Michael Malone made it sound like he didn’t expect Jamal Murray (36 minutes tonight) to play tomorrow. He said TBD on Nikola Jokic and KCP. Malone added KCP didn’t feel great today, and at one point, he didn’t even expect him to play tonight. – 12:49 AM

The Pelican stretch the lead to 16 a few minutes into the third. Nuggets not named Jamal Murray are 0-14 from 3. Porter’s 0-6. It’s not Denver’s only issue tonight, but it ain’t helping. – 11:35 PM

Own goal on the Nuggets’ first defensive possession of the night. Jamal Murray gets to the line on Denver’s first offensive possession and hits all three of his free throws. – 10:12 PM

Tough matchup tonight without Jokić, but not an impossible one. Herb Jones will be guarding Jamal Murray. Game probably comes down to that matchup. – 9:54 PM

More on this storyline
Ryan Blackburn: Michael Malone on Nikola and Jamal as a playoff duo: “To have Jamal back after two seasons that he’s missed, that just gives us more firepower.” “When the game is on the line, Nikola draws so much attention.” Said that he hopes people have forgotten how good Jamal is. -via Twitter @NBABlackburn / March 29, 2023
Ryan Blackburn: Jamal Murray on the keys to running offense against Jrue Holiday: “Can’t play with it too much. Gotta play the angles right. I look to do a lot of setups. Quick thinking. Quick reaction.” -via Twitter @NBABlackburn / March 24, 2023
Ryan Blackburn: Asked Malone about how Aaron Gordon’s role has changed as Murray/MPJ have taken more offensive responsibility. He pushed back on the role shift but also said: “I think lately, whether it’s human nature or not…all of our guys have kinda taken a deep breath, come up for air.” -via Twitter @NBABlackburn / March 24, 2023
