The Denver Nuggets will host the Phoenix Suns for a Christmas matchup. The two Western Conference heavyweights will duke it out to cap off a five-game slate. Nikola Jokic will be looking to take down one of the top teams in the league and will be with Jamal Murray in his bid to do that.

With Devin Booker expected to return for the Suns after missing three games, the Nuggets are also getting back Murray after battling a foot injury. He played in the Nuggets' last game but missed the one before that. The 25-year-old guard brings a scoring and playmaking knack that Denver will need to compete with the Suns.

On the official NBA injury report, Murray was listed as probable, so there was a good chance he'd suit up in the game anyway. Although he is still looking to get back to full form after missing the entirety of last season, he has been a key player for the title hopefuls. In 26 games this season, Murray is averaging 17.8 points, a career-high 5.7 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game while shooting 44.1 percent from the field and 34.8 percent from deep.

Nikola Jokic is enjoying another spectacular season and is leading one of the very best offenses in the league. With Jamal Murray by his side, the Nuggets should be able to pick up a win at home on Christmas Day.
