The Denver Nuggets will take on the Memphis Grizzlies tonight at the Ball Arena. Until the win against the Sacramento Kings, which came in the midweek, the Nuggets were in a spot of bother, having incurred four losses in a row. The team's star Center Nikola Jokic is in the middle of everything and will likely remain the player who will have all the attention. However, the brilliance of the Jokic does not still guarantee success and he looks for support from other players too. The Nuggets' level has somewhat dropped in the recent weeks and Jamal Murray going out of the side on account of an injury has much to do. Murray is expected to return soon, but will it be tonight? That is the question. So, let's determine the status of Jamal Murray by taking a look at the Denver Nuggets injury report.
Jamal Murray Injury Report
Jamal Murray is unfortunately still a part of the injury report released by the Nuggets ahead of the game against the Grizzlies. Murray will remain out due to the hamstring injury.
An update on the point guard's return was delivered by Michael Malone, at the start of the week, he was still the head coach of the Nuggets then. Malone stated that Murray may not return to the floor until the playoffs.
While Nikola Jokic does much of the carry job, he gets supported by Jamal Murray consistently. Murray has averaged 21.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 6 assists per game this season. Thus, his absence has put pressure on Denver.
