Murray logged 28 points (12-25 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 42 minutes during Tuesday's 117-107 overtime loss to the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
Murray put together a second excellent game after throwing up a dud against Miami a week ago. Recording decent assist totals is an occasional problem for Murray alongside Nikola Jokic's contribution in that category, but the former has dropped 20 dimes over the past two games.

Murray (ankle) ended Saturday's 124-114 victory over the Lakers with 24 points (11-23 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 assists, six rebounds and one steal across 38 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Murray had been listed as questionable heading into Saturday after he tweaked his ankle in Thursday's win over Miami and was unable to return, but he ended up suiting up against the Lakers and looked like his usual self while logging hefty minutes. The double-double was Murray's eighth of the season.

Murray (ankle) is considered questionable for Saturday's matchup with the Lakers, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Murray exited Thursday's game against the Heat with a right ankle sprain. His status Saturday will likely depend on how he is feeling after testing things out during pregame warmups. Reggie Jackson would be the likely candidate to replace him at point guard should Murray ultimately not get the green light.

Murray will not return to Thursday's game versus Miami due to a right ankle sprain, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports. He finished with six points (2-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three assists and one rebound in 14 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
The Nuggets initially labelled Murray as questionable to return when he left right before halftime, but he had a pretty significant limp and didn't attempt to warm up for the second half. Reggie Jackson started the second half and would likely start Saturday's game versus the Lakers if Murray misses additional time.

Murray tweaked his right ankle during Thursday's game versus the Heat and went back to the locker room, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports. He's questionable to return.
EDGE Analysis
Murray landed on Aaron Gordon's foot a few minutes before halftime and rolled his ankle pretty good, but he was able to go to the back under his own power. If he's unable to return, the Nuggets will likely turn to Reggie Jackson to pick up the ball-handling duties.

He reached the 30-point mark for the first time in February and found time to add three assists as well. Murray has now recorded 30 or more points six times overall this season.

Murray finished Sunday's 119-103 win over Golden State with 27 points (9-16 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block in 36 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
After missing Friday's tilt in Portland due to shin splints, Murray appeared to be pretty healthy in Golden State on Sunday, topping 20 points for the first time since Feb. 8. The 27-year-old guard posted tepid numbers in his games on either side of the All-Star break due to the lower-body issue, but he's still drained multiple three-pointers in seven of his last 10 contests, averaging 19.7 points, 6.1 assists, 4.0 boards, 2.6 threes, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks over that stretch while shooting 42.6 percent from beyond the arc.

Murray (shins) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Murray sat out Friday's game against the Trail Blazers due to shin splints in both legs but has been cleared to return a few days later. He's averaged 16.6 points, 6.4 assists and 3.8 rebounds in 29.0 minutes per game over his last five appearances, but it's unclear whether he'll face limitations Sunday.

Murray (shins) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
Murray has been battling shin splints in both legs, and coach Michael Malone has mentioned that he'll need to monitor his reps at practices and morning shootarounds to manage them. Murray was unable to play Friday against Portland, so Reggie Jackson started in his absence and played 22 minutes.
