Jamal Murray Questionable for Nuggets Due to Ankle Injury
Jamal Murray of the Denver Nuggets is dealing with an ankle injury. His status for the next game is questionable. This news comes after he recently dealt with a hamstring issue, which kept him out of some games earlier in December.
What It Means
If Jamal Murray misses time, it could impact the Nuggets significantly. He averages 19.1 points per game and has been a key player for the team. Murray also contributes 6.1 assists and 4.1 rebounds per game, making him important on both ends of the court.
The Nuggets may look to Russell Westbrook to fill in if Murray cannot play. Westbrook averages 12 points per game and plays about 25 minutes per game as a backup point guard. The team will need others to step up in scoring and playmaking if Murray remains out.
