Jamal Murray’s Game 5 Explosion: Sign of a Star’s Rise or Just a Fleeting Flare?

Jamal Murray’s Game 5 Explosion: Sign of a Star’s Rise or Just a Fleeting Flare?

But that’s no way to win a championship. Just ask the Milwaukee Bucks, who were eliminated by the Indiana Pacers in five games despite several moments of brilliance from Giannis Antetokounmpo.

So, it had to feel good for the Nuggets to be leading 35-23 after the first quarter on the back of Murray’s 10 points. He looked to be in a groove right away, nailing his two 3-point attempts in the quarter.

It’s the off-the-dribble shooting that makes Murray devastating when he’s at his best. He gets jumpers off quickly and accurately, slipping behind screens and utilizing a quick step back to get off a shot anytime there is the slightest bit of hesitation from the defense. Pair that in a two-man game with Jokic and it’s unguardable.
