Break on the break from the Nuggets, with Jokic’s triple-double history

by

Starring Nikola Jokic and “co-star” Jamal Murray, the Nuggets prevailed 109-94 of the Heat in Miami and are two wins away from winning their first NBA title.

The Serbian center became the first player in league history with 30 points, 20 rebounds and 10 assists in one game, as he had 32 points, 21 rebounds and 10 assists and did not go out for a minute in the second half. Equally important was the contribution of the Canadian playmaker / shooting guard who had 34 points, 10 assists and the same number of rebounds.

Jokic and Murray became the first teammates to have a triple-double with 30 points in the same game in NBA history, in the regular or postseason of the championship.

Jimmy Butler paced Miami with 28 points, Bam Adebayo was outstanding for a third straight game with 22 points and 17 rebounds, and Caleb Martin added 10 points off the bench.

Now the Nuggets need two wins to lift the cup, with Game 4 again in Miami early Saturday morning (3:30).

It is worth noting that the winner of Game 3 after 1-1 wins the series in 80% (32 out of 40 cases), which remains to be seen if it will be proven in the next games of the series.

The twelve minutes: 24-24, 48-53, 68-82, 94-109
