Jokic Scores 48 as Nuggets Dominate Hawks

Posted : 09 December 2024

Nikola Jokic continued his dominant form with a 48-point performance as the Denver Nuggets cruised to a 141-111 victory over the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday. After recording a career-high 56 points in a loss to Washington the previous night, Jokic contributed 14 rebounds, eight assists, and three steals in the win.

 

 His stellar all-around play led the Nuggets past a Hawks team that had been on a six-game winning streak. Michael Porter Jr. added 26 points, and Christian Braun contributed 17 points, further cementing Denver’s victory.

 

Jokic’s exceptional performance earned special praise from Nuggets coach Michael Malone, who highlighted his consistent excellence. "I feel privileged to have the chance to coach him. I never take it for granted," Malone remarked, acknowledging the remarkable talent of the reigning NBA MVP. Jokic’s leadership and consistency have become a staple for the Nuggets, as he continues to deliver impressive performances night after night.

 

In other NBA action, the Golden State Warriors mounted a comeback from a 12-point deficit to defeat the Minnesota Timberwolves 114-106. Stephen Curry was instrumental in the win, scoring 30 points and adding eight assists. Curry also hit a remarkable three-point buzzer-beater at the end of the third quarter, giving the Warriors a 93-90 lead that they would not relinquish.

 

The San Antonio Spurs secured a 121-116 win over the New Orleans Pelicans, with Chris Paul making history by recording his 12,092nd career assist, surpassing Jason Kidd in the all-time rankings. Paul now sits behind only John Stockton.

 

 Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Lakers triumphed over the Portland Trail Blazers 107-98, led by Anthony Davis' 30 points, and the Philadelphia 76ers defeated the Chicago Bulls 108-100, with Joel Embiid returning from injury to score 31 points and grab 12 rebounds.
