Nikola Jokic, the best basketball player in the world was at it again Sunday night at Ball Arena to help lead the Denver Nuggets to a somewhat improbable victory over the New Orleans Pelicans. The Nuggets once 21-point first quarter lead quickly evaporated and at one point Denver was down by as many as 11-points in the fourth quarter, but then Jokic took matters into his own hands.
Jokic went into the fourth quarter with 16 points, which quickly turned to 46 points when the final buzzer went off. That’s right, Jokic scored 30 points in the fourth quarter and overtime.
