The Denver Nuggets’ playoff dreams are not dead, they are just one game back of the Pelicans and 1.5 back of the Timberwolves for the final playoff spot in the West. They need a little help, but they also need to take care of their own business.
Enter Nikola Jokic, who had 35 points and grabbed 13 boards in the Nuggets win Sunday over the Bucks.
The Nuggets have key games against the Timberwolves and Clippers coming up this week, they are going to need more games like this from Jokic to have a real shot.
