Jamal Murray poured in 52 points to propel Denver to a 135-120 NBA victory over the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday as the Nuggets continued to thrive on the road.

Denver, losers of their last four home games, have now won eight in a row on the road.

Murray, who was questionable to start after spraining his right ankle on Monday, was lethal from three-point range.

He connected on 10 of 11 from beyond the arc and made 19 of his 25 attempts overall in his fifth career 50-point game, including two in the playoffs.

"I hope people understand, it's not the 52 points, it's the 19 of 25, 10 for 11 from three, four for five from the free throw line. That is insane efficiency," Nuggets coach David Adelman said.

"It's, I'm guessing, one of the most efficient 50-point games of all time."
