The 28-year-old has been listed on the injury report with a lingering hamstring issue.
Murray was previously tagged as questionable before ultimately being ruled out in Denver’s last four games due to inflammation in his right hamstring. Should he remain sidelined, expect Peyton Watson and Jalen Pickett to continue seeing expanded roles in the rotation.
The former Kentucky Wildcat has not played in over a week. He last played on March 26 in the win over the Milwaukee Bucks. In that contest, he recorded 17 points on 6-of-15 shooting from the field, four rebounds, six assists, and one block in 37 minutes of action.
In the season, Murray averages 21.6 points per game, 6.0 assists, 3.8 rebounds, and 1.4 steals while shooting 47.6 percent from the field and 39.6 percent from three in 65 games and 36.3 minutes.
