Jamal Murray might sit out Nuggets' second leg Thursday
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray said he's uncertain for Thursday's game against the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
Murray might sit out the second leg of the Nuggets' back-to-back after making 13 of 15 field goals and scoring 32 points in Wednesday's win over the Sacramento Kings. Reggie Jackson will likely start if Murray sits, with Christian Braun playing more minutes off the bench.
numberFire's models project Murray for 35.6 minutes and 36.7 FanDuel points on Thursday. The Heat are allowing the fifth-fewest FanDuel points per game to point guards this season.
