He is at risk of punishment Nikola Jokic, after what happened in the early hours between the Serbian star and the owner of the Suns, in the fourth game of the series between the Nuggets and the Suns.
A few minutes before the end of the first half and after an attempt by the home team to maintain possession, the ball ended up in the stands. Jokic went to get her in order to start the attack quickly, but he did not make it, as it was held by the owner of the Sans, Matt Isby, with the Serb pushing him to distract her.
In the end, the tension was eased, while the incident has been hotly discussed in the last few hours on the other side of the Atlantic. The Nuggets center and two-time MVP is likely to be punished for said push. The regulation states that a player can go towards the stand only if trying to “save” a possession, something completely different from what Jokic did.
Now, the authorities will scrutinize the phase and will immediately decide whether to impose any penalty on the Nuggets superstar.
