Jamal Murray Fantasy Stats

During a recent appearance on Sirius XM NBA Radio, Denver Nuggets general manager Calvin Booth reported the team is "very interested" in negotiating a new deal with guard Jamal Murray. The 2016 No. 7 overall pick has spent his entire career in Denver. While Murray missed the 2021-22 campaign with a knee injury, he returned to an elite level in 2023-24 by amassing career-highs in points (21.2), assists (6.5), and three-point percentage (42.5%). As such, he is expected to remain a top fantasy producer for years to come. Unfortunately, Murray's fantasy outlook won't be as bright moving ahead until he can stay clear of routine ailments, with the 27-year-old appearing in 65 games or fewer in the last five seasons.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray had a game-high 35 points on Sunday against Minnesota as the team's title defense ended with a 98-90 Game 7 loss. Following his disappointing effort in Game 6, Murray appeared determined to carry his squad to the Western Conference Finals, posting 24 points in the first half. But the Timberwolves tightened up the defense in the second half and produced a historic comeback in the contest. Murray's final stat line of the season included three rebounds and three assists. 2023-24 was a good year for Murray, as the Canadian star set new career highs with 6.5 assists and 42.5 percent three-point shooting while averaging 21.2 points. However, he again missed a large chunk of the campaign with health issues, playing in only 59 regular-season contests. Murray's injury history is definitely something fantasy managers need to consider while planning for 2024-25.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (calf) is questionable for Sunday's Conference semifinal finale versus Minnesota. This isn't Murray's first appearance on the injury report because of a nagging calf strain. But assuming he didn't suffer a setback since Thursday's loss, he'll be available. At any rate, the 27-year-old has struggled during this series, averaging 15.7 points per contest, meaning he's a risky DFS option for Game 7.

But he's turned things around, recently amassing 16 points in Tuesday's win. Although others have played better in this series, DFS managers can't ignore Murray's upside.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (calf) is considered questionable for Tuesday's Game 5 against Minnesota. He continues to nurse a left calf strain, which has kept Murray a regular on the injury report lately. However, he's played through the injury, averaging 17.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 1.8 steals in 36.8 minutes in the second round. Murray has been back to his best in the last couple of games and should be full of confidence entering Game 5.

Murray had a bad start to the series, but he's now shot at least 40 percent from deep in back-to-back games, picking up good momentum ahead of Tuesday's Game 5.

He's been battling a left calf strain, although he has played through it during the postseason. However, it's clear the ailment continues to bother the 27-year-old, considering he's averaged only 12.5 points throughout the series with Minnesota. With that said, Murray will likely be out there for Game 3. Yet, the injury could continue to cause him to struggle, making him a risky DFS option..

However, Murray struggled in the Game 1 loss on Saturday night, scoring only 17 points and shooting 6-for-14 from the field, so DFS managers have reservations about putting him in their lineups. But the Timberwolves won't have Rudy Gobert (personal), which puts Murray and the rest of the starters in an excellent position to turn things around in Game 2.
