"Christian Braun's Explosive Performance Propels Nuggets to Victory in NBA Finals Game 3"

Christian Braun's Breakout Performance Ignites Nuggets in NBA Finals Game 3

Rookie Christian Braun provided a much-needed spark for the Denver Nuggets in Game 3 of the NBA Finals, scoring 15 points and holding up defensively against Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler. While Nikola Jokić and Jamal Murray made history with their triple-doubles, Braun's infusion of energy turned the game into a laugher and saved Denver's supporting cast from facing a load of questions. With only Aaron Gordon complementing their stars in Game 3, the Nuggets needed another outlet to bust Miami's defense whenever it went zone and/or overloaded on Jokić and Murray's two-man game. Braun answered the call, cutting for four of his seven baskets on just eight shots.
