Nuggets coach Michael Malone sympathizes with NBA schedule makers: “The league has an impossible job”

MILWAUKEE – Jamal Murray, clad in sweatpants and a sweatshirt, sat at his locker room stall smiling in the postgame locker room.

Wearing similar attire, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope munched away on a postgame meal.

Nikola Jokic, who sat at the end of Denver’s bench on Wednesday night in a jacket and dark jeans, had already vacated the locker room by the time the doors opened to media members.

All three players were out on Wednesday night, Denver’s second game of a back-to-back, which began Tuesday night in New Orleans. Michael Porter Jr.’s absence had nothing to do with rest or injury.
