Trey Murphy III makes history in Pelicans vs nuggets

New Orleans Pelicans forward Trey Murphy III has continued to impress its fourth year in the NBA. The earlier elections in the first round put career heights in points, rebounds and assists last season, and this year he plays even better. Murphy III made history on Monday night against Denver Nuggets by tying the franchise post for most points made on a quarter.

Former Pelican Anthony Davis set the record in 2017 by getting 24 points against Oklahoma City Thunder. Murphy III made 24 during the third quarter to help New Orleans erase a two -digit deficit compared to Nuggets.

The former Virginia Standout signed a four-year, $ 112 million rookie extension with the Pelicans this summer, ensuring that Sharpshooter remains in New Orleans for the foreseeable future. When he entered the season, 6-foot-9 Wingman was an average of 11.5 points for his career. This year he has almost doubled it to 22.1 points per match.

Murphy III told reporters after signing his extension how much it meant for him to succeed in the NBA.

“When I finally signed the paper, I was just thinking about all the mornings and nights that I spent in the gym and all the times in which I struggled, didn’t play, went to the G-league, went through a month of January and played for a minute, everything is worth That, everything is worth it, just from signing it, being able to take care of my family, ”said Murphy III.

Despite Pelican’s 12-37 record that enters Monday’s game, New Orleans knows that their future is light with Murphy III, which continues its successful increase in the NBA.
