Jokic provided 25 points (8-11 FG, 9-11 FT), 17 rebounds, 12 assists and two blocks in 35 minutes during Monday's 116-111 victory over Philadelphia.
Jokic dominated in Monday's victory, helping the Nuggets to a relatively easy victory. With Joel Embiid (calf) on the sideline for Philadelphia, Jokic didn't face much resistance in what was expected to be a matchup of the league's two top MVP candidates. Denver now sits 3.5 games clear at the top of the Western Conference standings, meaning that Jokic himself could be given a game or two of rest before the end of the regular season.
