The Denver Nuggets list Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon as probable on the injury report ahead of their matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Denver takes on the Charlotte Hornets after Jamal Murray scored 55 points in the Denver Nuggets' 132-121 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers.
Ever regret not seeing Murray in the bubble? This is what his past looked like. This is different, though. This isn’t the Murray Flurry. This is the Murray Recovery.
Denver is as good as anybody right now, though. The Thunder are tied for the best record in the league at 44-10. Denver is on pace for about 53 wins, while OKC is going to challenge for 66 or 67 wins at this pace. Most of that separation in the standings happened in the first month and a half of the season.
Jamal Murray scored 34 points, Nikola Jokic finished an assist shy of his 26th triple-double of the season and the Nuggets extended their winning streak to nine by holding off the Hornets 129-115.
