The Denver Nuggets (36-20) are 2-0 in their games since the loss of Jamal Murray late in their defeat at the hands of Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors. Tonight, they have a matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies (29-26) who are surging with seven wins in their last 10 games including road victories over the Philadelphia 76ers, Milwaukee Bucks and Miami Heat.
Denver is 8-2 in their last 10 games with those two losses coming in back-to-back nights against the Boston Celtics and Warriors where they were outscored 31-8 in the final quarter against Boston before getting blasted by 21 points in the third quarter of the loss to Golden State that was eventually overshadowed by the knee injury sustained by Jamal Murray in the final minute of the game that cost him the remainder of his season.
