Although the team suffered a crushing defeat, the Nuggets wings still maintained a good form?

In the previous NBA Western Conference semi-finals G7, the Oklahoma City Thunder, who played at home, defeated the Denver Nuggets 125-93. After this game, the Thunder locked the total score of the series at 4-3 and successfully advanced to the Western Conference Finals. Next, the Thunder will compete with the Minnesota Timberwolves for a finals, while the Nuggets will be out of the Western Conference semi-finals for two consecutive seasons.

Although the Nuggets lost the game, the team's starting wing star Christian Braun is still worthy of recognition. Braun played 32 minutes and 47 seconds in the game, made 7 of 14 shots, 2 of 9 from outside the three-point line, and 3 of 4 free throws, and scored 19 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal. He also had 2 turnovers and 5 fouls, with a plus-negative value of -28. Braun has maintained good efficiency on the offensive end, and he has seized few shooting opportunities and demonstrated his outstanding scoring ability. With the team's cool touch, his outstanding performance can also be regarded as helping the team maintain the lower limit. Braun has shown certain characteristics in other aspects, and he has also shown certain passing and support abilities. He has also made certain contributions to the defensive end. Braun is one of the few highlights of the Nuggets in this game. If it weren't for his outstanding performance, considering the status of other players, we wouldn't know how many points the Nuggets would lose.

In the NBA regular season this season, Braun played a total of 79 games in 82 games, averaging 33.9 minutes per game, averaging 15.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.5 blocks, and 1 turnover and 2.2 fouls. He shot 58% from the field, 39.7% from three-point shooting percentage and 82.7% from free throws. In the playoffs, Braun averaged 38.9 minutes in 14 games, with averaging 12.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 0.7 blocks, 1 turnover and 3.4 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 45.3%, a three-point shooting percentage of 29.6%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 71%.

Judging from the overall performance of the playoffs, although Braun's condition and feel are somewhat ups and downs, he is still at a good level overall. He is able to maintain good offensive efficiency while his tactical status is not stable and provides a lot of support to the team on the offensive end. On the other hand, Braun is able to maintain sufficient concentration on the defensive end, and he is also a core figure who often has to defend his opponents. As a young player, it is already quite good to have such performance. I wonder if Braun can perform better in future games with the accumulation of experience and ability improvement. Can he play a more important role in the team's lineup?
