Game Preview

The Denver Nuggets’ Jamal Murray had been anxious to make his postseason return.

The last two seasons, Murray was on the sidelines, recovering from a torn left anterior cruciate ligament, as the Nuggets appeared in the playoffs.

“That was tough, just sitting down watching,” Murray said.
