Nikola Jokic Injury Report

There were reports that Nikola Jokic had picked up a minor injury ahead of the game against the Timberwolves. Nevertheless, the Serbian still featured and was visibly not at his best. Yet even on an off day, Jokic was still lethal as he registered 20 points, 3 rebounds, and 11 assists. While the last time he was on the injury list, this time he is not a part of it, which means that he is fully fit and will play tonight's game against the Washington Wizards.

Nikola Jokic has been exceptional throughout the season and often lends an inspirational hand in the Denver Nuggets' victory. The 29-year-old is currently averaging a colossal 30.6 points every game, with 13.2 rebounds, and 9.8 assists. From scoring to play-making the Serbian is at the top of his game, and statistics like these only state how big of a cheat code he is for his team.
