The NBA regular season focused on the Nuggets' home win over the Clippers 130-128 in overtime. In this game, the two sides still played hard in overtime, and finally Gordon shot a quasi-killer three-pointer in the bottom corner, becoming the first contributor to the Nuggets' win. On 10-of-16 shooting (4-of-7 from three-point range), Gordon finished with 28 points, four rebounds, three assists and two steals, a team-high plus-minus of +21.
However, in addition to Gordon, the Nuggets' Jokic performance is even more explosive, he shot 16 of 25 shots (3 of 5 three-pointers), slashed 49 points, 14 rebounds, 10 assists, 3 steals, 1 block, personal data performance is very eye-catching! And, of the 14 rebounds Jokic grabbed, seven of them were frontcourt rebounds. After a super triple-double of 49+, Jokic has come to 10 triple-doubles this season.
As last season's regular season MVP, Jokic continued to perform well this season, averaging 26 points, 14 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 1.5 steals per game, and his performance was very comprehensive, especially the 14 rebounds per game set a career high, nearly 4 rebounds more than last season. In the recent MVP ranking list, Jokic is also in the top three. Judging by Jokic's current performance, it is also possible that he will be the MVP this season.
Jokic does not have the physical qualities of the strong, but he has a wealth of offensive means and strategizing skills, entering the league for six seasons, he has long been the best big white man in the NBA. As the 41st pick of the 2014 NBA, Jokic's performance is really amazing. MVP, Best Team, All-Star, Best Player and other honors, and in 2018, he signed a big contract of 5 years and 147 million US dollars.
In today's small-ball era, it is the emergence of Jokic and Embiid that has "revived" the center position. Jokic's NBA career is truly inspiring, but in addition to his personal brilliance, it has a lot to do with his stable love life. Jokic's wife, a Serbian named Natalia, has been in love with Jokic since high school, and the two have a very good relationship.
After Jokic entered the NBA, Natalia also transferred to Denver Metropolitan State University, just to be able to better accompany the white giant. In October 2020, Jokic and Natalia ended a 9-year long-distance love run, and the two entered a happy married life. A few months ago, Jokic also had the happiest moment of his life, and his wife Natalia gave birth to a lovely daughter for him.
Today, the 26-year-old Jokic not only has a stable family life, but also holds a huge contract, which is already the biggest winner in his life. But now that he is still young, he is expected to sign a bigger contract in the future. I believe that under the condition of stable emotional life, Jokic will be more focused on the NBA game, if he can get the regular season MVP again, or even impact the NBA championship, then the superstar is absolutely deserved.
