Jamal Murray Reveals His Motivations Moving Forward

Jamal Murray and the Denver Nuggets had an extremely successful season that not many people saw coming. In the second round of the playoffs, they came back from down 3-1 to defeat the Los Angeles Clippers who were seen by many as title contenders. From there, the Nuggets lost in five games to the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Finals, although it became quite clear that this team can be a dominant force for years to come. 

During a recent interview with sports journalist Ashley Brooke, Murray was asked about what motivates him to succeed, moving forward. As he explained, Murray is determined to become the basketball player in the entire world, and as of right now, he believes he is in a position to do so.

“I knew I was going to be here, but now my goal is to be the greatest,” Murray said. “I wanna be the best player in the world — that is my goal and my dream. I knew I’ve always had the talent, but to actually be here and actually have a chance at it, it gives me a lot of motivation.”

Heading into next season, the Nuggets could very well be title contenders, and this success will all hinge on whether or not Murray and Nikola Jokic can raise their game even more. Based on what they’ve shown us, this is definitely possible.

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

KYLE

Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.

“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.

But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
