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

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (knee) is expected to play against Utah on Tuesday. The team has listed him as probable on the injury report. Murray has just returned from a seven-game absence. He posted 16 points, three rebounds, six assists, and a block in 21 minutes against Atlanta on Saturday after knee inflammation kept him sidelined for a couple of weeks. Murray could see limited action again on Tuesday, but he's in a good spot to make damage. Utah gives up the most assists per 48 minutes to point guards and is currently even more vulnerable on the backcourt due to the absence of defensive specialist Kris Dunn (foot).

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is listed as questionable to play in Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The star guard has not suited up in the past seven games, and there is a chance he could miss another contest as he is recovering from right knee inflammation. With the regular season winding down, the Nuggets are certainly going to take precautions with their starting point guard to make sure he is healthy for the playoffs. Reggie Jackson will likely continue to lead the first unit as long as Murray is unable to play.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is questionable heading into Tuesday's showdown with the Los Angeles Clippers. He's missed the last six games because of a sprained ankle. However, fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised to see him out again on Tuesday night. Nonetheless, if Murray is ruled out again, Reggie Jackson, averaging 15.8 points and 5.4 assists in 22 starts this season, is worth considering for DFS contests. Of course, Nikola Jokic (wrist, hip), coming off a 42-point, 16-rebound, six-assist showing in Tuesday's win over the Spurs, could continue to be more productive than usual if Murray doesn't suit up.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) won't suit up for Tuesday's meeting with the Spurs. Despite the questionable tag, most assumed he wouldn't be out there against San Antonio. But now that he's sidelined for a sixth consecutive contest, his next chance to suit up will be for Thursday's meeting with the Clippers in Los Angeles. For now, Reggie Jackson should remain in the starting lineup, with the 33-year-old averaging 16.1 points with the first five this season. Of course, Murray's absence should also mean more scoring chances for Nikola Jokic (hip, wrist), Michael Porter Jr., and Aaron Gordon.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The star guard has missed each of the last five games due to right knee inflammation. Reggie Jackson has been starting in his place and that should continue until Murray is back in the rotation. There is a good chance that Murray is under a minutes limit once he's cleared to play. Fantasy managers can continue to stream Jackson until further notice. The Nuggets could be cautious with Murray this close to the postseason.
