It was the longest shot of Murray’s career and the longest by any player in the postseason since Darius Miller’s 72-foot heave of the New Orleans Pelicans in 2018. Murray finished the half with 6 assists, 2 rebounds and a steal.

Led by Aaron Gordon’s 14 points (6 for 6), the Nuggets shot 64.3% as a team, their best field goal percentage in a playoff half.

Anthony Edwards leads all scorers with 23 points.

If Denver wins, it will even be the series at two games each.
