Jamaal Murray is a very good NBA player. Personally, I don't think he's elite but he's very good. He's had some amazing playoff performances and was very instrumental in the Nuggets winning the championship the season before this one. However, he also 'plays his way into shape' most seasons. He's never been named to an All-Star team (if what I heard on local radio is accurate). He gets hurt often (product of not being in shape?).
The rumor on Denver radio is that the Nuggets are offering a 4-year extension for $208M ($52M/yr). While I don't know much about the NBA economics, that seems like a huge overpayment for what he's done thus far. This most recent season, only Steph Curry made similar money ($51.9M). I find it difficult to believe that Murray is worth that kind of money.
