Murray suffered the injury during the Nuggets’ 116-107 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Monday night. He fell to the ground in pain, clutching his left knee and pounding the court with his hand after trying to split two Warriors defenders on a drive with 50.6 seconds remaining in the game.
Before Murray’s injury he was averaging 21.2 points, 4.0 rebounds and 4.8 assists. Nuggets are 34-20 and hold the fourth spot in the Western Conference as the season stands now.
