However, Murray injured his ankle after he came down awkwardly on a missed contested shot at the rim two minutes into the game and walked gingerly back to the bench after a Nuggets timeout. He's missed the two games since Wednesday's win, with Denver going 1-1.

"You could tell he wasn't moving great but just having him back out there 鈥� 16 (points) six (rebounds) and six (assists) in the first game back in 22 minutes is pretty impressive. And he's not even healthy," Nuggets head coach Mike Malone said post-game Wednesday.

"Great to have Jamal back and hopefully he'll find a way to get that ankle healthy."

Denver had one of its better offensive outings of the season with Murray back in the fold, going 19-for-43 from three-point range with 37 assists to just three turnovers as Denver improved its NBA-best home record to 9-0.

Murray was welcomed with a roaring 鈥淗e鈥檚 back!鈥� from the public address announcer and a hearty ovation from the home crowd before tip-off.

The Nuggets had lost twice to the Rockets in November, including a 19-point defeat in Houston five days earlier.

While the Nuggets remain one of the best teams in the NBA 鈥� third in the Western Conference at 14-7 鈥� Murray's return from injury last season contributed to their rise from a strong regular-season team to a championship one in 2022-23.

The 26-year-old missed the 2021-22 season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his knee but played a big role in Denver's post-season success alongside two-time MVP Nikola Jokic. Murray averaged 26.1 points, 5.7 rebounds and 7.1 assists in 20 contests during the title run.

"We feel (more) confident with him," Jokic said post-game Wednesday. "We know he's going to get everybody involved and just playing with him so long, it feels normal and natural."

Murray is averaging 16.3 points and a career-high 7.3 assists over eight games this year.

While he said his hamstring was "fine," he made his feelings clear on having to deal with back-to-back injuries.

"It's just frustrating," he said Wednesday. "I'm just glad we won. Great team win, everybody played well."
