Welcome to Los Angeles, Jamal Murray.
The Nuggets’ second-year guard riled up the Laker fan base when L.A. coach Luke Walton claimed Murray engaged in “disrespectful” trash talk in last Friday’s game.
So on Tuesday when Murray was introduced — he was the last Denver player to be announced — the crowd at the Staples Center gave him a loud welcome typically reserved for the WWE’s finest heels.

The crowd also chimed in whenever Murray touched the ball.
