Even with Nikola Jokic submitting a pedestrian scoring night in Game 5, t Nuggets still beat the L.A. Clippers.

Murray makes eight 3-pointers on his way to 43 points, Russell Westbrook scores 21 off the bench and the Nuggets hand the Clippers a 131-115 defeat in Denver. Game 6 is Thursday in Inglewood.

The momentum lies with the Denver Nuggets after a dominant 131-115 win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday. The Nuggets, who escaped Game 4 with a win thanks to a buzzer-beating dunk from Aaron Gordon, made it a 3-2 series with Tuesday's win.
