More on this storyline
Murray has until Oct. 23 to agree to a three-year, $145 million extension. But Booth has expected that Murray will wait until next summer because he could earn the league’s supermax should he land on an All-NBA team. The Nuggets expect that will happen considering Murray’s stellar play during the team’s championship run and that he no longer has any restrictions surrounding his surgically repaired ACL in his left knee. “It’s going to be a hit to our salary cap,” Booth said. “But I love seeing people reach their potential when they play the way he can.” -via SportsKeeda / October 7, 2023
