Jamal Murray

Jamal Murray’s soaring confidence has arrived at the perfect time for the West-leading Denver Nuggets. Murray put the Atlanta Hawks and rest of the NBA on notice with a scorching performance from downtown as he went to work on Clint Capela, creating space with some smooth handles before burying a step-back triple. It was one of seven 3-pointers in 12 tries for Murray, who posted a season-best 41 points to go with five rebounds and seven assists in Denver’s 128-108 win on February 4, 2023.
