Jamal Murray Starts Nuggets Preseason Game

The Nuggets’ preseason is spotlighting both lineup continuity and roster uncertainty: Jamal Murray is set to start against Utah after sitting out Denver’s opener, though his minutes may be limited. Lonnie Walker IV, competing for the final roster spot on a non-guaranteed deal, played only about nine minutes in the opener, and Denver’s salary-cap constraints make adding a player who may not be in the rotation costly. Forward Spencer Jones is day-to-day with a hamstring strain, an injury the team is treating cautiously given his expected role and Denver’s recent problems with power-forward availability. Looking ahead, one analysis argues Cam Johnson could be more vulnerable than Christian Braun to losing a starting spot, while another suggests rookie Keaton Wagler could challenge Clippers starter Max Strus; the latter is unrelated to Denver’s preseason situation and is omitted.

Opinions Split on Spread for Spurs Road Game vs Suns

Previews of San Antonio’s visit to Phoenix split on the spread: one favors the Spurs, citing their record covering smaller numbers and the Suns’ poor performance as underdogs, while another backs Phoenix to stay within the roughly 8-to-9-point line at home. A separate prop pick recommends Jalen Green under 1.5 made three-pointers, noting his low three-point volume even in a productive recent game.
