It’s insane how consistent Nikola Jokiu0107 is every single night.
In the face of a lot of MVP discussion and an injury to Jamal Murray, Jokiu0107 continues to elevate the Denver Nuggets to levels they previously haven’t achieved. Tonight’s foe, the Houston Rockets, had no answer for the Joker, as he dominated the paint en route to a 128-99 blowout win. Jokiu0107 had 29 points, 16 rebounds, and seven assists on 10-of-12 shooting, including 8-of-9 from free throw range. He didn’t have any turnovers. It was a masterful performance.
The Nuggets are rediscovering their identity with Jamal Murray sidelined, and having a player like Jokiu0107 makes that transition easier on everyone else.
