    Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Double-double against Spurs

    Murray had 15 points (6-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt), four rebounds, 10 assists and one steal across 46 minutes during Saturday's 136-134 overtime win over San Antonio.

    The double-double was his 18th of the season as Murray extends his career high. The 29-year-old point guard has scored in double digits in 10 straight games, averaging 26.1 points, 7.5 assists, 4.9 boards and 4.1 threes over that stretch.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Drops 21 in OT win

    Braun accumulated 21 points (7-16 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one block over 39 minutes during Saturday's 136-134 overtime victory over the Spurs.

    The fourth-year wing topped 20 points for the first time since March 18, when he hit for 26 points against the Grizzlies, while the five made three-pointers were a season high. Braun has scored in double digits in 12 of the last 13 contests, averaging 15.3 points, 4.7 boards, 2.5 assists and 1.6 threes over that span.

  • Nikola Jokic C | DEN

    Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Pours in 40 against Wemby

    Jokic notched 40 points (13-25 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 13-15 FT), eight rebounds, 13 assists and three blocks in 44 minutes during Saturday's 136-134 overtime win over San Antonio.

    The 31-year-old won the duel of superstar centers, as Victor Wembanyama delivered 34 points, 18 boards, seven assists and five blocks in a losing effort. Jokic's double-double was his 53rd of the season, moving him into a tie for the league lead with Karl-Anthony Towns, and he has a seven-game double-double streak going in which he's produced five triple-doubles while averaging 25.9 points, 15.3 rebounds, 13.6 assists, 1.4 threes and 1.3 combined steals and blocks.

  • Spurs' Stephon Castle: Strikes for 20 in OT loss

    Castle provided 20 points (9-18 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and nine assists across 40 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 136-134 overtime loss to the Nuggets.

    The second-year guard scored 20-plus points for the fourth time in the last five games while just missing his fourth double-digit assist performance during that stretch. Castle's hot streak has seen him average 19.6 points, 9.0 assists, 6.8 boards and 2.0 threes as he gears up for his first career postseason run.

  • Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Loses OT duel with Joker

    Wembanyama posted 34 points (8-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 16-17 FT), 18 rebounds, seven assists, five blocks and one steal over 40 minutes during Saturday's 136-134 overtime loss to the Nuggets.

    The third-year superstar led the Spurs in scoring en route to his 41st double-double of the season, but Wembanyama was just a little less productive than Nikola Jokic, who led all scorers on the afternoon with 40 points. Wemby has pulled down at least 15 boards in six straight appearances, all double-doubles, and over that stretch he's averaging a massive 30.7 points, 16.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 4.0 blocks, 1.5 threes and 1.2 steals as San Antonio tries to chase down OKC for the top seed in the Western Conference.

    Adebayo provided 14 points (3-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 24 minutes during Saturday's 152-136 win over the Wizards.

    It wasn't another 83-point eruption, but Adebayo let his teammates handle the scoring load this time around against Washington while coming within shouting distance of his ninth career triple-double. Adebayo saw his double-double streak snapped at five, and over his last 10 contests the 28-year-old center is averaging 21.0 points, 11.4 boards, 3.9 assists, 1.9 threes and 1.5 steals.

    Heat's Andrew Wiggins: Hits for 21 in wild win

    The veteran forward produced his best scoring effort since he dropped 28 points on the Grizzlies on Feb. 21. Wiggins has scored at least 12 points in six straight games, averaging 14.5 points, 4.0 boards, 2.8 threes, 2.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks during that span.
