Nikola Jokic scored 13 points, 13 rebounds and 13 assists to lead the Denver Nuggets over the Memphis Grizzlies 105-91 on Tuesday night in a matchup between the top two teams in the Western Conference.
“You’re playing for first place in the Western Conference – meaningless in the middle of December – but that’s what we’re playing for tonight,” Denver coach Michael Malone said, via ESPN. “That team is a top five in offensive and defense, so we’re going to have to bring our A game tonight. And I felt that Bruce, Christian, (Kentavious Caldwell-Pope), Aaron and Nikola did that.”
