Nikola Jokić had a night to forget as the Denver Nuggets’ nine-game winning streak came to an end after a disappointing 123-100 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. He was caught off guard by the plan JJ Redick and the Lakers executed but believes Denver might have a bigger issue to solve.

Jamal Murray’s future contract with the Denver Nuggets has been predicted to be one of the NBA's worst-value deals in two years.

The Denver Nuggets bounced back from their loss to the Los Angeles Lakers and defeated the Indiana Pacers, 125-116, on Monday. Denver now sits at 38-20 on the season and reclaimed second place in the Western Conference standings.

The just-turned 30-year-old technically sits fourth in the NBA in 3-point accuracy (44.9 percent), three slots behind Memphis Grizzlies marksman Luke Kennard (47.6 percent). But remember, Jokić’s full-court shots occur often — and they arrive with a certificate of authenticity.
