In Nuggets x Lakers, Jokic makes an unbelievable basket: “Crazy”

Nikola Jokic was the big name of the match between Nuggetsx lakers. The two teams started the dispute for the final of the western conference last Tuesday night, 16, at the Ball Arena, and what most called attention was the Serb’s performance. The ace was decisive for the 132 to 126 victory of the Denver franchise, he added 34 points, grabbed 21 rebounds and still gave 14 assists, in addition to being compared with LeBron James.

However, Jokic shocked the basketball world during the Nuggets v Lakers final with a field goal that appeared to be unbelievable. With seconds left in the third quarter, Jokic charged from the backfield and had to make a solo play. Anthony Davis was on his guard, and the playmaker had no passing options. With less than five seconds to go, the Serb swung and attempted a three-pointer. The ball passed through the pivot and landed perfectly.

The fact is that, even with the absurd bid, Jokic showed that he is cold and calculating. Amid so much praise, he continued with his feet on the ground and highlighted that luck is on the side of the Nuggets in the series against the Lakers. However, Nikola also did not let the opportunity pass and was keen to say that his attempt was something different from what many would expect.

Sometimes luck is on our side. It’s a crazy shot, of course“, he stated.

LeBron James or Jokic? Denver star reacts to comparisons!

This is really offensive (laughs). I am joking. I mean, being compared to one of the greatest of all time, or the greatest of all time, I think it’s really cool. We affect his game in different ways, but he’s a very good player.“, he completed.
