Jamal Murray's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (hamstring) is listed as out ahead of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Murray is set to miss his second game in a row due to a lingering hamstring injury. The severity of the issue is unknown, but it doesn't sound like something that is going to sideline for him long. Russell Westbrook figures to draw another start in place of Murray. Westbrook nearly notched a triple-double on Saturday and is well worth starting with extended playing time on Sunday

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (hamstring) will not play in Saturday's matchup against Washington. He has been ruled out after landing on the initial injury report with a questionable tag. Murray's absence will be a big boost for Russell Westbrook's fantasy stock. He's set to move to the starting lineup, where Westbrook has recorded 18.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 6.3 assists, and 2.0 steals this season. This is also a very favorable matchup for Westbrook, as Washington has given up the second-most fantasy points to opposing point guards throughout the season.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. The veteran most recently logged 42 minutes in Thursday's loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, logging 42 minutes and finishing with 19 points. Murray wasn't at shootaround on Saturday, and with the Nuggets also playing the Hawks on Sunday, the team may give him a night off to rest his inflamed hamstring. If that happens, Russell Westbrook, who averaged 18 points, six assists, five boards, and two steals in three games without Murray this season, is a lock for any fantasy lineup. Michael Porter Jr., Christian Braun, and Nikola Jokic could also see an uptick in production if Murray isn't out there.
