Jamie Murray, the star of the Denver Nuggets, lives a humble life that matches his character.
Murray, who in 2019 inked a five-year, $170 million contract, resides in an $870,000 home in the city’s Jefferson Park district.

The four-story home, which is only a mile from Ball Arena, features three bedrooms, a tiny dining area, and a rooftop terrace with breathtaking views of the city and mountains.
Compared to many of the enormous homes possessed by other NBA players, it is a long cry.
However, the home is appropriate for the low-key Murray, a native of a small Canadian town, is frequently eclipsed by Nuggets center Nikola Jokic and has never been chosen as an NBA All-Star.
In fact, he frequently shows up in loose gray sweatpants and a white T-shirt for post-match interviews.

The townhouse is a big improvement from the Schmidt’s Creek Rosebud Motel, where he stayed for two years while he was a burgeoning basketball star in Canada.
The Netflix series Schmidt’s Creek, which stars Eugene Levy and his son Daniel Levy, narrates the tale of the previously wealthy Rose family, who are now forced to live in a run-down motel in a town they originally acquired as a joke.
Jesse Tipping, the president of Orangeville Prep and the Athlete Institute Basketball Academy, has listed the real-life Rosebud Motel for sale.
In order to accommodate recruits for what has grown to be Canada’s most successful prep school basketball program, Tipping bought the motel in 2011.

Murray and Kyle Alexander, who was invited to the Miami Heat training camp, stayed there for two years before Murray enrolled at Kentucky University.
As a significant talent who was already well-known in the area, we were very excited when Murray and his family decided to move to Orangeville. “He was extremely motivated,” Tipping stated to Toronto Life.
“I saw him practicing step-back three-pointers in the gym one day. however, from about half-court. It was a ridiculous shot.
“I thought, ‘Why are you practicing this so much?’ after he must have attempted it fifty times. When will you ever get a chance to take this picture?
Of course, we attended a tournament the next weekend.
