Through three quarters, it looked like Jamal Murray was about to turn in a subpar game.
Then, he caught fire.
The Denver Nuggets needed every single play from their point guard, and he delivered in a clutch moment, scoring 15 points in the final frame while going 5-of-5 from the field in his last five shots. Murray shot 6-of-21 from the field prior to that, showcasing everything about his game that is both incredibly exciting and frustrating to Nuggets fans.
Fortunately, he delivered when it mattered most, and the Nuggets escaped Sacramento with a win to keep their streak alive.
On the latest episode of Pickaxe and Roll, Ryan Blackburn breaks down the Denver Nuggets big win over the Sacramento Kings in which Jamal Murray hit a game-winning jumper over De’Aaron Fox. Murray and Nikola Jokic weren’t great for the Nuggets through the first three quarters, but both found a way to win in the fourth. Russell Westbrook and Aaron Gordon made an impact. The Nuggets bench was…okay, not great.
Ryan breaks it all down and answers the question everyone wants to know: is Jamal Murray back?
