Mike Singer of the Denver Post Reports Nikola Jokic will sit out of Wednesday’s matchup between the Denver Nuggets and Utah Jazz.
Nikola Jokic is out for tonight’s game vs. Utah, I’m told.
The reigning MVP is dealing with a lingering toe injury, last playing in the Nuggets 130-115 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Feb. 1, scoring 21 points in 30 minutes of action, also recording 16 rebounds and eight assists. A dominant playmaker for the Nuggets, Jokic is averaging 33 minutes, 26 points, 14 rebounds and eight assists per game, playing in 45 games this year, leading the team with a 31% usage rate.
