Jamal Murray had the game of a lifetime on Sunday night, and he credits the emotional pain he played through with helping to propel him.
Murray had a lights-out shooting night, going 17-of-24 from the floor (including 9-of-12 from three) on his way to scoring 50 points in a 119–107 win to force a Game 7 against the Jazz.
It was Murray’s second 50-point game of the series. In the regular season, he never scored more than 39 points in a game and topped 30 just six times. He’s taken it to another level in the last three games of this playoff series, though.
