After a hard-fought 106-103 win over Toronto in their first game without Nikola Jokic, the Denver Nuggets continue their injury-plagued road trip against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday, January 2. Jamal Murray remains the focal point, but a depleted roster faces a formidable home opponent.

Nuggets endure injuries with Murray leading charge

The Denver Nuggets secured a narrow 106-103 victory over the Toronto Raptors in their first game without star center Nikola Jokić, who is sidelined for at least four weeks due to a left knee hyperextension. With multiple starters injured, point guard Jamal Murray emerged as the team's lone healthy starter, delivering key contributions amid a challenging road trip. The win highlights Denver's resilience, though additional injuries complicate their Western Conference standing.
