Murray (concussion) finished with 28 points (9-17 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six assists and four rebounds across 35 minutes during Friday's 135-122 win over Miami. Murray returned to the starting lineup following a three-game absence due to a concussion and looked better than ever. The point guard set season highs in points, made field goals and made three-pointers while dishing out at least six assists for just the second time in 2024-25. Murray shot only 36.5 percent from the field before his absence, so Friday's performance was certainly an encouraging step in the right direction, though it may be a stretch to expect this type of production consistently. Murray averaged 21.2 points and 6.5 assists last season.

Season-high 28 points in return
Murray (concussion) finished with 28 points (9-17 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six assists and four rebounds across 35 minutes during Friday's 135-122 win over Miami. Murray returned to the starting lineup following a three-game absence due to a concussion and looked better than ever. The point guard set season highs in points, made field goals and made three-pointers while dishing out at least six assists for just the second time in 2024-25. Murray shot only 36.5 percent from the field before his absence, so Friday's performance was certainly an encouraging step in the right direction, though it may be a stretch to expect this type of production consistently. Murray averaged 21.2 points and 6.5 assists last season.
Will play Friday
Murray (concussion) will be available for Friday's game against the Heat. Murray is set to return following a three-game absence, and his return will send Russell Westbrook back to a bench role. Expect Murray to handle his regular workload as Denver's second-best option on offense behind Nikola Jokic.
Expected to return
Murray (concussion) is expected to play in Friday's game against the Heat, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports. Murray has not officially cleared the league's concussion protocol yet, but it sounds like that is the expectation. Should that indeed occur, he will return from a three-game absence. Russell Westbrook would presumably go back to a bench role as a result.
Iffy against Miami
Murray (concussion) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Heat. Murray is in danger of missing his fourth straight contest Friday while in concussion protocols. If Murray is unable to suit up against Miami, Russell Westbrook should remain in Denver's starting lineup.
To remain out Wednesday
Murray (concussion) is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder. The Nuggets are being extremely cautious with their star point guard, and since Murray remains in concussion protocol, that means Russell Westbrook should draw another start at point guard. Murray might be a few days away from being cleared, so his status should remain uncertain ahead of Friday's game against the Heat.
Out again Monday
Murray (concussion) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Raptors. Murray remains in concussion protocol, so Russell Westbrook should draw another start at point guard. Murray's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday versus Oklahoma City, but he still has multiple hurdles to clear before getting the green light for game action.
Won't suit up against Utah
Murray (concussion) is out for Saturday's game versus the Jazz. Murray suffered a concussion against Minnesota that will keep him out for Saturday's contest. Russell Westbrook and Julian Strawther will likely receive increased playing time in his absence. Murray's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Toronto.
Lands in concussion protocol
Murray has been ruled out for the remainder of Friday's game against the Timberwolves after being placed in concussion protocols, Jace Frederick of St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. Murray was poked in the eye during the third quarter of Friday's game. He recorded six points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, two rebounds and a steal in 22 minutes. Given the multiple hurdles needed to clear concussion protocols, Murray can be considered unlikely to play Saturday versus Utah. In Murray's absence, Julian Strawther and Russell Westbrook are candidates for increased roles.
Poked in eye Friday
Murray went to the locker room in the third quarter of Friday's game against the Timberwolves after getting poked in the eye, Jace Frederick of St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. Murray posted six points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, two rebounds and a steal in 22 minutes before exiting the contest. If he can't return Julian Strawther and Russell Westbrook would likely see increased usage.
