The Nuggets stayed undefeated at home on Wednesday night, beating the Heat, 122-112. Nikola Jokic finished with 33 points, 15 rebounds, and 16 assists, good for his fifth triple-double of the season, through just seven games.
The Joker was the main storyline in this one, making history in a variety of ways. This was the 78th game of his career, leading both teams in points, rebounds, and assists, the most such games since the ABA/NBA merger in 1976, with 10 more such games than LeBron James.
This is also Jokic’s seventh career game with 30+ points, 15+ rebounds, and 15+ assists.
