Denver Nuggets / Schedule

Ahead of their Tuesday clash against the New Orleans Pelicans, the Nuggets have made their franchise guard available to play.

Murray has missed the last two games for Denver due to a left ankle sprain. During this brief stretch, the Nuggets split their games, highlighted by a 108–104 win over the Milwaukee Bucks.

Murray is averaging a career-high 25.3 points and 7.5 assists in 35 games this season with the Nuggets. He is likely set for a strict minute restriction under David Adelman.

The Nuggets will continue to push through with Murray returning, as Nikola Jokic (knee) remains out at least until the end of the month.
