Nikola Jokic Opens 2023 With A 30-Point Triple-Double
2 years agoDenver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic had no trouble performing well after New Year's Eve, posting 30 points with 12 rebounds and 12 assists in a 123-111 win over Boston. It was a fitting start to 2023 after Jokic had closed out 2022 by averaging a 30-point triple-double for December. It was an incredibly efficient performance as well from the Joker, with him hitting both of his attempts from deep and shooting 10-for-13 overall with an 8-for-8 record at the foul line. In 32 minutes on the floor, Jokic also grabbed one steal in the contest. The Serbian superstar is among the MVP candidates again, and he's getting closer and closer to averaging a triple-double for the season, sitting on 25.7 points, 10.9 rebounds and 9.5 assists.
