Jamal Murray keeps cooking, scores 34 points in loss
by Lucas Spence | Nuggets Correspondent | Thu, Feb 25th 11:29pm EST
Jamal Murray remained red-hot on Thursday night, scoring a game-high 34 points (12-23 FG, 4-5 FT) while hitting six three-pointers to go along with six rebounds, six assists, two blocks, and five turnovers in a team-high 42 minutes in a 112-110 loss to the Wizards.
Fantasy Impact:
Murray was leading a 3-on-1 break in the final seconds with a chance to tie or win the game, but the Nuggets bungled the possession and lost on a missed three-pointer by Facundo Campazzo. Nonetheless, Murray has now scored 22+ points in eight consecutive games and has also shown a knack in recent games for filling up the box score with some rebounds, assists, and defensive stats as well. The Blue Arrow is putting up first-round fantasy value over the past two weeks (and second-round value over the past month), so hopefully you bought low on him in January when you had the chance. The Nuggets travel to OKC to take on the Thunder on Saturday.
