Jamal Murray was carried off the court after suffering an ankle injury during the Denver Nuggets’ game against the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday night.

Murray rolled his left ankle as he landed following a block attempt on a close-out in the second quarter.

Murray was helped off the court by teammates after going down with his ankle injury.

Murray underwent X-rays on his left foot after getting hurt and was not putting weight on it.

The Denver guard was 2-of-7 for five points with two steals in 15 minutes prior to his injury. The 22-year-old guard agreed to a $170 million extension with the Nuggets over the summer.
