Highlights: Nikola Jokic’s near triple-double lifts Nuggets past Lakers

The Denver Nuggets took care of business Wednesday night courtesy of a 110-99 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. Nikola Jokic was a massive reason why as he was hitting circus shot after circus shot and fell just shy of his 79th triple-double, which would’ve passed Wilt Chamberlian for sixth all-time.

Jokic stuffed the stat sheet once again finishing with 31 points on 12-of-17 shooting from the field to go along with 13 rebounds and nine assists.
