ImpactJokic came up short in the first leg of this back-to-back set against Victor Wembanyama despite putting up 41 points (15-36 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 8-9 FT), 18 rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 37 minutes during Friday's 113-110 loss, and he got his revenge right away after delivering an even better performance. Even though he finished just one rebound shy of another triple-double, Jokic was outstanding on offense and finished with his third-best scoring mark of the campaign. He has six games with at least 40 points in only 31 regular-season contests.

Jamal Murray - Struggles from floor againMurray closed Saturday's 122-111 overtime win over the Spurs with 13 points (6-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt), six rebounds, six assists, one block and five steals across 38 minutes.

ImpactMurray went 12-for-34 from the floor combined in this back-to-back set against the Spurs, scoring 13 points in each contest. That's clearly a step in the wrong direction, as Murray had reached the 20-point mark in eight of his previous nine outings before this back-to-back set. Even after two subpar shooting performances, Murray has looked on the rise in recent weeks compared to the poor start he endured in the opening weeks of the campaign.
