Those who don’t see the point in watching the Nuggets when Nikola Jokic isn’t playing just missed a wildly fun half of hoops. – 9:18 PM

My position on MVP is that Nikola Jokic wins if he keeps Nikola Jokic’ing and reaches 65 games.
If either of those things don’t happen though, Jayson Tatum is checking all of the boxes. Another sensational all-around game for him. – 9:16 PM
