Nikola Jokiu0107 couldn’t quite get to a triple-double Monday night in Indianapolis, but he still found a way to make history.
Denver's star dished out a career-high 19 assists while leading the Nuggets to a 125-116 win over the Indiana Pacers at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. That surpassed his previous best of 18.
Jokiu0107 is the first center to record 19 assists in a game since Wilt Chamberlain did so in 1968. Jokiu0107 trails only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on the all-time assists race among centers in league history. They are the only two centers who have surpassed the 5,000-assist mark.
