The Denver Nuggets took care of the Indiana Pacers, winning 135-120. Nikola Jokic had a solid game recording 24 points, eight rebounds and 13 assists.

 

On this night, however, Jokic wouldn’t be the main attraction. That honor belonged to Jamal Murray who dropped 52 points on 19-25 from the field, including 10-11 from three-point range.

On top of having a sizzling performance, Murray’s 52 points led to the Denver Nuggets making NBA history. This was the third time a Nuggets player scored at least 50 in a game this season. The other two players are Jokic and Aaron Gordon.

The Nuggets join the 1961-62 Los Angeles Lakers and the 2018-19 Golden State Warriors as the only teams to achieve this feat.
