Jazz vs Nuggets Injury Report: Will Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray Play Tonight?
The defending champions, the Denver Nuggets, have had another dominant season, consistently securing the top spot in the Western Conference. However, this year they’ve faced strong competition from the OKC Thunder and Minnesota Timberwolves for the #1 seed. Currently, the Timberwolves lead with a 54-24 record, matching the Nuggets’. Tomorrow, the Nuggets have a chance to overtake the Wolves in an away game against the Utah Jazz at 9 PM ET.
As the Nuggets strive to regain the top position, they are also dealing with a significant injury report. The availability of their star duo, Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, is uncertain. Murray, who recently returned after a seven-game absence due to a knee injury, is listed as probable. Jokic is also listed as probable with a hip injury.
Despite these challenges, the Nuggets have won both games played without either star this season. Jokic, notably, has missed only three games this season, with the Nuggets losing just one of those games.
