Murray scored 25 points (6-13 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 8-8 Ft) while adding five assists, two steals and two blocks in 29 minutes during Thursday's 132-126 preseason win over the Timberwolves.
The Nuggets used their full starting lineup Thursday, and Murray led the group in scoring, although Julian Strawther erupted for 33 off the bench for Denver. Murray hasn't played more than 65 games in a regular season since 2018-19, and staying healthy will be the most important goal in 2024-25 for the 27-year-old point guard. However, he's remained productive when he's been on the court, averaging at least 20.0 points, 4.0 assists, 4.0 boards, 2.5 threes and 1.0 steals in three straight seasons.
