Serbian center Nikola Jokic provided another great game in Denver’s victory over the New York Knicks.
In just 27 minutes on the field, he scored 32 points with 11 rebounds and five assists.
After three sections, everything was already resolved, so by the decision of coach Mike Malone, he sat on the bench for the entire last quarter.
- I was ready to play. We had the advantage and the coach decided not to throw me in. If they need me, I’m here. If not, I’ll sit down, the Joker said.
Despite the excellent game, Jokic found one objection.
- They played fast. They kept running. We tried to control the game, we played picken roll well. They shot badly, and we shot well. The only thing we have to fix are the jumps, the Serbian center concluded.
Zeke Nnaji achieved a career record with 21 points in this match.
- He threw five threes, he jumped. The defensive player had to get closer to him, which opened up space for others. He played well, he said.
Denver currently has a half-time score of 11-11.
