Denver Nuggets fans can finally take a break after what felt like a whirlwind of a game that finally saw the good guys come out on top. After nearly blowing a once 18-point lead, the Nuggets found a way to outlast the Los Angeles Clippers 134-124 in overtime to capture their 43rd victory of the season.
Nikola Jokic was the star of the show as he finished with another impressive stat line of 40 points, 17 rebounds, and 10 assists on an incredibly efficient 14-of-21 shooting from the field. Jokic also chipped in three steals, none bigger than his final one in overtime, which just so happened to help give him the opportunity to record his 23rd triple-double of the season.
