Nikola Jokic Posts 27-12-8 Line In Losing Effort
4 years agoDenver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic had yet another outstanding game on Monday with 27 points, 12 rebounds and eight assists, but he couldn't save the team from a 116-107 loss against the Warriors. The Joker had trouble with the three-ball, shooting 1-for-5 from long range, but he managed a decent 10-for-21 overall from the field and went 6-for-8 at the line, adding one steal and one block with four turnovers in 37 minutes. Jokic is in or around the triple-double mark each night, and he'll be back out there on Wednesday against Miami. The Heat have Bam Adebayo to guard opposing bigs, but even he had no answers to Jokic in this year's first meeting when the star center cruised to 21 points, 11 rebounds and three steals on 64 percent shooting.
