Nikola Jokic drops 21 points in Game 1 versus Lakers

Nikola Jokic recorded 21 points (8-14 FG, 5-7 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block, and four turnovers in Friday's loss to the Lakers.

Fantasy Impact:

Jokic actually ended up seeing merely 25 minutes of action tonight, as he picked up three fouls in the first quarter and sat out the entire fourth quarter due to the large deficit. He was still able to register a solid performance, and continues his consistency regardless of the opponent. The Nuggets will need him to stay on the court much longer if they hope to even the series on Sunday evening.
