4 years agoDenver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic scored 35 points on 13-for-26 shooting in Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. In addition, he grabbed 12 rebounds and dished it six assists. He was 3-for-6 from deep. He'll play the Cavaliers on Wednesday, who allow opponents to grab the 18th-most rebounds in the NBA while scoring just the 22nd-most points per game. It's not a great matchup for a Nuggets team that has struggled to win games, but Denver is still third in the league in scoring, so maybe Jokic will be able to shake off Cleveland's dual-center approach and still put up big numbers.--Justin Carter - RotoBaller
