First blow in the season for the reigning champions, since Michael Malone announced at a press conference that the hamstring injury of Jamal Murray would require more rest time than expected.
“ We will continue to talk with the doctors, but his injury is not an injury of a game or two “, has indicated the coach of Denver. “ This is what i know. [Son absence] will be longer than we would like, but we need to take a step back, look at the bigger picture, and make sure we put him in a position to be recovered and healthy before we come back. This is an injury that can get worse and persist, which is something we don’t want to see happen. »
Words which echo those spoken by the same Michael Malone, after the match against the Bulls which saw the Canadian leader injured: “ We are always concerned about this type of injury, because they can persist for a long time. We have to be smart to manage it “, he confided then.
Lieutenant of Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray (16.3 points, 7.4 assists) this season was aiming for his first selections in the All-Star Game and in an All-NBA Team, in particular to break the bank next summer.
