Murray and Gordon are an indispensable part of the Nuggets' starting lineup. Two of them are undoubtedly the second and third most important players on the roster after Nikola Jokic. Both players sat out the previous contest against the Indiana Pacers on Saturday.

Denver had no problems defeating the shorthanded Pacers in Murray and Gordon's absence. Jokic dropped a 34-point triple-double and took the Nuggets to an emphatic 117-100 victory. With Murray and Gordon out, Jalen Pickett and Payton Watson featured in the starting lineup. If the star duo returns on Tuesday, Pickett and Watson will drop back to the bench.
