ESPN's Brian Windhorst remarked, "I will not be shocked," regarding the possibility of Murray facing suspension.

During the second quarter of Monday night's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Canadian guard threw a heating pack onto the court out of frustration. The refereeing crew did not notice this action.

Crew Chief Marc Davis admitted post-game that if the officiating crew had observed the item coming from the bench of one of the Nuggets players, the incident would have been reviewed, and Murray would have received a technical foul.

The Nuggets find themselves trailing 0-2 in the series after suffering defeats in both games at home.
