neither was Donovan Mitchell. Murray has basically carried the Nuggets over the first six games and can certainly be forgiven for this performance. With that being said, he still hit a couple of clutch baskets and will now ready himself for the challenge of facing the Clippers in the second round.

Murray posted 50 points (17-24 FG, 9-12 3Pt, 7-9 FT), six assists and five rebounds across 43 minutes in Sunday's 119-107 win over the Jazz.

With his second 50-point game, Murray joins Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlain and Allen Iverson as the fourth player to score 50 -points twice in the same postseason. Murray brought his squad back from the brink to force the first Game 7 in the playoffs, and his history-making duel with Donovan Mitchell over the first six games of this series is the NBA at it's best. He'll be the key to getting the Nuggets over the hump Tuesday, and into the second round.

Murray notched 42 points (17-26 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists and a steal in 42 minutes during Tuesday's 117-107 Game 5 win over the Jazz.

Murray scored 50 points in Game 4 and while he couldn't top that performance, the Canadian point guard carried the Nuggets in this comeback win, making a couple of key shots down the stretch and setting up a decisive three from Nikola Jokic that iced the game for good. Murray has surpassed the 35-point plateau in three of five games during the series.

Murray had 50 points (18-31 FG, 9-15 3PT, 5-5 FT), 11 rebounds and seven assists in Sunday's Game 4 loss to the Jazz.

After a pair of down games in Games 2 and 3, Murray looked much more like the player who went for 36 points on 20 shots in the Nuggets' Game 1 victory. While the Nuggets ultimately fell short, Murray had his highest-scoring game of the season -- by an 11-point margin -- while falling just short of matching his season-best 12 rebounds.

Murray recorded 23 points (10-25 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-4 FT), 12 rebounds, eight assists and one block in 39 minutes during Saturday's 134-132 double-overtime win against the Jazz.

Coach Michael Malone wasted no time throwing Murray, who had missed the team's previous bubble games, into the fire. Playing 39 minutes in his first game back from a hamstring injury, Murray struggled with his efficiency but was still able to handle a sizeable offensive load and pass efficiently, turning the ball over just twice compared to eight dimes.

Murray (hamstring) will make his NBA bubble debut Saturday against the Jazz, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Murray has been dealing with left hamstring tightness, preventing him from playing in the bubble so far. That will change Saturday, as he'll get on the court for the Nuggets' fifth game of the restart. A formal minutes limit has not yet been established, but it would be surprising if we saw him crack the 30-minute mark. Monte Morris' role will presumably be reduced as a result of Murray's return.

Murray (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday's contest against the Jazz.

Murray continues to be bothered by left hamstring soreness and has not made his bubble debut. If he ends up taking the court Saturday, he could have a minutes limit.

Murray (hamstring) won't play in Thursday's contest against Portland, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray will miss a third straight matchup to tend to left hamstring soreness. The guard hasn't made an appearance in an NBA bubble game just yet, as his last played game came March 11 against Dallas. Teammate Monte Morris will presumably garner a fourth consecutive start in Murray's absence.

Murray (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's contest against the Trail Blazers, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Murray has yet to make his bubble debut while working through left hamstring soreness, and we may not learn more about his status for Thursday until closer to tipoff. If he does end up playing, chances are that he'll be on a minutes limit.

Murray (hamstring) is out for Wednesday's contest against the Spurs, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

There was some hope Murray could take the floor Wednesday after missing the Nuggets' first two seeding games, but he'll ultimately remain on the sidelines due to left hamstring soreness. In his stead, Monte Morris will continue to see extended run at point guard. Murray's next opportunity to take the floor arrives Thursday against the Trail Blazers.

Murray (hamstring) is considered questionable for Wednesday's game against San Antonio, Kendra Andrews of The Athletic reports.

Discomfort in his left hamstring has kept Murray out of the Nuggets' first two seeding games, but there's hope he'll return to the lineup Wednesday. Murray was able to go through some conditioning work Monday and Tuesday, but he hasn't participated in any game action since the team's final scrimmage on July 27. If Murray is ultimately cleared to play, he'd likely face some initial limitations.

Murray (hamstring) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Thunder, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

Murray will miss a second straight game with a sore left hamstring, and he'll join Will Barton and Gary Harris on the inactive list. Expect Monte Morris to make another start in Murray's place. The Kentucky product's next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Spurs on the front end of a back-to-back.

Murray (hamstring) is considered "very questionable" for Monday's game against the Thunder, Kendra Andrews of The Athletic reports.

A tight hamstring kept Murray out of the Nuggets' opener on Saturday, and it sounds as though the team is prepared for him to miss at least one more game. Look for a more definitive update after shootaround Monday morning.

Murray (hamstring) will not play in Saturday's matchup with the Heat, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

It appears the Nuggets are exercising caution for the restart opener, as Murray will sit along with Gary Harris (hip) and Will Barton (knee). As a result, look for Monte Morris, Torrey Craig and Michael Porter to all see increased roles. Murray's next chance to suit up will come Monday against the Thunder.

Murray is questionable for Saturday's contest against the Heat due to left hamstring tightness.

It's not exactly clear when Murray suffered the injury, but it may prevent him from playing in the opener. Gary Harris (hip) and Will Barton (knee) have already been ruled out, so if Murray is out as well, more minutes should funnel to Monte Morris, Torrey Craig and Michael Porter.

Murray posted 23 points (8-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists, and two steals in 26 minutes during Monday's 114-110 loss to the Magic.

Murray missed Saturday's scrimmage against the Pelicans, but he returned for the team's final game before the start of the regular season and looked completely healthy. At this point, there shouldn't be any doubts regarding Murray's availability for the regular season restart Saturday against the Heat.

Murray is feeling some hamstring tightness and will not participate in Saturday's scrimmage as a result, Rachel Nichols of ESPN reports.

Murray did not participate in Friday's practice due to the issue, so there is no surprise that the Nuggets are erring on the side of caution with their starting point guard. At this point there is no reason to believe he will not be ready for Saturday's bubble opener against the Heat, but his status should certainly be monitored.

Murray (coach's decision) went through parts of Friday'ss practice, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

It's not clear why Murray was held out of Denver's first scrimmage Wednesday against the Wizards, and we haven't gotten any more information on the matter. Considering he only went through parts of Friday's practice, it's not clear if he'll play in Denver's second scrimmage Saturday against the Pelicans.

Murray will not participate in Wednesday's scrimmage, T.J. McBride of MileHighSports.com reports.

Coach Michael Malone is also choosing to hold out Gary Harris, Torrey Craig and Will Barton. As a result, we should expect Troy Daniels to see extended run.

Murray scored 25 points (10-22 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT) along with six rebounds, five assists and a steal over 38 minutes of action in the Nuggets' 113-97 loss to the Mavericks on Wednesday.

Playing in the midst of a chaotic news night, Murray hit the 25-point mark for the first time in nearly a month and has been shouldering increased burden during Nikola Jokic's slump. Jokic was solid Wednesday, but Murray still doubled his shot output. The Kentucky product is averaging nearly 19 points, five assists and four rebounds per game this season.

Murray posted 21 points (9-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt), six assists, five rebounds, a steal and a block in Denver's 109-95 Monday night victory over the Bucks.

On a vicious play waived off by an offensive foul, Murray elevated and jammed over D.J. Wilson for a highlight that basketball fans should look into. The energizing effect took hold, with Murray hitting the next four Devner shots, dusting Wesley Matthews in the process. His 21 points and 39 minutes were both team-highs.

Murray compiled 18 points (6-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists, three rebounds and one steal in 35 minutes during Thursday's 114-112 win over the Hornets.

Murray splashed the go-ahead basket with 5.1 seconds remaining. He's managing career highs in scoring, steals and field-goal percentage, but overall his numbers are pretty similar to last year.

Murray posted 22 points (8-15 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five assists and one rebound across 37 minutes during Sunday's 133-118 win over the Raptors.

Murray's six threes came up one short of a season high. His shot from distance is inconsistent, but the Nuggets have managed to go 6-0 this season when Murray hits at least four three-pointers. In 17 appearances since the New Year, he's averaging 21.9 points, 5.1 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 33.6 minutes.

Murray delivered 16 points (5-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight assists, five rebounds, one steal and one block in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 115-98 win over the Pistons.

Murray missed ten games between Jan. 16 and Feb. 2, but he has looked impressive in eight contests following his return -- he has topped the 15-point mark every single time while dishing out five or more assists in six of those eight contests. Murray has been a reliable source of scoring for the Nuggets all year long, and the team will need him healthy for both the end of the regular season and a potential deep postseason run.

Murray went for 19 points (8-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six assists, one rebound and one steal in 35 minutes during Sunday's 128-116 win over the Timberwolves.

Murray saw his streak of games scoring 20 or more points end at six, but he still provided decent value with his six assists and a high shooting percentage. Since returning from injury in Feb. 4, Murray is averaging 26.4 points per game while shooting 56.3 percent from the field.

Murray had 32 points (13-25 FG, 3-8 3PT, 3-4 FT) and 10 assists in Wednesday's overtime loss to the Lakers.

Murray led the way for Denver on a night when the Nuggets shot 50 percent from the field as a team. The Kentucky product played a season-high 44 minutes, and his 13 made field goals fell just short of his season high (14). While he appeared to suffer a neck injury late in the game, Murray played through the issue to finish the fourth quarter and OT period.

Murray tweaked his right ankle in Monday's 127-120 win over the Spurs, but he said afterward that he plans on playing in Wednesday's matchup with the Lakers, T.J. McBride of MileHighSports.com reports.

An injury to the same ankle recently kept Murray sidelined for 10 consecutive games, but any aggravation he experienced Monday was apparently minor. Though Murray noted that he was close to sitting out the second half of the contest, he proceeded to play 34 minutes in the victory and delivered a strong stat line, finishing the night with 26 points (11-21 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists, two rebounds and one steal. Assuming he avoids any complications during shootaround Wednesday morning, he should be able to handle a normal minutes load in the Nuggets' final game before the All-Star break.

Murray chipped in with 26 points (11-21 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists, two rebounds and one steal in 34 minutes during Monday's 127-120 win over the Spurs.

Murray missed 10 straight games between January and February, but he has been nothing short of excellent since returning to the starting lineup four games. The fourth-year guard has averaged 28.3 points and 5.3 assists per game during that four-game stretch, and he should remain Denver's second-best scoring threat behind Nikola Jokic moving forward. He is also shooting an unsustainable 58.9 percent from the field during that aforementioned span.

Murray totaled 36 points (14-17 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block in 35 minutes during Saturday's 117-108 victory over Phoenix.

Murray put on a shooting clinic Saturday, dropping a game-high 36 points. Since returning from an ankle injury, Murray has been putting up second-round value, something that is unlikely to stick moving forward. Typically around the top-60 when it comes to standard leagues, this could be a nice sell-high opportunity for those invested in Murray.

Murray finished with 31 points (12-26 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four assists, two rebounds and one block in 43 minutes during Wednesday's 98-95 victory over Utah.

Murray played a whopping 43 minutes Wednesday despite appearing to battle through his recent ankle injury. With the Nuggets down to seven active players, the playing time was on the high side for a number of the starters. Murray didn't look completely healthy, although he does have a couple of nights to rest before traveling to Phoenix to face the Suns on Saturday.

Murray managed 20 points (6-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), six assists and two rebounds in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 127-99 victory over the Trail Blazers.

Murray took to the court after missing 10 straight games with an ankle injury. The playing time was down; however, this was likely due to both the injury management factor as well as the blowout. The Nuggets were part of a massive four-team trade Tuesday night, although the acquisitions made are highly unlikely to impact Murray's role moving forward. The Nuggets are on a back-to-back set and will face the Jazz in Salt Lake City in what is a mouth-watering matchup. Barring any setbacks, Murray should be considered probable for that game.

Murray (ankle) is in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Trail Blazers, T.J. McBride of MileHighSports.com reports.

Murray missed the last 10 games with the left ankle sprain, but he's good to retake the court versus Portland. The 22-year-old may not reach his 32.0-minute average given the layoff and the fact Tuesday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set.

Murray (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Trail Blazers, Chris Dempsey of Altitude Sports reports.

Murray has missed the past 10 games due to a sprained left ankle, but the fact that he's being listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game suggests he's drawing closer to a return. Look for his status to clear up closer to tip-off. If he's unable to play Tuesday, Murray's next chance to take the court will come Wednesday in Utah.

Murray (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Pistons, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray continues to miss time due to a sprained left ankle. He hasn't played since Jan. 15.

Murray (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Milwaukee.

Murray will miss his ninth straight contest due to a left ankle sprain. The team will continue to consider him day-to-day moving forward.

Murray (ankle) will not play Thursday against the Jazz, T.J. McBride of MileHighSports.com reports.

Murray will miss another game Thursday, and he's been sidelined since Jan. 16 due to a sprained left ankle. His next opportunity to take the court arrives Friday against the Bucks.

Murray (ankle) will not play Tuesday against the Grizzlies, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

Murray is still working his way back from a sprained left ankle and will miss a seventh straight game as a result. The point guard was able to get in some light conditioning work prior to Sunday's win over the Rockets, though he remains without a concrete timetable for his return. Will Barton and Monte Morris should handle the majority of point guard duties in Murray's absence.

Murray (ankle), who is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Rockets, was able to get in some light conditioning work on the court during warmups, T.J. McBride of MileHighSports.com reports.

The Nuggets haven't yet established a target date for Murray's return to game action, but his light activity on the court at least suggests that he's further along in his recovery from injury that either Paul Millsap (knee) and Mason Plumlee (foot), who are also out indefinitely. The coaching staff will presumably wait and see if Murray can increase his level of activity in practice Monday before ruling on his status for Tuesday's game in Memphis, but the point guard can be viewed as doubtful for that contest until the team provides an update.

Murray (ankle) is without a firm timetable to return, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

Coach Mike Malone said Monday that both Murray and Paul Millsap are "a ways off" from returning to game action, which is not the most encouraging quote considering Murray has already missed the last three games. At this point, it's unclear if he'll miss days or weeks, but Monte Morris should continue to pick up significant minutes at point guard so long as Murray remains sidelined.

Murray (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game at Houston, T.J. McBride of MileHighSports.com reports.

Murray, Paul Millsap (knee) and Mason Plumlee (foot) are ruled out Wednesday and Gary Harris (groin) is doubtful, leaving the Nuggets shorthanded once again. Monte Morris should remain in the starting five until Murray is able to return from the left ankle sprain.

Murray (ankle) will not play Monday against Minnesota, Dane Moore of ZoneCoverageMN reports.

The Nuggets will be without all three of Murray, Gary Harris and Paul Millsap on Monday, and for Murray it will be his third consecutive absence. He's dealing with a left ankle sprain, and while X Rays showed no structural damage, it's unclear how long Denver will be without its starting point guard.

Murray (ankle) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

After Murray was diagnosed with a sprained left ankle following his early departure from Wednesday's win over the Hornets, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic relayed that the point guard would be sidelined multiple games on account of the injury. It thus comes as little surprise that Murray will be sidelined for a second straight contest Sunday, and unless the Nuggets indicate otherwise, he can probably be viewed as doubtful for the second half of the back-to-back set Monday in Minnesota. Monte Morris will likely act as the Nuggets' starter at point guard until Murray is cleared to play again.

Murray is expected to miss multiple games due to a sprained left ankle, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

Further testing on Murray's ankle came back clean, but he's still on track to miss at least a few matchups while on the mend. Monte Morris figures to take over at point guard while Murray returns to health.

Coach Mike Malone said Murray (ankle) will not play Thursday against the Warriors, Harrison Wind of BSNDenver.com reports.

Murray injured his ankle during Wednesday's game against the Hornets, and while he avoided structural damage, the issue will keep him sidelined for at least one game. The Nuggets have yet to provide an official timetable for his return, so the point guard should continue to be considered day-to-day for now. With Murray unavailable, Monte Morris should join the starting lineup and benefit from increased minutes.

Murray avoided structural damage in his injured ankle, Harrison Wind of BSNDenver.com reports.

Fortunately, Murray appears to have avoided the worst possible outcome as X-Rays taken on his injured ankle after the game were returned negative. Coach Michael Malone avoided giving Murray a timeline for return, however, as it's becoming more evident that the star point guard will likely be held out multiple games. That said, until the team provides an official update to Murray's status, he can tentatively be considered day-to-day moving forward. If he's held out Thursday against Golden State, look for Monte Morris to enter the starting lineup, with Malik Beasley and PJ Dozier factoring in off the bench.

Murray suffered an ankle injury during the second quarter of Wednesday's tilt with the Hornets and won't return, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Fortunately, the injury doesn't appear to be as bad as initially thought, though Murray will be held out for the remainder of Wednesday's contest. Murray required assistance from his teammates in exiting the floor after he injured his ankle attempting to contest Terry Roziers' shot. If he's forced to miss an extended period of time, Monte Morris is the best bet to take on starting minutes, while Malik Beasley could be expected to see an increase in run off the bench.

Murray (back) will play in Wednesday's game against Charlotte.

Murray has been given the green light to play through minor back soreness. He'll presumably take on his usual role in the starting lineup where he's averaged 17.9 points, 4.7 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 32.4 minutes per game so far this season.

Murray is questionable for Wednesday's game against Charlotte due to back soreness, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Murray logged 38 minutes and scored 19 points in Sunday's win over the Clippers, but he's now experiencing some ill effects of the contest. Paul Millsap (knee) has already been ruled out for Wednesday's tilt and Gary Harris (groin) is questionable, so the Nuggets are dealing with several injuries to their starting five at the moment.

Murray had 24 points (10-22 FG, 2-9 3PT, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and three steals in 35 minutes during Saturday's 111-103 loss against the Cavaliers.

Murray has been filling out the stat sheet over his last few outings, and he is averaging 23.0 points, 5.4 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.8 steals/blocks combined over his last five starts. He has topped the 20-point plateau in three of those contests, and he is settling as one of Denver's most productive players on both ends of the court. Aside from his regular scoring numbers, the fact that he has multiple steals/blocks in three of his last outings should be encouraging as well.

Murray (back) will play in Sunday's game against New York, Adam Mares of DenverStiffs.com reports.

As anticipated, Murray will get the green light to play despite being impacted by minor back soreness. The 22-year-old's turning out another strong year and is averaging 17.0 points, 4.6 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 31.5 minutes per game thus far.
