Nikola Jokic is one of if not the best players in the NBA today and the Suns will have their hands full with a lot of the different offensive coverages that the Nuggets throw their way.
A big staple of the Nuggets’ offense is the pick-and-roll that they run with Jokic on the top of the key with players such as Aaron Gordon, Michael Porter Jr., and Jamal Murray.
One of the things the Suns do as well is the pick-and-roll action with Chris Paul and Devin Booker. They tend to keep Kevin Durant away from the play to hide him in the corner and force the defense to either drop in coverage which allows for a mid-range shot, stay with Durant on the corner which allows for a height mismatch with Deandre Ayton or Bismack Biyombo or allow help defense which gives Kevin Durant a wide-open three-point opportunity.
