Jamal Murray made history in Game 6 against the Utah Jazz and joined Michael Jordan with a historic NBA record.

Murray posted a game-high 50 points (17/24 shooting, 9/12 from beyond the arc), along with five rebounds and six assists.

Murray became the first player since Michael Jordan in the 1993 NBA Finals with three straight 40-point games in a postseason series (Jordan had 4 straight).

Murray also is the second player in the last 20 seasons with three 25-point halves in a single playoff series. The other is Allen Iverson (2001 Eastern Conference Semifinals).

Game 7 will take place on Tuesday, September 1st.
