The Nuggets are two wins away from their first-ever NBA Finals appearance, but the Lakers look to tie as they enjoy home court advantage
Two-time league MVP Nikola Jokic is enjoying a historic postseason but teammate Jamal Murray can be cited as the prime reason why the Denver Nuggets are just two victories away from reaching the NBA Finals for the first time.

The Nuggets can move closer to the elusive milestone on Saturday, May 20 (Sunday, May 21, Manila time) when they visit the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals.

Murray’s explosive fourth-quarter performance fueled Thursday’s 108-103 win to give Denver a 2-0 edge in the best-of-seven series.

He poured in 23 of Denver’s 32 fourth-quarter points on 6-of-7 shooting, including four three-pointers, as the Nuggets held off the Lakers. Murray finished with a game-high 37 points.
