Denver Nuggets basketball player Jamal Murray suffered a sprained right ankle during a 2025-2026 NBA game against the Dallas Mavericks, and the club will focus on monitoring the injury's progress for a faster recovery.
From the NBA website, Tuesday, coach David Adelman emphasized that the team will immediately evaluate the condition of the team's mainstay guard .
"This (injury) is a big loss for us and will affect the team's attacking style going forward," he said.
Murray suffered the injury early in the third quarter. He returned to play until the end of the quarter, but did not play in the fourth quarter as the Nuggets suffered their fourth straight home loss, 121-131.
Adelman said Murray will undergo further tests on Wednesday to determine the severity of the injury and his chances of playing in the next match.
Prior to his injury, Murray was impressive this season, averaging a career-high 24 points per game (ppg).
