Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (quadriceps) is active for Friday's in-season tournament matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. The 26-year-old has appeared in every game this season and has played well, as expected, averaging 18.8 points, 7.8 assists, and 46.2% shooting from behind the arc. Without question, Murray should be in every fantasy lineup imaginable. However, the Nuggets play back-to-back games on Friday and Saturday, so he may see fewer minutes than usual in at least one of those games. There's also a chance he's held out of Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls for load management purposes.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (quad) is currently listed as probable for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He's joined by Nikola Jokic (back) and Christian Braun (shin) on the injury report. However, all three of them are considered probable, so they should all play. Murray is dealing with a right quad contusion, so he should be able to play through that. This game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so possibly Murray sits out one of these games. Fantasy managers should expect him out there, but check back closer to tip-off just in case he suffers a setback.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (rest) and center Nikola Jokic (rest) have been ruled out for Tuesday's preseason matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. Fantasy managers don't need to panic as this appears to be routine rest day for the Nuggets' superstars. In fact, the Nuggets are sitting their entire starting five for this final preseason contest. This makes sense as the Nuggets don't want to risk an injury to one of their starters heading into the regular season.

The 26-year-old was an integral component of Denver's 2022-23 title run, averaging 26.1 points, 7.1 assists, 3.0 three-pointers, and 1.5 steals in 20 games last postseason. Murray hopes for similar results with a cleaner bill of health to start 2023-24 after getting off to a slow start a year ago following ACL surgery recovery. The former No. 7 overall pick carries plenty of upside in the fourth-round range of upcoming fantasy drafts.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray has become a key piece to the team's success, but due to injury, he hasn't exactly had a superstar breakout yet. Despite that fact, the team is prepared to offer him a supermax extension after this season. General manager Calvin Booth said, "We're anticipating that we're probably paying him the supermax. He'll probably make All-NBA." Last season, Murray posted averages of 20.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 6.2 assists, and 1.0 steals per game in his first year back from his ACL tear two seasons prior. Murray has the talent to make an All-NBA team, and he should be a top fantasy guard to boot.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray won't take part in the 2023 FIBA World Cup, leaving Canada without one of its stars. Murray didn't travel with the team to Germany for exhibition games last week, but there was still hope that he can participate in the tournament.

"When I came into training camp, I wanted to see how my body would respond after a long and demanding season and if I would be physically able to compete at the highest level required for the World Cup," Murray said. "In consultation with medical staff and the team, it is clear that additional recovery is required, and I have made the difficult decision to not participate in the tournament. It's still a dream of mine to represent Canada at the Olympics, and I will support the team every step of the way as they pursue this goal." Whilst Murray's absence is awful news for Canada, fantasy managers should be happy with his decision, as he won't have the World Cup as a distraction ahead of the 2023-24 NBA campaign.

According to Doug Smith, the hope is that he'll be ready for games in Spain and the World Cup. There isn't a clear reason why he's not traveling right now, but it doesn't seem to be too serious since they are expecting him back. Murray will likely be a veteran leader on Team Canada during the World Cup run so they could really use him back on the court.
