Jamal Murray delivered the dagger with 1:46 to play. As the shot clock was winding down, the Nuggets’ 22-year-old point guard took two dribbles to his left, stepped sideways to create space, got Steven Adams to bite on a pump fake and flicked in a 3. The shot stretched Denver’s lead to double digits and capped what Nuggets coach Michael…...

Jamal Murray is shooting a hair under 38 percent from three this season and last week against the Thunder and Jazz, Murray shot a combined 8-15 from beyond the arc. On the season, Murray is shooting 40 percent from distance on wide-open three-point field goals, the same percentage Klay Thompson is hitting on shots of that same variety. But in…...

A spirited 21-6 run to open the fourth quarter captained by backup point guard Monte Morris had the Nuggets leading the Bucks by four points with 5:36 remaining in regulation after a Trey Lyles lay-in. Thanks to stellar play from its bench, Denver was in position to add a victory over Most Valuable Player candidate Giannis Antetokounmpo and the now 10-3 Bucks…...

When he pulls the trigger with zero hesitation, capitalizing on…...

It was impossible not to notice DeVaughn Akoon-Purcell, dreadlocks flowing off his powerful 6-foot-5 frame, as he raced downcourt at Summer League.

Nuggets executives spoke highly of the 6-foot-5 wing in the lead-up to Summer League but he was still a…...

It’s been just over two years since Isaiah Thomas warned general managers and owners around the league that they “better bring out the Brinks truck” if they wanted to secure his services once he hit the free agent market.

Torrey Craig, who was under the basket…...
