Nikola Jokic News, Rumors, Updates - Denver Nuggets | FOX Sports

Stifled by Blazers in loss Jokic finished with nine points (3-4 FG, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds and nine assists over 27 minutes during Monday's 135-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact This was easily Jokic's worst offensive performance of the campaign, as he finished with a season-low point total. Incredibly, he attempted only four shots, but he still flirted with a triple-double with a 9/9/9 line. The big man was impacted by foul trouble in the contest and played a season-low 27 minutes, but this was really just an aberration for a dominant player who has more than proven his ability to score proficiently. Jokic averaged 27.1 points per game last season and will likely come closer to that total in his next game against the Lakers on Wednesday.

Hangs triple-double on Warriors Jokic provided 26 points (7-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 11-11 FT), 12 rebounds and 10 assists in 34 minutes during Friday's 128-123 victory over Golden State.

Impact Jokic needed only two games this season to notch his first triple-double, as he led Denver in points, rebounds and assists in the big win. Though the back-to-back MVP didn't collect any defensive stats and turned the ball over five times, his ability to impact the game in multiple ways was once again on display against the reigning champions. Jokic is averaging 26.5 points, 8.0 assists and 8.0 boards through his first two games of the campaign. He's shooting 63.3 percent from the field and has made all 13 of his free-throw tries.

Slated to play Friday Coach Karl Malone indicated before Friday's game against the Warriors that Jokic (finger) will take part, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.

Impact Jokic's wrist is reportedly still sore, but that won't prevent him from suiting up for a second consecutive contest to open 2022-23. While he wasn't quite as on top of the boards as usual against the Jazz in the opener Wednesday, Jokic didn't display any issues with his shooting touch despite the soreness, knocking down 12 of his 17 attempts from the field.

Probable Friday Jokic is probable for Friday's game against the Warriors due to a sprained right finger.

Impact Jokic played well in the opener -- 27 points, six assists, four boards and three steals -- but sprained his finger in the process. That said, it's not expected to keep him out Friday. The bigger concern for the Nuggets is Jamal Murray (knee) being questionable.

Stars in season opener Jokic produced 27 points (12-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, six assists and three steals over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 123-102 loss to the Jazz.

Impact The reigning MVP looked as dominant as he's been over the last few seasons and while he showed efficiency as a scorer while also displaying his well-known ability to contribute across the board in other categories as well, that was not enough to carry Denver to victory in the season opener. Despite the loss, these kinds of performances shouldn't surprise anyone given how good he's been over the past two seasons, and in fact, it wouldn't be shocking if this is a low standard for his outputs to come.

Will play Friday Jokic is in the starting lineup for Friday's preseason finale versus the Warriors.

Impact Jokic was previously considered to be questionable for Friday's game, but it appears that his wrist injury is no longer a problem, though it's possible Denver still elects to keep the star big man on a minutes restriction against Golden State. Jokic should be full go for the regular season and will likely be a top-three pick in nearly every fantasy league.
