Nuggets star Nikola Jokic has entered the NBA’s health-and-safety protocol, according to the team’s injury report filed Tuesday night.
Jokic joins Nuggets backup point guard Bones Hyland, who’s also in the protocol. Both are out for Wednesday’s home game against the Knicks, at minimum. Following Wednesday’s contest, Denver heads to Dallas for a two-game set against the Mavericks. Hyland entered the protocol last Friday night only an hour before the Nuggets took on the Celtics.
Aaron Gordon was also listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday’s contest with a non-COVID illness.
