Jokic triple-double leads Nuggets past Raptors 106-103

TORONTO -- Nikola Jokic got his second triple-double of the season to help the injury-riddled Denver Nuggets overcome another key absence.

Jokic capped a big night with three free throws in the final seven seconds, Kyle Lowry missed a 3-pointer at the buzzer and the Nuggets survived the loss of leading scorer Gary Harris to beat the Toronto Raptors 106-103 on Monday night.

"To beat the number one team in the East means a lot to us," Jokic said.

Jokic made it 104-103 with a free throw with 7.
