The Denver Nuggets are confident that they’ll have Nikola Jokic, their best player, back when they resume their 2019-20 season.
Next Tuesday, when the Denver Nuggets depart for Orlando to resume their 2019-20 season, Nuggets head coach Mike Malone believes that franchise Nikola Jokic will be there with them.
