Jamal Murray
December 2025
Jamal Murray sprained his right ankle early in the third quarter against Dallas, briefly returned, then sat the fourth as Denver slumped to a fourth straight home defeat, raising fears of another significant absence for a guard already carrying a heavy scoring and playmaking load. Coach David Adelman admits the team is “hugely” affected when Murray cannot finish games, with scans due on Tuesday and Denver already missing Aaron Gordon and Christian Braun, forcing role players to cover for the loss of Murray’s lethal pick and roll partnership with Nikola Jokic on both ends.
