Jamal Murray’s Game 5 Explosion: Sign of a Star’s Rise or Just a Fleeting Flare?
When Norman Powell was in the game and Murray was guarding him on defense, the Nuggets were conscious of trying to push the ball up the floor before the Clippers could switch to get a better defender on Murray. Even if those possessions didnât end in a fast-break attempt, the Nuggets gave Murray a matchup with a subpar defender starting on him.
Even when Dunn was the defender, Murray was able to shake him. When the Clippers went on a run to make the game competitive in the fourth quarter, Murray created separation from Dunn and hit a fadeaway over a helping Ivica Zubac to put the game out of reach.
