The Denver Nuggets need extra help in their Western Conference race because Jamal Murray will play no part in the match against the Golden State Warriors because of his right hamstring injury. With his fourth game miss this season due to injury, Jamal Murray remains sidelined from the Nuggets lineup. The Denver Nuggets need to win this game because they have only half a game lead over the Los Angeles Lakers, who aim to climb higher in the playoff ranking.
Jamal Murray (hamstring) ruled out Friday.

The Denver Nuggets’ recent poor game performance puts their playoff hopes in danger of failure. The Denver team let its players rest before San Antonio but delayed the full roster’s return because of Murray suffering from pain. The team experiences severe consequences since its most important player cannot participate. Throughout 65 games this season, the dynamic guard maintained an average of 21.6 points and gave plays six times. The second half has seen him play exceptionally well.
- 23.3 points per game since the break
- 5.9 assists per game during that span
- Exceptional 44.7% three-point shooting efficiency
