NBA Euro-watch: Jokic triple-double not enough vs Warriors

By George Efkarpides / info@eurohoops.net

Even though Jokic and the Nuggets had their work cut out for them against the Dubs, the Serbian star almost willed his team to victory.

The “Joker” was on top of his game finishing with  22 points, 12 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals and a block but the  Warriors came out with the win 124-114.

Despite 15 points, 5 boards and 5 assists from Bogdan Bogdanovic the Spurs managed to come from behind and beat the Kings 107-100 in Sacramento.

Davis Bertans had a career-high 28 points including 6 threes in the win.

Giannis Antetokounmpo was clearly fatigued in a 109-96 loss to the Pacers. The “Greek Freak” had 17 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block.

Domantas Sabonis had a double-double, 17 points and 10 rebounds for the winning side.
