Nikola Jokic Has Strong Showing In Loss Against USA
4 months agoDenver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic was up to his usual heroics on Thursday but it came just short of a historic win over the powerhouse United States. The three-time MVP posted 17 points, 11 assists, five rebounds, one steal, and one block in 37 minutes. He very rarely went to the bench in this game as Serbia needed his playmaking and presence against a star-studded roster. His shooting performance wasn't what we're used to seeing as he went 7-for-17 from the floor and 0-for-6 from downtown, but his playmaking was on full display as the rest of the team shot 15-for-33 from deep.
