Jamal Murray has been a spark plug for the Denver Nuggets and Friday night he ignited something against the Los Angeles Lakers.
The second-year point guard drew the ire of Lakers players and coach Luke Walton for what they thought was unnecessary trash talk at the end of the Nuggets' 125-116 victory. Murray shrugged off the criticism, but he won't be able to avoid it for long.
"That's the type of player he is but we got another shot at them Tuesday, so I look forward to it," Lakers rookie Kyle Kuzma said after Friday's game.
