Jamal Murray Joining Denver's Road Trip
6 months agoDenver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (hamstring) will travel with the team for their five-game road trip that begins Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans. "I don't know if on this road trip he'll play or not," head coach Michael Malone admitted in reference to Murray on Thursday. The Nuggets announced on Nov. 8 that Murray was expected to be out through the month of November as they take the cautious route with his right hamstring strain. Denver's road trip runs through Nov. 24, so even a return by that date would be quite optimistic based on the three-to-four-week timetable that was originally supposed. Still, the 26-year-old star's presence with the squad can only bode well for his chances of beating that timeline. It would be remiss at this point to deem Murray anything greater than doubtful on Friday against the Pels, however. Reggie Jackson remains a low-end fantasy hold, while Nikola Jokic continues to dominate usage in Murray's absence.
