CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray took to Twitter after a 16-point loss to Golden State on Tuesday night, vowing to be better.
''Put that game on me...,'' Murray tweeted. ''I gotta be better on both ends. Nuggets fans, we'll be alright!!''
And they were.
Murray lived up to his promise in his return to the court Thursday night, hitting a running, 13-footer off one foot from the baseline with 5.1 seconds to help Denver overcame an eight-point fourth quarter deficit and beat the Charlotte Hornets 114-112.
''My energy was different and I was more aggressive,'' Murray said.
