Jamal Murray’s first half of the season was a roller coaster after he signed a max extension with the Nuggets last September.

Jamal Murray scored 32 of his season-high 45 points in the first half and led the Denver Nuggets to a 118-99 victory over the Dallas Mavericks.

The 32-year-old doesn’t anticipate he’ll need surgery. He said he will “most likely” be available to play Wednesday in New Orleans.

The Nuggets have a number of players listed on the NBA injury report for Tuesday night's game against the Mavericks.

Kyrie Irving may have struggled in his return to the Mavericks lineup, but Jason Kidd is simply happy that he's back on the court.

The Dallas Mavericks are playing a second straight game against the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night after falling 112-101 at home on Sunday. They could be getting a major boost to the lineup for this game, though, as Kyrie Irving is nearing a return.

Jamal Murray’s season-high scoring night came on the heels of Michael Malone almost shutting him down at halftime in Denver’s previous game on Sunday.

The Dallas Mavericks are set to face the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday, marking Jason Kidd and his squad’s second game in as many nights.
