Nikola Jokic, the 1st Bill Russell Finals MVP award winner, gets an absurd ejection in the second quarter against the Chicago Bulls.
The Denver Nuggets played a game against the Bulls when the two-time MVP got ejected after playing only 16 minutes.
He was removed from the game with only 1:07 left on the clock in the first half.
It all happened after he missed a layup against his namesake from Montenegro Vucevic. He ran to the official expressing himself and he received two technical fouls which led to his ejection.
Let’s see the situation:
Fans, players and coach Malone were shocked. Nikola Jokic finished the game with 4 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists.
The Nuggets managed to win the game without their best player. Reggie Jackson stood out with 25 points while Michael Porter Jr. scored 17 points and 7 rebounds.
