THE Nikola Jokic with an improbable shot under time pressure and … Anthony Davis put the Nuggets up +5 (104-109) with 2:51 left Game 4 with the Lakers in the West Finals.
LeBron James also bowed to the greatness of the Serbian ace. “When you think you’ve closed him down and taken the defense out, he brings the ball behind his head and scores. He’s done it 4-5 times in this series so all you can do is take your hat off to him“, the “king” said with a smile, making the characteristic gesture at the press conference.
“I wasn’t surprised by his presence, I know how great ‘Joker’ is. There aren’t many players like him in the NBA, many see his numbers but overlook his mind. But not me“, added the 38-year-old superstar.
“Probably the best team that we’ve played since we’ve been together for our four years.”
