The Denver Nuggets’ star, Nikola Jokic, suffered an ankle sprain against the lowly Chicago Bulls. The injury left Denver fans breathless for many moments.
He eventually exited the game and left many Nuggets fans wondering how long the star center may be out. Denver was originally optimistically cautious about the extent of his injury.
Today, the team found out some bad news. Jokic will be sidelined five to eight games.
If there is one positive to take away from this, he will miss the easier part of the Nuggets’ schedule. If he were to miss time while in the middle of December to earlier January, then Denver would be in a lot more trouble than they are currently in.
