Jamal Murray makes it rain with career-high 48 points, Nuggets beat Boston
Denver Nuggets shooting guard Jamal Murray scored 48 points (19-of-30 field goals, 5-of-11 3-pointers, 5-of-5 free throws) with 5 rebounds, 4 assists, and 5 turnovers in 38.2 minutes of a 115-107 win over the Boston Celtics on Monday.
What It Means:
The points and made field goals are both new career-highs for the third-year guard, who was averaging just 13.7 points over the previous three games. The turnovers are also a season-high but owners likely aren't complaining after this impressive performance. The Nuggets visit the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday.
Murray scored a season-high 55.0 FanDuel points on Monday. He's averaging 31.7 FanDuel points through 10 games.
