In a game that had everything—drama, superstars, and a nail-biting finish—Jamal Murray delivered the moment of the night with a clutch block that sealed the Denver Nuggets’ incredible comeback against the Golden State Warriors.
With mere seconds left on the clock and the Warriors down by one, Stephen Curry drove into the lane, poised to put Golden State back on top. But just as Curry released what looked like the game-winning floater, Murray came flying in, rejecting the shot with authority. The ball rocketed off the backboard, and the Nuggets regained possession, sending the crowd into a frenzy.
Murray’s block wasn’t just about timing; it was about heart and hustle. Known for his offensive heroics, the star guard showed he’s just as lethal on the defensive end when the game is on the line.
Nikola Jokic, who led the team in points and assists, called the play “the difference-maker” in his postgame interview. “That block changed everything. Jamal proved he’s not just an elite scorer—he’s a complete player.”
The Warriors, who had controlled much of the game thanks to Curry’s deep shooting and Klay Thompson’s mid-range mastery, were left stunned as their final push was thwarted.
This epic block is already being talked about as one of the season’s defining moments. If you haven’t seen it, you NEED to check the replay—it’s pure basketball poetry. The Nuggets continue to prove they’re the team to beat, and Jamal Murray just gave us another reason why.
