Jamal Murray and the Denver Nuggets had a slow start tonight against the Toronto Raptors playing at home in the Ball Arena. But things took a shift after halftime and Murray started cooking.

In one of the lasts games scheduled for this NBA Monday, Denver Nuggets were facing the Toronto Raptors in Colorado. The Raptors took over first but the reigning champions must not be underestimated.

Jamal Murray scored only 5 points before halftime, turning the ball over and just playing poorly. But what a comeback he had when in the second half. The Raptors found zero answers for him as soon as he heated up.

In this case we can appreciate a sick dime to Zeke Nnaji in the middle of Denver's comeback. Murray's agility and craftiness are off the charts, especially when the moment calls for him. As Jamal started making his shots, Toronto's defense have no option but to send a double-team to try to control him, but that opened the door for him to dish a beautiful pass in mid-air to Nnaji for the easy dunk.

Murray finished with 26 points -12 in the fourth-, 5 rebounds and 12 assists. As clutch as it gets to overcome Toronto 125-119.
