Even though Jokic and the Nuggets had their work cut out for them against the Dubs, the Serbian star almost willed his team to victory.
Despite 15 points, 5 boards and 5 assists from Bogdan Bogdanovic the Spurs managed to come from behind and beat the Kings 107-100 in Sacramento.
Davis Bertans had a career-high 28 points including 6 threes in the win.
Giannis Antetokounmpo was clearly fatigued in a 109-96 loss to the Pacers. The “Greek Freak” had 17 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block.
Domantas Sabonis had a double-double, 17 points and 10 rebounds for the winning side.
