Murray can take over a game with his scoring or passing, forming arguably the league’s most dynamic duo with three-time MVP Nikola Jokic. While many guards struggle off-ball, he’s mastered the art alongside the latter, thriving as a cutter and shooting off screens and on the move.
A tough-shot taker and maker who relishes big moments, there are few players you can trust more in crunch time than Murray. He’s willing to fire away contested and uncontested attempts – almost to a fault – making him susceptible to cold streaks. But when right, the Nuggets combo guard has the talent to trade buckets with any of the league’s stars.
