Nikola Jokic Logs His 29th Triple-Double Of The Year
2 years agoDenver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic posted his 29th triple-double of the season Monday, leading his side to a 116-111 victory over Philadelphia with 25 points, 17 rebounds and 12 assists. The Joker shot an outstanding 8-for-11 from the field and was 9-for-11 at the foul line. He also helped out on the defensive end with two blocks. Jokic's assists numbers have dropped this month, but he was back to his best here, even without the extra initiative of facing Joel Embiid, who sat out the game with a calf problem. Over the final few games of the campaign, Jokic will hope to get back to averaging a triple-double, as his lack of dimes in March has dropped his assists numbers for the season to 9.9.
