DENVER -- The Denver Nuggets have signed first-round pick Jamal Murray and agreed to a deal with veteran Mike Miller.Murray was the seventh overall pick in the NBA draft last month. The shooting guard is expected to play a big part in turning around a franchise thats missed the playoffs the past three seasons. Murray is coming off a freshman season at Kentucky in which he averaged 20 points a game -- the highest scoring average for a Wildcats player under coach John Calipari.The 36-year-old Miller played only 373 minutes last season but served a valuable role as a mentor on a young squad. His deal reportedly is for two years.Miller was picked fifth overall by Orlando in 2000. Hes also played for Cleveland, Memphis, Miami, Washington and Minnesota.Charles Mann Youth Jersey .

The Gophers have yet to play a ranked team. Still, win out and theyll be in the Big Ten Championship game for the first time.The Gophers havent even won a share of the Big Ten since 1967. They got close in 2014 when they went into the final game with a chance to go to the championship game, but were denied by Wisconsin.Weve got a great group of seniors, and we felt like if we played well we could get to November and be in that discussion still, Minnesota coach Tracy Claeys said Tuesday on the Big Ten coaches teleconference.It makes it exciting to get into November and you still have a chance, he said. I figured with the West teams playing five road games that the winner was probably going to have two losses. We burnt ours up right away in those first two, but our kids have responded and just kept fighting and winning each week.BANGED UPNorthwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald noted how the road gets tougher in November when players are getting banged up and worn down. The Wildcats (4-5, 3-3 Big Ten) dropped a 21-7 game against Wisconsin last Saturday, one week after taking Ohio State down to the final drive before losing 24-20.Everybody goes to November beat up mentally and physically, and it comes down to which team shows up physically, mentally and executes in November, Fitzgerald said. Its not a sexy time of the year, man, this is grind it out, get it done, and obviously were off to a slow start losing our last two.He said November is where depth often gets tested because of injuries.I think some schools have a few more bullets than maybe other schools, and you have to find a way just to gget one more play and find a way to win, he said.ddddddddddddBADGERS TWEETWisconsin coach Paul Chryst said he was proud of the players who took to Twitter on Monday to post a statement about racial injustices on campus. That message came after the game on Oct. 29 Wisconsin when a fan donned a Halloween costume depicting President Barack Obama with a noose around his neck.The statement was shared by several black players on the team along with other black student-athletes. In part, it read: This incident was yet another blow and reminder that there are people in this community that may not value diverse populations.Weve got smart student-athletes and I applaud them for expressing themselves, and the way they did it, Chryst said. And I think a lot of thought went into it, and its out of love and respect for this university. They want to make it better, and I admire them. Its not easy, right? They could just sit back and say, `Its not my job, its not my responsibility.ARMSTRONGS STATUSNebraska quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr.s status for Saturdays game against Minnesota is questionable after apparently suffering a concussion last week against Ohio State.Armstrong was knocked out briefly during the second quarter after his head bounced off the turf while being tackled by Ohio State safety Malik Hooker. He was strapped to a backboard and taken to a hospital. He returned to the sidelines in street clothes in the third quarter.Tommys doing well, but as we all know he will go through that whole protocol (for) a head injury, and we dont know what that means yet as far as being available for the weekend, Nebraska coach Mike Riley said. It goes through the process, and well go day by day with it.So far, its pretty well on track. So were hopeful, but were not for sure at all.--More AP college football at www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25.---Follow Mitch Stacy at http://twitter.com/mitchstacy ' ' '
