Jamal Murray, Donovan Mitchell join Allen Iverson for 50 point playoff games

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray and Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell joined Philadelphia 76ers legend Allen Iverson in playoff history.

Philadelphia 76ers legendary guard Allen Iverson has made a huge impact on the history of basketball due to his scoring ability. Despite being so small in stature, he was able to become one of the most explosive scorers in the history of the game on his way to the Hall of Fame.

His impact on the playoffs is just as great as he has had some historic playoff runs in the NBA. On Sunday night, he was joined by a couple of young NBA stars in the making.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray had 50 points in Sunday’s win over the Utah Jazz to help the team force a Game 7. Murray and Jazz star Donovan Mitchell now both have multiple gamed of 50+ points in this series. They both joined Iverson and Michael Jordan as the only players to have multiple games of 50+ points in a single playoff series.

Murray and Mitchell have been going back and forth in this series on the basketball court and they both have reminded fans of Iverson with their scoring ability. It will be interesting to see what the two of them have left for a Game 7. [lawrence-related id=37294,37291,37266]
