According to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype, confirmed by the Sacramento Kings, Keegan Murray has suffered a mild calf strain. An MRI was used for this diagnosis.

He will be re-evaluated in one week.

The 25-year-old has only appeared in 15 games this season, as he missed the first 15 games due to rehabbing from thumb surgery that took place in the preseason.

For Murray, he is usually a very healthy player. The least amount of games he has played in a season was 76 games (2024-25 season).

This season, he is averaging 14.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.5 steals, and 1.7 blocks per game.

According to ESPN’s Dave McMenamin, the Los Angeles Lakers have learned that their third option has suffered a grade 2 gastrocnemius calf strain and will be sidelined for four weeks. The 27-year-old will be re-evaluated after that period of time.

Reaves suffered the injury during the Lakers loss to the Houston Rockets on Christmas Day. Before being ruled out for the remainder of the game, he put up 12 points off 5/8 shooting in 15 minutes.

While this MRI is a definite negative, the bright side of this scan confirms that this has nothing to do with the mild calf strain that caused him to miss three games earlier in the month.

Right now, the Lakers are 19-10 and hold the fourth seed in the Western Conference.

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Denver Nuggets will be without their veteran shooter for four-to-six weeks. Cam Johnson suffered a hyperextended right knee.

The injury occurred during Tuesday’s loss to the Dallas Mavericks, as Johnson only appeared in 24 minutes that saw him post eight points, two rebounds, and three assists.

Johnson joins Aaron Gordon, who is dealing with a hamstring strain, and Christian Braun, who is dealing with a severe ankle sprain, on the injury report for Denver.

Even with all these injuries, Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets are 22-8 and third in the Western Conference.
