The Denver Nuggets will face the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday at Crypto.com Arena.
The Nuggets have won five in a row and are coming off a 20-point victory over the Wizards. Nikola Jokic scored 21 points, 15 assists, and 19 rebounds. For most players, this stat line would be a career day, but for Jokic, it has become the norm. It would not be surprising to see him win his second MVP award in three years this season as he has established himself as maybe the best player in the NBA.
LeBron James is nine points away from reaching 40,000 career points. It is simply amazing what he has been able to accomplish during his time in the NBA, and this is just another achievement on his path to becoming the greatest player to ever touch a basketball. The Lakers have had a couple of statement wins in a row, and their 21-point fourth-quarter comeback was the biggest of James’ career.
