Nuggets Nikola Jokic sheds wrist brace, but isn’t 100 percent

Nikola Jokic suffered a badly sprained left wrist against the Miami Heat in December and wore a brace on that wrist ever since. That was, until Thursday, when Jokic played without the brace for the first time when the Nuggets played Indiana in London.

He looked as if he didn’t need it, scoring 22 points with 10 rebounds and seven assists in 30 minutes. He’s going to play without it again on Monday against Orlando.

It doesn’t however, mean his wrist is out of the woods.

“I cannot go to push-up position,” Jokic said.
