DOC, I'M NOT SICK!

Murray powers Nuggets past Thunder to force Game 7

- 

A sick Jamal Murray may have been questionable for Game 6, but in his mind there was nothing ambiguous about his playing status.

"Absolutely not," Murray said when asked if there was any chance he'd have sat out the game.

Murray scored 25 points and powered the Denver Nuggets past the Thunder 119-107 Thursday night, sending the series back to Oklahoma City for a decisive Game 7.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander also had no doubt.

"Yeah, I knew he was going to play, obviously in a do-or-die situation for them," SGA said. "And they came out with a sense of urgency and jumped on us right away."
