Nikola Jokics continues MVP quest with 27/8/11 in win over Pistons

Nikola Jokic continued to add to his MVP candidacy on Tuesday night, scoring a team-high 27 points (13-16 FG, 1-2 FT) while grabbing eight rebounds, handing out 11 assists, and recording a steal and a block in a 134-119 win over Detroit.

Fantasy Impact:

With news that James Harden will miss the next couple of weeks, Jokic seems firmly entrenched as the NBA's leading MVP candidate at this point. He leads the Nuggets in virtually all major offensive categories and continues to reward all those fantasy owners who nabbed him with a first round draft pick last December.
