NBA Fans React to Nikola Jokic News
Already a three-time NBA MVP, Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic may be putting together the best start to a season he has ever had. Currently leading the league in rebounds and assists per game, Jokic is averaging 29.7 points, 13.7 rebounds, and 11.7 assists.
Should he maintain these averages, Jokic would become the first player since his teammate Russell Westbrook to average a triple-double for an entire season. Improving his season numbers this past week, Jokic averaged 29.5 points, 15.8 rebounds, and 14.5 assists en route to the NBA’s Western Conference Player of the Week award.
Via NBA PR: "Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokić and Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland have been named the NBA Western and Eastern Conference Players of the Week, respectively, for Week 3 of the 2024-25 season (Nov. 4-10)."
