Nikola Jokic Has Big Game With Season-High 35 Points
3 years agoDenver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic shot 15-for-26 from the field en route to a season-high 35 points in Monday's 111-101 loss to Dallas, adding 16 rebounds to his tally with six assists, two blocks and three turnovers. Jokic was 2-for-6 from three-point land and 3-for-6 at the line. The Mavericks are getting crushed by centers this season and Jokic probably can't wait for a rematch. There will be a lot of work to be done before that, though, starting with Thursday's matchup against Philadelphia. This is a completely different matchup for Jokic, as the Sixers have limited opposing centers to league-low 41.5 percent shooting with 17.7 points allowed per 48 minutes.
