Jamal Murray final injury status for Nuggets-Nets

The Denver Nuggets earned their first victory of the NBA season against the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday night. It was an overtime victory for the Nuggets after star point guard Jamal Murray tied the game with an acrobatic layup at the end of regulation.

Returning to action on Tuesday night, the Nuggets look to make it two straight wins. Having dealt with injuries in recent seasons, Murray was on the injury report for this second consecutive game. Originally listed as probable with a sprained right ankle, Murray has since been upgraded to available.

Via Bennett Durando of the Denver Post: “Michael Malone says there will be no minutes restriction for Jamal Murray tonight.”

Not only is Murray available, but he won’t be limited on the second night of a back-to-back. It’s a good sign that the star point guard is feeling healthy at this point in the season, which is something the Nuggets will need as they look to build momentum after their 0-2 start.

The Nets are in the midst of a rebuild, having shed several star players over the past few seasons. Despite this, Brooklyn picked up an impressive victory against the Milwaukee Bucks in their last game and could pose a real challenge for Denver on Tuesday night.

The Nets and Nuggets will tip off at 7:30 p.m. ET at the Barclays Center.
