Nuggets Journal: Team crystallizes motivation as Jamal Murray question looms
Jamal Murray (27) of the Denver Nuggets walks with his arm around head coach Michael Malone at the close of the second quarter against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday, Oct. 25, 2021.On the near side of the Nuggets’ practice court, the one closest to the assembled media, Jamal Murray rose up for a handful of basic dunks.
He posted up rookie Bones Hyland, moved on to a stouter staffer and then teased a return that’s been almost a year in the making.
Murray wandered over to the seat designed for player interviews, plopped himself down and asked, innocently: “Y’all want me?”
When several media members bit, that famous Cheshire grin spread across Murray’s face.
