The Denver Nuggets have an incredible team built around two-time MVP Nikola Jokic. Jamal Murray and Jokic have been a dominant duo for years, and if Murray can return to the form he was in the NBA playoffs in 2019, this duo may be unstoppable.

While healthy, Murray is a prolific scorer who can take over games. Having Murray on the floor provides space for Jokic to work his magic. With Murray back in the lineup, the Nuggets will be a contender for the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference.

During his last fully healthy before his injury, Murray averaged 21 points, five assists, and four rebounds per game on 48 percent shooting from the field and 41 percent shooting from 3-point range.
