Before Sunday’s game, ESPN’s Tim MacMahon announced an update on Murray.

MacMahon wrote: “Nuggets star G Jamal Murray is considered day to day after leaving Friday’s loss to the Knicks with an ankle injury, sources told ESPN. Expected to be listed as questionable for Monday’s game in OKC.”

Murray was the seventh pick in the 2016 NBA Draft out of Kentucky.

He is in the middle of a fantastic year with averages of 25.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 7.2 assists per contest while shooting 48.4% from the field and 43.1% from three-point range in 59 games.

The 29-year-old also made his first career All-Star Game.

Bennett Durando of The Denver Post added: “Nuggets were optimistic after Friday’s game that Murray had a mild ankle sprain and would be day-to-day, per sources. Team is flying to OKC without holding formal practice/media availability, so we won’t get to see what he looks like in the gym today.”
