Jamal Murray’s playing status against the Grizzlies
Given its question mark on the injury reportthere is currently some doubt as to whether Murray will be able to try on Sunday in Memphis. Murray has been in and out of the Nuggets lineup in recent weeks as the team tries to hold down the fort in the absence of Nikola Jokic, who will miss another game Sunday with a knee injury.
Meanwhile, Jonas Valanciunas is questionable for the Nuggets with a right calf strain, while standout wing Peyton Watson is also questionable with right and left ankle sprains.
Christian Brown, Aaron Gordon and Cameron Johnson will miss this game due to various injuries.
For the Grizzlies, Ja Morant will be out with a sprained left elbow UCL, while Santi Aldama, Brandon Clark, Ty Jerome, Zach Eddy and Scottie Pippen Jr. will also be ruled out.
Overall, the Nuggets have done a solid job of keeping things going in Jokic’s absence, currently 31-15 after a recent road win over the reeling Milwaukee Bucks in a game that saw several key players out.
There was some doubt as to whether this game would be playable given the inclement weather the city of Memphis is currently dealing with, but so far, all signs point to things going according to plan, with tip-off set for 3:30pm ET.
