Another triple-double by Jokic leads the Nuggets to the top

By Eurohoops Team/ info@eurohoops.net

It seems nothing can stop the Serbian big man Nikola Jokic. Not the Portland Trail Blazers, and not Demian Lillard’s 44 points. Jokic led the Nuggets with 36 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists while only missing one field attempt in a big 122-113 win.

Denver remains in the battle for the top spot in the West.

For Portland Jusuf Nurkic had six points and 10 rebounds.

Jeremy Sochan from Poland had a big role in the Spurs winning against the Brooklyn Nets 106-98. He had 16 points, four rebounds, and two assists, and Jakob Poeltl added 12 points and eight rebounds.

Ivica Zubac from Croatia tried to stop Joel Embiid. The big man tabbed 12 points and nine rebounds, but that was not enough for the 76ers 120-110.
