Nikola Jokic

C, Denver Nuggets

Nikola Jokic was able to put up a double-double in a losing effort against the Clippers on Wednesday, recording 17 points on 7-of-11 shooting, dishing out 13 dimes, grabbing seven boards and connecting on 1-of-4 3-pointers.

Jokic played well despite the end result which is what his owners in fantasy care about anyway. Tonight's game was in line with his top-10 value on the season as arguably the best passing center in the league. The Nuggets were missing a bunch of key players tonight, so the blame can't be fully laid on his shoulders alone, especially considering how much effort he put in.
