Jamal Murray waited three long years to be back in the postseason. The payoff was well worth it. Back in the playoffs for the first time since 2020 following a serious knee injury, Murray made up for lost time in Game 2 of the Denver Nuggets’ First Round series with a scintillating performance against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Murray scored every way imaginable, including spot-up and step-back 3-pointers, midrange fadeaways and a steal on defense that turned into an emphatic fast-break throwdown. Murray posted a team-high 40 points on 13 of 22 shooting — 6 of 10 from downtown — while adding three rebounds, five assists and two steals in the 122-113 victory on April 19, 2023, allowing the Nuggets to take a 2-0 series lead.
