NBA Finals: Never forget Jamal Murray, the NBA's only non-All-Star superstar

Nikola Jokic deservedly received all 11 votes for the 2023 NBA Finals MVP award in leading the Denver Nuggets to the franchise's first championship, but let us never forget the contributions of his pick-and-roll partner, Jamal Murray, who as of this moment is the single greatest player never to make an All-Star team.

That will not last, of course, so long as the 26-year-old point guard continues to perform to his capabilities. Never again should he finish 12th in All-Star voting among Western Conference guards, as he did in 2021, prior to tearing his left ACL.
