Nuggets Injury Update: Will Jamal Murray Play Tonight vs the Suns After Facing Another Injury Setback on His Return Game?

Denver Nuggets deservedly won the 2023 NBA title. The franchise demonstrated the advantages of strategic squad building over the trend of assembling super-teams with three or four-star players. The Nuggets now aim to achieve the rare distinction of winning back-to-back NBA titles and they have started the new season in fine form. Despite injuries to key players, they have consolidated their spot as one of the best teams in a fiercely competitive Western Conference.

The Nuggets face the Phoenix Suns in their next game. The game is perfectly poised, as both teams have studded squads. The availability of star player Jamal Murray, however, remains an uncertainty for Denver.

The Denver Nuggets are riding high following their victory against a revitalized Rockets team. Their victory against Houston takes their season tally to 13 wins in 19 matches. However, they suffered a setback, as star point guard Jamal Murray sprained his right ankle during the game. His recent ankle injury comes days after he recovered from a hamstring strain, which ruled him out for a month. Denver’s pre-match report for tonight’s game against the Suns has classified Murray’s availability as questionable.

The Nuggets will surely miss his services, as they face off against their title rivals the Suns. Denver will also miss Aaron Gordon, who is nursing a heel injury. Peyton Watson, the 21-year-old is listed as probable due to illness. In an early season assessment of their title credentials, the Denver Nuggets travel to the FootPrint Arena to take on the Phoenix Suns. Currently, the Suns stand out as one of the most in-form teams in the league, securing victories in 7 out of their last 10 games.

The Nuggets would look to secure a statement victory against the Suns. However, it is easier said than done. The Suns boast one of the most formidable tandems in the league with Devin Booker and Kevin Durant. This dynamic duo has propelled Phoenix to the 5th position in the Western Conference, achieving 11 victories in 18 games. But, Booker has been listed as questionable as he recovers from an ankle injury.
