The Vivint Smart Home Arena crowd wasn’t kind, but Nikola Jokic thrived on Wednesday night.

Nikola Jokic finished with 28 points and 21 rebounds, but the Denver Nuggets lost to the Utah Jazz on Wednesday. The Serb big added six assists, two blocks and one steal to his tally, but wasn’t enough for the visiting team in the Vivint Smart Home Arena.

The Joker achieved his 30th double-double of the NBA 2018-19 Regular Season despite being booed by the fans in Salt Lake City every time he touched the ball. The crowd was persistent, but so was he on the court facing fellow European Rudy Gobert in most occasions.
