Nikola Jokic notched a team-high 26 points in the Denver Nuggets victory over the Toronto Raptors. Both teams faced various injury issues in the NBA Conference leaders’ matchup, but the 23-year-old Serb was there and led his team to the “W”.
The home team trailed 70-57 in the third quarter, but managed to turn the game around in the fourth. Jokic was instrumental down the stretch and finished up with 26 points, nine rebounds, four assists and two steals in 35 minutes.
