While other players around the league campaign themselves — cough, cough James Harden — to be the leagues MVP, Nikola Jokic continues to just go out there and dominate the competition. The real MVP front runner was at it again on Friday night putting together a 37 point, nine assist, and six rebound performance together to lead the Nuggets to a 113-108 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans.
Jokic did all that on an extremely efficient 17-of-30 shooting from the field, 3-of-5 from beyond the arc. Not only did he score the ball, but Jokic also impacted the game defensively with two steals and one block.
