Monday night's Nuggets win over the Heat was marred by a late-game foul by Nikola Jokiu0107 on Markieff Morris. Morris bumped Jokiu0107 at midcourt, turned around and took a huge blow from the reigning league MVP.
Morris was down on the court for an extended period while the two teams had to be separated. Eventually, he was able to walk off the court with the help of the Miami medical staff. Jokiu0107 was ejected from the 111-92 Nuggets win.
After the game, the Heat shared that Morris was being evaluated for a neck injury.
