Nikola Jokic will finally see a familiar face at the NBA All-Star Game.
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray earned his first career All-Star selection Sunday, securing the honor in his ninth NBA season.
A long-awaited milestone
Murray’s selection marks his first trip to the league’s midseason showcase, adding another accolade to his career and giving Denver a second representative alongside Jokic.
For Jokic, it means the Nuggets’ star center won’t be the lone Denver headliner at the event, with Murray joining him as an All-Star for the first time.
