Jamal Murray DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray finished with 13 points in Sunday's loss to the Thunder. He added three steals and two assists. This was arguably Murray's worst showing of the series with OKC, especially on the scoring end. He shot a rough 6-for-16 from the field and made only one of his eight attempts from downtown. The 28-year-old averaged 21.4 points, 6.0 assists, and 3.9 boards during the regular season. While his three-point percentage dropped, he at least appeared in 67 games, eight more than the 2023-24 campaign. With that said, Murray has All-Star potential. However, his health is always a concern for fantasy managers, and he's also been known to go cold at times throughout his career.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (illness) is considered probable for Sunday's intriguing Game 7 matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Murray played through an illness on Thursday, helping the team extend the series with a 119-107 win, and it appears he won't have any issues suiting up for Sunday's contest. Despite his illness, Murray filled up the box score on Thursday night with 25 points, eight rebounds, seven assists, and one block. Although his shooting has been inconsistent, Murray has recorded 25 or more points in three of six games in the series and is certainly poised to have a large role again on Sunday.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray had his second-highest scoring game of the postseason with 28 points in Tuesday's 112-105 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Canadian star flirted with a 30-point game, although Murray struggled to score efficiently. He went 10-for-27 from the field, including 3-for-13 from outside. In 42 minutes of action, Murray added four rebounds, three assists, and one block to his tally. While Murray has averaged 21.4 points per game against the Thunder, he has shot below 40 percent from the field in three of the five games and 39.5 percent overall in the matchup. A more efficient performance is needed from him for the Nuggets to advance to the Western Conference Finals.
