Jamal Murray Out for Nuggets with Right Ankle Sprain
Jamal Murray is dealing with a right ankle sprain and will not take the court for the Denver Nuggets. The injury was reported on December 23, 2024. This keeps him out of action as he recovers.
What It Means
Murray’s absence is significant for the Nuggets. He has been averaging 19.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 6.1 assists per game this season. His shooting percentages are at 43% from the field and 34.6% from three-point range.
With Murray out, Russell Westbrook may see more playing time at point guard. Westbrook averages 12 points per game in his current role. The team will need to adjust without their leading point guard on the floor.
