Not playing Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray vs. the tanking Trail Blazers tonight is more proof the Nuggets’ top priority right now is not the #1 seed. It’s health. If the Nuggets do get #1 in the West, great, but it’s not their top focus. – 7:24 PM

Michael Malone says Jamal Murray turned his ankle. He didn’t have much more to say but didn’t seem overly concerned. – 11:46 PM

Jamal Murray sprains his left ankle with under a minute to go in a game that was already over. He heads to the locker room early but walks there under his own power. Doesn’t look too bad. – 11:22 PM

Jamal Murray getting hurt is the last thing we needed to see, walking gingerly to the bench after rolling his left ankle. – 11:22 PM

What a weird challenge from Michael Malone. That was Jamal Murray’s first foul. We’re not even halfway through the second quarter. That call seemed obvious in real-time. And this is shaping up to be a close game. – 9:47 PM
