Jamal Murray and the Denver Nuggets have made some progress on a contract extension. For now, Murray and Denver have put those discussions aside to allow the star guard to focus on the upcoming Paris Olympics.
Murray is competing for Canada on the senior level for the first time. He’s missed previous competitions due to injury. Canada is considered a favorite to medal at the Olympics for the first time since winning a silver medal in 1936.
The Nuggets guard is eligible to sign a four-year, $207.8 million extension this offseason. Murray could delay signing in hopes of making an All-NBA next season. If he did that, Murray would be eligible to sign a new five-year deal worth a projected $313.9 million.
