Murray (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nuggets, Frankie Cartoscelli of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports. Murray will miss his first game of the 2024-25 regular season Monday due to left ankle soreness, and his next opportunity to play will be Thursday against the Lakers. He had scored in double digits in four of the Kings' last five games and averaged 13.2 points and 7.4 rebounds across 34.4 minutes per contest over that span. Murray's absence Monday should mean more minutes for Colby Jones and Jae Crowder.

Murray is questionable to play against the Nuggets on Monday due to left ankle soreness. Murray was a very late addition to the injury report, and that's a concerning sign. The Kings will already be without Kevin Huerter (shoulder) as well. If Murray is unable to suit up, the Kings could potentially turn to Jae Crowder or Doug McDermott.

Murray contributed 18 points (7-14 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and nine rebounds in 34 minutes during Thursday's 111-109 win over the Pelicans. Murray's 18 points were his most since Nov. 24. The 24-year-old guard has struggled with his efficiency from behind the arc this season, converting just 29.9 percent of his 5.5 three-point attempts per contest.

Murray logged 21 points (7-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 36 minutes during Sunday's 108-103 loss to the Nets. Murray was a consistent performer on both ends of the court for the Kings in this one, and he finished just two boards away from recording a double-double. However, this was just the third game in which Murray reached the 20-point mark. His lack of consistency on a game-to-game basis, as well as his reduced role in an offensive scheme that also features Domantas Sabonis, De'Aaron Fox and DeMar DeRozan, limits his upside.
-
Murray amassed seven points (3-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals across 22 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 109-108 loss to the Hawks. Murray saw a season-low 22 minutes as a result of fouling out in the loss. He's had a tough season for the most part, particularly with his perimeter shooting. Through 15 regular-season games, he's hitting just 29.9 percent from beyond the arc.
