Team's second-leading scorer came down awkwardly on his ankle Wednesday night

Nuggets coach Mike Malone said the team does not expect Jamal Murray back for "the foreseeable future" after the guard injured his left ankle Wednesday night against the Hornets.

Considering how it looked when it happened, this could have been much worse.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray was ruled out for the rest of the game against the Charlotte Hornets after leaving late in the first half after rolling his left ankle.
