Rudy Gobert was a pleasure to watch leading the Utah Jazz to their 114-104 road win against the New Orleans Pelicans with a 22-point, 13-rebound double-double. He smashed the hosts’ comeback attempt with an emphatic dunk down the stretch and blocked four shots as well.

Luka Doncic showed off his skills finishing with 31 points, 11 rebounds and four assists, but the Dallas Mavericks lost to the Washington Wizards, 132-123, at the Capital One Arena. Tomas Satoransky had 14 points, 11 dimes and eight boards for the winning side.

Nikola Jokic was the fourth European that notched a double-double with 12 points and 17 rebounds for the Denver Nuggets in their 115-99 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers at the Staples Center. The visitors snapped their three-game losing streak.

Zaza Pachulia (left Achilles), Jakob Poeltl (left hamstring), Maxi Kleber (left knee), Goran Dragic (left calf), Ante Zizic (head), Boban Marjanovic (right knee), Mario Hezonja (left leg), Luol Deng (left Achilles), Furkan Korkmaz (right knee), Frank Ntilikina (groin) and Kristaps Porzingis (left knee) were inactive on Wednesday due to injury.
