Jamal Murray is back.
Murray tore his ACL in the final weeks of the 2020-21 regular season, and then missed all of last year recovering from it. He looked back to his old self this season, averaging 20 points and 6.2 assists in 65 games, but it was his performance on Wednesday night that reminded fans of how good Murray can be in the postseason.
“He left a piece of him out there tonight,” Nuggets coach Michael Malone said. “For 39 minutes, I thought he was just so impactful across the board. A passionate, heartfelt performance. Just the fact that he missed the last two postseasons, just to have him back and to play at that level … I thought Jamal was terrific.”
But it was a late run, fueled by Murray and Michael Porter Jr that kept the Timberwolves at bay and got them the nine-point win.
