I think two things can be true:
1) Jamal Murray looks fantastic, athletic, dynamic, and in a good place mentally
2) He may not come back in the playoffs in a high pressure/intensity situation.
He also might. He didn’t practice today, but it doesn’t mean he isn’t getting close. – 3:55 PM

Coach Malone and Jamal Murray sat down and spent about 10 minutes (maybe longer because the media had to leave) talking one-on-one once everyone cleared out of the gym post-Nuggets practice. – 3:49 PM

At the end of practice, Jamal Murray ran over to the media seat and sat down.
“Y’all want me?”
As several of us (me included) asked if he was foreal, he got up and said “Nah, I’m messing with you.”
He knows the intrigue and the chatter… & is not above clowning on anyone. – 3:40 PM

Jamal Murray jokingly ran over to the media seat after Nuggets practice, sat down, and said smiling, “you guys want me or not?”
Funny guy. Funnyyyyyy guy.
He got up right away and did NOT speak to the media. – 3:39 PM

Neither Michael Porter Jr. nor Jamal Murray participated in today’s practice, Nuggets coach Michael Malone said. Malone made it sound like Vlatko Cancar and Zeke Nnaji could play tomorrow against the Lakers. – 3:07 PM

Malone says neither Jamal nor MPJ practiced today. Said both Zeke and Vlatko were able to go through parts, though. – 3:03 PM

Hearing there’s a good chance Vlatko Cancar will be available tomorrow vs. the Lakers. Maybe Zeke Nnaji too. Jamal Murray did not practice today, I’m told. – 2:57 PM

The Denver Nuggets hit their over. A line that was set with the assumption they’d have MPJ all year and get Murray back at some point. – 11:26 PM

The last couple of Barton sequences would get MPJ benched. Denver is killing it though, so Barton gets his redemption on the break. – 10:51 PM

The reason I’m so chapped about missing Murray and MPJ all year is because when Denver makes shots – like tonight – they are GLORIOUS. – 9:59 PM

Murray cashes from half court. MPJ does push-ups. pic.twitter.com/rxrjztRPHD – 8:53 PM

This is just my take from watching Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. shoot pregame over the last couple weeks. Murray looks like someone who’s ramping up to hopefully return. Porter looks like someone who’s just shooting. – 8:45 PM

New #Nuggets Ink podcast:
– We talk all things Jamal Murray/MPJ
– What’s up with Davon Reed
– My problem with the MVP poll
Leave us a review 🙏🏼. The best/most creative one will get a t-shirt that never should’ve seen the light of day.

More on this storyline
Michael Singer: Is it up to Jamal Murray if he returns? “100 percent,” Tim Connelly told @1043TheFan this morning. “We want him to feel no pressure, want him to know that the organization has his best interests in mind. … He’s done a great job in rehab, he looks really, really good.” -via Twitter @msinger / April 8, 2022
Ryan Blackburn: Jamal Murray is warming up pregame. Player development is waiting around to do some contact work as well. Michael Porter Jr. is not warming up on the main court. -via Twitter @NBABlackburn / April 7, 2022
Adrian Wojnarowski: Jamal Murray has really ramped up his preparation. He’s really aggressive in the last week on the floor. And there is coming a time here where there’s going to be a decision made between him and the organization about whether it makes sense to return in the postseason. I’m told there are still days where there’s some soreness in that knee when he gets done working out. -via YouTube / April 4, 2022
