Records double-double
Murray closed Monday's 132-121 victory over Utah with 20 points (7-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, 10 assists, one block and two steals over 37 minutes.
Analysis
The fact that both Nikola Jokic and Russell Westbrook posted triple-doubles reduced Murray's impact in the game. However, the star floor general extended his impressive stretch of play with his third double-double across his last six outings. During that six-game stretch, Murray has reached the 20-point mark five times while shooting 48.1 percent from the floor and an impressive 41.7 percent from three-point range.

Scores season-high 34 points
Murray posted 34 points (12-21 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal over 40 minutes during Saturday's 134-121 win over the Pistons.
Analysis
Murray has been playing at a high level in recent weeks, but he turned more than a few heads Saturday after notching his best scoring mark of the season by a sizable margin -- his previous season-high output was 28 points, which he'd recorded on two different occasions. The star floor general has reached the 20-point mark in all but one of his last seven outings, averaging 24.7 points and 6.3 assists per game while shooting 48.1 percent from the floor and 44.2 percent from three in that span. Murray's recent numbers have been impressive enough to qualify as his most productive stretch of the entire season.

Upgraded to available
Murray (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Pistons.
Analysis
Murray will suit up and should handle his regular workload in the backcourt as one of Denver's most reliable scoring weapons. He's been playing at a high level of late, scoring 20 or more points in five of his last six appearances. Murray is averaging 23.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game over that stretch.
28 December 2024
Likely to play Saturday
Murray is probable for Saturday's game against the Pistons due to a left ankle sprain.
Analysis
Murray has been tending to an ankle sprain but has played 39 and 40 minutes during the Nuggets' last two games. Saturday's contest is the closing leg of a back-to-back, so the Nuggets could opt to give Murray a slightly smaller workload. Regardless, it looks like he'll suit up and be available to play against Detroit.

Solid showing despite loss
Murray ended Friday's 149-135 loss to the Cavaliers with 27 points (10-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, 11 assists and two steals across 40 minutes.
Analysis
Murray extended his excellent run of play in recent weeks, and he reached the 20-point mark for the fifth time over his last six appearances. He also has two of the three double-doubles he's racked up this season over that six-game stretch. The first two months of the regular season have taught that the Nuggets will only go as far as Nikola Jokic can carry them, but Murray's uptick in form over the last few weeks raises the team's ceiling considerably.

Suiting up Friday
Murray (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analysis
Murray was deemed probable earlier Friday, so his availability for this matchup isn't surprising. The star floor general should handle his regular workload in the backcourt. Over his last five appearances, Murray is averaging 22.4 points, 5.8 assists, 4.8 rebounds and 2.0 steals per game.

Probable vs. Cavs
Murray (ankle) is probable for Friday's game against Cleveland.
Analysis
Murray returned from an ankle injury Wednesday against the Suns, though it appears the issue is still lingering. The team should have more clarification on his availability closer to tipoff.
26 December 2024
Scores 13 points vs. Suns
Murray closed with 13 points (4-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and six assists over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 110-100 loss to the Suns.
Analysis
Murray returned from a one-game absence but didn't look at his best. Aside from seeing his four-game streak of games with at least 20 points come to an end, the star floor general also notched his second-worst scoring output of the season. Murray is averaging 20.1 points and 6.1 assists per game in December, but the inconsistencies he's endured over the last few weeks conspire against his fantasy upside a bit.
26 December 2024
Will play Wednesday
Murray (ankle) will play in Wednesday's game against the Suns, Ramona Shelbourne of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis
After sitting out the previous Nuggets-Suns game in Denver, Murray will be available for their return matchup at Phoenix. December has been a strong month for the 27-year-old, who is averaging 24.8 points (on 46.3/39.3/87.5 shooting splits), 5.8 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 steals in 37.3 minutes this month. Murray will look to keep the pace going against a Suns team relatively ripe for the picking with Devin Booker (groin) still out.
