Nikola Jokic - Unlikely to play Friday Jokic (wrist) is unlikely to play Friday against the Clippers, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Jokic was initially listed as questionable for Friday's matchup due to right wrist injury management, but it appears the MVP candidate is trending toward sitting out. If that's the case, the MVP candidate's next chance to play will come Sunday against the Magic. In Jokic's expected absence, Zeke Nnaji would presumably draw the start, while DeAndre Jordan could work his way back into the rotation as the primary backup center.

However, the shooting guard failed to connect on his only shot attempt in the second half while adding three rebounds, one assist and a steal.

He attempted only four more shots over the final two quarters as the Nuggets held a comfortable lead, finishing tied with Nikola Jokic with a game-high 21 points on the night.
