The Clippers Have No Answers While Nikola Jokic Scores At Will In A Statement Win

Nikola Jokic has embarked on an incredible streak this season. The Denver Nuggets triumphed over the LA Clippers 130-116 on Wednesday, with Jokic matching the NBA's highest-scoring outing of the year by netting 55 points. Historically, the Nuggets were 0-4 in previous instances where he scored 50 or more. "It’s a good feeling," noted the three-time NBA MVP. He equaled Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s earlier feat of 55 points in a double-overtime encounter against Indiana on October 23. “I believe I saw everything, but it's challenging as we're running numerous plays for me," he added. "Initially, I struggled, missing a few layups, but then I found my rhythm.” Jokic has been phenomenal during Denver’s current winning streak, becoming the first player in NBA history to maintain over 60% shooting while averaging a 35-point triple-double across six games. His stats showcase a remarkable 73.9% field goal percentage and 55.6% from beyond the arc, averaging 35.8 points, 12.0 rebounds, and 11.0 assists.
