Nikola JokicC, Denver NuggetsNikola Jokic handed out a team-high six assists to go with 19 points, seven rebounds, one steal and one block in 34 minutes during Saturday's loss to the Heat.
Jokic was the best player for the Nuggets, teasing a triple-double in their first official game of the season resumption. He was without a number of his running mates after three of the starters were ruled out prior to tipoff. Jokic comes into the bubble in arguably the best shape of his career and as a player who typically plays as much as he can, he should be locked in as a high first-round player moving forward.
