TORONTO — Jamal Murray’s postgame news conferences during the Nuggets’ annual trips to Canada have become almost as big a deal as the games themselves. Especially now that he’s an NBA champion.

In his latest, after scoring 20 points in a 113-104 win over the Raptors on Wednesday night, Murray reaffirmed his plan to join Team Canada at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris — if he stays healthy between now and then.

That’s easier said than done, if the first two months of this season are any indicator.

“I’m still trying to get there (to the level I want to play at),” the Nuggets point guard said.
