Jamal Murray Available vs. Phoenix?

Twenty-four hours earlier, they needed overtime to escape New Orleans with a victory that wasn’t particularly awe-inspiring. Jamal Murray ran off with 27 encouraging points and a sprained right ankle to halt his momentum. He was ruled out Monday without going through a warm-up routine, though a Christmas Day return in Phoenix is ​​possible. “On the plane back, (we) hoped it would improve and the swelling would go down,” Malone said. “(The ankle) received treatment throughout the night, this morning, but obviously didn’t respond as we had hoped.” -via Denver Post / 24 December 2024
