Rotowire
Murray (illness) ended Thursday's 119-107 victory over Oklahoma City in Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals with 25 points (9-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists and one block in 42 minutes.

A four-point play to start the night set the tone for Murray, ending with him scoring at least 25 points for the third time in the past four games. The two teams will meet again Sunday, providing Murray with some time to recover before what promises to be a classic Game 7.

Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Game-time call Thursday
Rotowire
Head coach David Adelman said that Murray (illness), who is listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 6 against the Thunder, will be a game-time decision, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.
Murray was a late addition to the injury report and is in jeopardy of missing Thursday's win-or-go-home matchup. The Nuggets will likely provide an update on the 28-year-old guard's status just before tipoff, which is at 8:30 p.m. ET. Murray has averaged 21.4 points, 4.6 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 1.2 steals across 41.2 minutes per game in five second-round appearances.
Murray (illness) is available for Thursday's Game 6 against the Thunder.
Murray was added to the injury report earlier in the day due to an illness, but it won't keep him from Thursday's action. The team will presumably monitor his status as the matchup progresses, but he figures to play as much as he can handle in a must-win game. Murray is coming off his best scoring performance of the series, dropping 28 points in Game 5.

Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Downgraded to questionable
Rotowire
Murray (illness) is questionable for Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Thunder on Thursday, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
Murray was not on the initial injury report, so this is a big concern heading into the game for Denver. The Nuggets are facing an elimination game, however, so it would be a big surprise if Murray doesn't attempt to play even at less than 100 percent.

Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Shooting woes from deep in loss
Rotowire
Murray posted 28 points (10-27 FG, 3-13 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block over 42 minutes during Tuesday's 112-105 loss to the Thunder in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Murray finished as the Nuggets' second-leading scorer, recording his third 20-plus-point game of the second round. However, the star point guard was inefficient Tuesday, and he has shot just 39.5 percent from the field in this series. The 28-year-old has averaged 21.4 points, 4.6 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 2.4 three-pointers and 1.2 steals across 41.2 minutes per game during the Western Conference Semifinals. Murray and the Nuggets will look to stave off elimination at home in Game 6 on Thursday.
Murray finished with 17 points (5-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal in 41 minutes during Sunday's 92-87 loss to the Thunder in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Murray and Nikola Jokic shot a combined 12-of-37 from the field, as they were unable to take advantage of an awful shooting night from the Thunder -- both teams hit an exact 24.4 percent from beyond the arc. With the series tied 2-2, Murray has been pretty underwhelming with 19.8 points, 5.0 assists, 4.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 2.3 three-pointers on 40.7 percent from the field and 40.9 percent from beyond the arc.
Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Leads Nuggets with 27 points
Rotowire
Murray registered 27 points (9-19 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, eight assists, one block and four steals over 48 minutes during Friday's 113-104 overtime victory over Oklahoma City in Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Murray scored a team-high 27 points, looking the best he has in quite some time. He added five defensive stats, helping the Nuggets to an impressive victory. Perhaps even more impressive was the fact that Nikola Jokic struggled on the offensive end, instead deferring to his teammates who were able to carry the load. Murray will look to build on this performance when the two teams meet again Sunday.
Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Scores 14 points in Game 2 loss
Rotowire
Murray recorded 14 points (4-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 149-106 loss to the Thunder in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Murray drained three of his five three-point attempts, but that was perhaps the only area in which he stood out. The entire Nuggets offense struggled, although Murray's final stat line was somewhat efficient compared to some of his teammates. The star guard will aim to bounce back in Game 3 at Ball Arena on Friday.
