The Nuggets prevailed 108-103 in a more than even game. Los Angeles will seek to become strong at home this Saturday in the next game.

With an unstoppable Jamal Murray in the fourth quarter, the Denver Nuggets beat the Los Angeles Lakers 108-103 on Thursday night and took a 2-0 lead in the NBA Western Conference finals.

In a more than even game that was not resolved until the last seconds, the difference came from Murray, who outshone even his teammate and team figure, Nikola Jokic, who usually leads the scoring table in each match.

This time, the ’27’ of the Nuggets led with 37 points (6-14 on 3-pointers, 5-10 on 2-pointers and 9-10 on 3-pointers), 10 rebounds, five assists and four steals. His highest point was in the last quarter, where he contributed nothing more and nothing less than 23 points.

However, the numbers of the Serbian pivot were not negligible. Without going any further, he closed his list with a triple double: 23 points, 17 rebounds and 12 assists.

As for the visiting franchise, LeBron James converted with 22 points, grabbed nine rebounds and provided 10 assists. Although he stood out, he was far from exhibiting an outstanding level compared to the rest of his teammates.

Austin Reaves (22 points and five assists), Rui Hachimura (21 points) and Anthony Davis (18 points, 14 rebounds and four assists) also had a good night for the Lakers.

After two games at the Pepsi Center in Colorado, the third match of these finals will move to the Crypto.com Arena in California. Starting at 9:30 p.m. (Argentine time) this Saturday, the Lakers will seek to become strong at home and get their first victory of the series.
