Fri Mar 29 | 19:29 | Jamal Murray Misses Friday's Game |
Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (knee) won't return to the lineup on Friday against Minnesota. After the team initially listed him as questionable for the contest, there was hope that Murray would be ready to jump back into action, but Nuggets head coach Michael Malone has now confirmed that Denver's star guard will sit out a fourth consecutive game. This means Reggie Jackson will carry extra fantasy value for at least one more game. He's averaged 16.3 points and 5.3 assists in the last three games as Murray's replacement in the starting unit. |

Thu Mar 28 | 20:37 | Jamal Murray Questionable For Friday |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Murray has missed the last three games with right knee inflammation. Fantasy owners will have to sweat it out again with Murray's status up in the air, trending toward a game-time decision. Reggie Jackson is the biggest benefactor, as he's averaged 16.2 points, 5.4 assists, and 2.5 rebounds in 19 games without Murray this season. Collin Gillespie also gets more playing time as a reserve in the games Murray misses and has averaged 18.7 minutes over the last three games. |

Wed Mar 27 | 20:24 | Jamal Murray Out Again On Wednesday |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) remains out for Wednesday's matchup with Phoenix. This will be there veteran's third consecutive absence after tweaking his ankle during a recent meeting with the New York Knicks. With that said, his next chance to return will be Friday against Minnesota. However, Reggie Jackson, coming off a 15-point performance on Monday versus Memphis, will remain a worthwhile DFS option. |

Wed Mar 27 | 09:44 | Jamal Murray Questionable Wednesday |
Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Suns. The Canadian star has sat out two games with a knee issue and might have to miss three games on the bounce for the first time since an 11-game absence in November. Reggie Jackson has filled the shoes of Murray well, averaging 19.0 points, 6.5 assists, and 1.5 steals over the past two games in the starting unit. Only Detroit gives up more points per 48 minutes to point guards than Phoenix, so we should see another good performance from Jackson if Murray can't return on Wednesday. |

Mon Mar 25 | 20:18 | Jamal Murray Out Again Versus Memphis |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) remains out on Monday against Memphis. He hasn't played in over a week because of a sprained left ankle. Unquestionably, the Nuggets need him healthy for the postseason, so he may not be back for at least a few more contests. But until Murray returns to the lineup, Reggie Jackson, who scored 23 points in Saturday's win over Portland, will presumably remain in the starting lineup. However, with Nikola Jokic (back, hip) and Michael Porter Jr. (illness) available, Jackson may not be as productive. |

Sun Mar 24 | 21:33 | Jamal Murray Back On The Injury Report |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is questionable heading into Monday's game versus the Grizzlies. He tweaked his ankle a few nights ago and wasn't available on Saturday night against Portland. Reggie Jackson took his spot in the lineup and finished with 23 points, five assists, and two steals in 29 minutes. There's a good chance Murray won't be back for Monday's contest, considering the oft-injured guard is needed for a deep postseason run. If that's the case, Jackson will remain an enticing DFS value option. |

Sat Mar 23 | 17:29 | Jamal Murray Ruled Out For Saturday |
Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (ankle) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Saturday's contest against Portland. A left ankle injury brings an end to Murray's run of 13 consecutive appearances. Reggie Jackson should take over as the starting point guard. The veteran has had 16.1 points and 5.4 assists in 16 previous starts this season. However, there's a good chance we see him being even more involved in the offense on Saturday because Nikola Jokic (back) will also skip the game. |

Fri Mar 22 | 22:46 | Jamal Murray Uncertain For Saturday's Game |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is questionable heading into Saturday's game in Portland. He tweaked his ankle during Thursday's 113-100 win over the New York Knicks. However, head coach Mike Malone didn't seem too concerned. With that in mind, the Nuggets' subsequent two contests are against some of the worst teams in the National Basketball Association, so Murray may not be back until Wednesday's matchup with the Phoenix Suns. But until he's cleared to play, Reggie Jackson, averaging 16.1 points and 5.4 assists in 16 starts this season, could be an attractive fantasy option for DFS managers, even more so if Nikola Jokic (back, hip) is also ruled out. |

Fri Mar 22 | 11:57 | Jamal Murray Suffers Minor Ankle Injury |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) seemed to tweak his ankle during the team's contest against the New York Knicks on Thursday. After the game, head coach Michael Malone said that Murray just "turned his ankle" and he left it at that. It seems like Malone and the team are not concerned with it and Murray shouldn't have to miss any time. Either way, this will be something to monitor ahead of their next game on Saturday against the Portland Trail Blazers. |

Sat Mar 2 | 20:06 | Jamal Murray Cleared For Saturday's Game |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is available ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Murray has been dealing with an ankle issue but was cleared to play after going through his pregame routine. Reggie Jackson is expected to remain on the bench and won't have great streaming appeal there. Fellow guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (personal) has been ruled out. That means Justin Holiday will likely start alongside Murray on Saturday. Holiday doesn't offer great value even on a small-slate night. Fantasy managers should make sure they have Murray back in their lineups. |

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) suffered a sprained ankle on Thursday against the Miami Heat. The Nuggets have been cautious with Murray as he dealt with several leg injuries this season. He's sat out 16 games so far. 33-year-old point guard Reggie Jackson will see more minutes if Murray cannot suit up. Denver's starting point guard has averaged 20.5 points and 6.3 assists in 44 contests when healthy. |

Fri Mar 1 | 16:19 | Jamal Murray Could Miss Contest Against Lakers |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) suffered a sprained ankle on Thursday during the second quarter of their game against the Miami Heat. He was able to walk off the floor under his own power but showed a noticeable limp. The team has been using a cautious approach with Murray due to the various leg injuries that have kept him out of 16 different games this year. With that being said, they're determined to stay with the same approach heading into their game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday. Head coach Michael Malone said that if he can't play up to his usual standard and be effective, then they're not going to risk any further injury. The official injury report hasn't been released yet. |

Thu Feb 29 | 16:00 | Jamal Murray Absent From Injury Report In Stiff Draw |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (shin) is not on the injury report for Thursday's 2023 NBA Finals rematch versus the Miami Heat. After wrecking the Sacramento Kings for 32 points on 15 shots in 33 minutes during Wednesday's win, Murray's status is worth noting after head coach Michael Malone was unsure of his availability for the second half of Denver's back-to-back. The 27-year-old star guard is on a roll post-All-Star break, averaging 25.7 points, 5.7 dimes, 2.7 three-pointers on 57.1% shooting from beyond the arc, and 1.3 steals over his past three performances. The Heat are holding opposing point guards to the third-fewest fantasy points per game on DraftKings this season, and this contest puts two of the five slowest-paced offenses in the Association against each other. Even so, Murray is close to a matchup-proof option in season-long settings while he's on fire shooting the ball. |

Fri Feb 23 | 17:14 | Jamal Murray To Miss Friday's Game Against Portland |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (leg) is ruled out for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The 27-year-old, who sustained a tibia injury, also missed the final game before the All-Star break. As a precaution, he will sit out the second night of a back-to-back. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger) is questionable, potentially leaving Denver without their entire starting backcourt. Reggie Jackson, Christian Braun, and Justin Holiday are all viable options to step up for the Nuggets on Friday. Murray boasts season averages of 20.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 6.5 assists in 31.4 minutes per game. |

Wed Feb 21 | 06:45 | Jamal Murray Good To Go Thursday |
Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (lower leg) is set to return to the lineup on Thursday versus Washington. Murray missed Denver's final game before the All-Star break, but he came through practice with no issues on Tuesday, and Nuggets head coach Michael Malone expects him to play against the Wizards. Murray's return will send Reggie Jackson back to the bench, although he could still be useful in some fantasy formats. Washington allows the sixth-most bench points in the league, and with the game expected to be a blowout, Denver's second unit, spearheaded by Jackson, could get more action. |

Wed Feb 14 | 20:57 | Jamal Murray Absent On Wednesday |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (leg) won't play on Wednesday versus Sacramento. This one shouldn't surprise anyone, considering he was downgraded from questionable to doubtful throughout the day. Barring a setback, he should be back immediately after the All-Star break. However, until Murray returns to the lineup, Nikola Jokic, Michael Porter Jr., and Aaron Gordon should remain locks for all fantasy lineups. On the other hand, Reggie Jackson, who will start for Murray, is worth streaming. |

Mon Feb 12 | 21:42 | Jamal Murray Leaves Monday, Questionable To Return |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (tibia) played 18 minutes in their Monday night matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks before he was forced to leave the game with bilateral tibia inflammation. He was officially ruled as questionable to return, but Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) also had to leave the game and is considered questionable too. With both of their starting guards sidelined until further notice, Reggie Jackson and Justin Holiday have been getting added minutes while Peyton Watson and Christian Braun have seen the court as well. This is going to be something to monitor for those fantasy managers who are depending on Murray. |

Fri Feb 2 | 16:00 | Jamal Murray Expected To Suit Up Against Blazers |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) has been listed as probable for the team's Friday night contest against the Portland Trail Blazers. He's dealing with a knee contusion that doesn't seem too serious as he hasn't missed a game since December 12. The star combo guard is tied with his career high in points per game right now and he's seen some increases in traditional stats from last year. Across 35 games, Murray is averaging 21.2 points, 6.4 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 2.3 made threes, and 1.9 turnovers per game while shooting 47.8% from the floor. With Nikola Jokic (back) still questionable, Murray may be depended on to carry the offensive load in this game. |

Tue Jan 16 | 18:37 | Jamal Murray Available Tuesday |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (leg) is ready to roll for Tuesday's matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. Murray is experiencing inflammation in his lower legs, but it won't be enough to make him inactive for this clash of the titans with Philly. The 26-year-old star has been limited to 27 games but hasn't missed a game since Dec. 12 and is returning third-round fantasy value in nine-category leagues, putting up 20.6 points, 6.4 assists, and 2.3 threes on a career-high 41.2% shooting clip from long distance. Going head-to-head with Sixers star Tyrese Maxey, Murray could engage himself in a point-guard duel on Tuesday. |

Mon Jan 15 | 19:22 | Jamal Murray Listed As Questionable For Tuesday |
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (tibia) has popped up on the injury report and has been listed as questionable with bilateral tibia inflammation. The 26-year-old hasn't missed a game since December 12 and was able to play a full 36 minutes on Sunday in an eight-point win over the Indiana Pacers. With Murray's injury history, the Nuggets may play it safe and give him a rest day if the tibia is bothering him that much. If that's the case, and he has to miss the game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Reggie Jackson would be the first candidate to take over the starting spot. He has registered some big nights when he gets the start, so he'd be a very good streaming option while Christian Braun could be a good option in deeper leagues. |
