Nikola Jokic had one more triple-double with 36 points, 22 rebounds, and 11 assists for the Nuggets.
At the same time, Russell Westbrook became the second player in NBA history to have a triple-double with zero turnovers, and the Denver Nuggets won 132-121 over the Utah Jazz.
Westbrook finished with 16 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. He shot 7 for 7 from the field and 2 for 2 from the free-throw line to join Domantas Sabonis in the history books.
The Lithuanian big man had 17 points and 17 assists as the Sacramento Kings beat the Doncic-less Dallas Mavericks 110-100 to give Doug Christie his first win as the interim head coach after the firing of Mike Brown last week.
Croatian big man Ivica Zubac got 20 points and 16 rebounds for the Clippers, who’ve won three straight and five of six after beating the Pelicans 116-113.
