Friday night had a “big fight feel” when the San Antonio Spurs faced a tough Utah Jazz squad and won 113-104. With a huge contribution from their franchise point guard in his first back-to-back 20-point games, Dejounte Murray turned heads with a 23-point performance.
What doesn’t show up on the stat sheet is the remarkable energy and effort that sparked the Spurs victory. Along with his 62.5 percent shooting, Murray finished with four steals and seven rebounds. It’s safe to say that Murray is beginning to come into his own after being told to “play freely”.
