LeBron (ankle) is ruled OUT for Lakers game tonight in Milwaukee to start road trip.
If he’s a go in Wednesday’s stop on back-to-back to face @memgrizz, it could feature a matchup between

Good morning.
Nikola Jokic is the only player in NBA history with career points (13,856), rebounds (7,119), and assists (4,578) accumulated before the age of 30.

Also, wanna share this from Peyton Watson, who’s a pro’s pro already and willing to answer my questions in the locker room:
Asked him where thinks he’s improved most this year:

NEW for @MileHighSports
The Nuggets are finding ways to have fun while winning. Tonight was about the young guys. And Nikola Jokic empowering them.
“Nikola just empowers those guys. He’s communicating. He’s talking to them.”
On Jokic, the leader. ⬇️

PHX’s loss to a Wemby-less Spurs is bad under any circumstances, but especially disastrous considering their final 10 games… @ DEN, @ OKC, @ NOP, vs. CLE, vs. MIN, vs. NOP, vs. LAC, @ LAC (B2B), @ SAC, @ MIN. The Lakers have to handle their biz, but it’s a potential opening. AK – 12:37 AM

Domantas Sabonis recorded his 25th triple-double of the season, the most in the NBA.
He is 1 of 5 players with at least 25 triple-doubles in a season in NBA history, joining:
– Oscar Robertson
– Wilt Chamberlain
– Russell Westbrook
– Nikola Jokic – 12:19 AM
@statmuse
Centers to record 25+ triple-doubles in a season:
— Wilt
— Jokic
— Sabonis
Wilt won MVP. Jokic was 2nd in MVP voting. Sabonis missed the All-Star game. pic.twitter.com/rMnVjxR0Zy – 12:17 AM
@KellyIko
Hard to think this is the same Rockets team that got embarrassed by a banged up Grizzlies team right before the ASB.
The Play-In was seemingly out of their grasp a few weeks ago. Houston is now just 0.5 game behind Golden State now after winning their 9th straight.
OKC up next – 12:06 AM

Final Rotations for the Nuggets as they defeat the Grizzlies 128-101.
Nikola Jokic: 29-11-8-3-1. Dominated out there and had fun doing so.
Christian Braun: 17 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 8/10 FG, 1/2 3P
Reggie Jackson: 15 points, 8 assists
Nuggets improve to 51-21. pic.twitter.com/fh8kAzauer – 11:25 PM
@HarrisonWind
Nuggets are an NBA-best 15-2 since the All-Star break. One of those losses was in OT. The other was on Kyrie Irving’s left-handed game-winner. – 11:22 PM
@NBABlackburn
A couple of guys with some sneaky good nights:
Reggie Jackson, 15 points and 8 assists, +21
Peyton Watson: 10-10-2-1-3, +22 in 22 minutes
Justin Holiday: 11-3-2-1, 4/6 FG, 3/4 3P – 11:19 PM
@statmuse
Jokic tonight:
29 PTS
11 REB
8 AST
3 STL
11-18 FG
He only played 3 quarters. statmuse.com/nba/player/nik… – 11:11 PM
@NBABlackburn
That was an incredible block from Peyton Watson.
He also has 9 rebounds tonight. Good hustle game from him. – 11:06 PM
@NBABlackburn
The Grizzlies just received an excessive timeout foul with 10:11 to go in the 4th quarter. – 10:58 PM
@DuaneRankin
Bradley Beal said the plan is for him to play Wednesday at Denver with right ring finger sprain. #Suns – 10:55 PM
@HarrisonWind
Nikola Jokic’s new offensive move that he’s been going to vs. smaller defenders: He throws up a shot (I think he’s missing kind of on purpose) so it hits backboard and rim, and he immediately follows it, gets the rebound and scores — this time he pulls it on the reigning DPOY. pic.twitter.com/cMbKhipVce – 10:51 PM
@GMoneyNuggs
Great, great hustle by the Nuggets bench players to save the ball not once but twice and then get the dunk from Watson. Hopefully LaRavia’s face recovers but Denver playing that hard while up 25 is fun to see. – 10:48 PM
@NBABlackburn
Lol the Nuggets are doing exactly what happened to the Celtics an hour ago. – 10:38 PM

CB’s in his rhythm 💪

This Christian Braun offensive surge is coming at the right time. Braun with a confident 3-point stroke would be huge in the playoffs. – 10:34 PM
@NBABlackburn
Fantastic no-look pass from Nikola Jokic in transition to an open Christian Braun. It’s so simple for him lol – 10:26 PM
@NBABlackburn
Halftime Rotations for the Nuggets as they lead the Grizzlies 69-44.
Nikola Jokic: 21 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, 7/9 FG, 1/1 3P, 6/7 FT

Nikola Jokic’s 1st half: 21 points (7-9 FGs), 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, +17. – 10:10 PM
@TommyBeer
Most triple doubles over the past two months:
1. Domantas Sabonis: 11
2. Luka Doncic: 9
3. Nikola Jokic: 8
4. Josh Hart: 6 – 10:07 PM
@GMoneyNuggs
These shots where you can tell it’s good right out of MPJ’s hand are just beautiful. – 10:01 PM

The Denver Nuggets are scoring the ball preeeetty well tonight.
They’re currently hunting Michael Porter threes. – 10:00 PM

So glad to see Julian Strawther back on the court. Fast hands, quick feet, the ability to get volcanic in a hurry… The injury that pulled him out of the rotation was rough, but I’m glad he’s making the most of his rookie year and learning on the court again. – 9:47 PM
@NBABlackburn
We’re getting Julian Strawther minutes. He looks rusty so far for sure. Just not fully in control physically yet. – 9:44 PM
@HarrisonWind
Nikola Jokic’s 1st quarter: 17 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, +16. – 9:40 PM
@NBABlackburn
That was perhaps the most casually dominant quarter of Joker’s season to date. – 9:39 PM
@HarrisonWind
Nikola Jokic’s white whale is to get this called a shooting foul.
He’s been trying for nine years. He’s never gotten it once. pic.twitter.com/crEGn5Ccrw – 9:35 PM

That was the funniest Jokic fake heave of all time. Love how indignant he is about not getting the shooting foul. – 9:28 PM

@VBenedetto
It’s a 13-4 start for the Nuggets. Jokic with 6 of those points and an assist in the first four minutes. – 9:18 PM
@HarrisonWind
Nikola Jokic just lost the opening tip jump ball for the first time since the All-Star break. Nuggets had gained possession on his last 15 opening tips before tonight. Now 15-1 since the break. – 9:17 PM
@NBABlackburn
Michael Porter Jr. fast breaks cause an early Memphis timeout.
First, MPJ pops for a three over Santi Aldama.
Next, MPJ drives the lane and drops off a nice pass to Nikola Jokic for a layup. – 9:17 PM

Alright Nuggets fans, it’s time for Game 72 of the season vs the injured Grizzlies. They’ve still got Desmond Bane, Jaren Jackson, and South Carolina product GG Jackson tho…

Nuggets could be without four starters tonight. That means another showcase game for Christian Braun who’s coming off a 17-point, 8 rebound, 6-assist, 3-steal game.

Nuggets injury updates: Michael Porter Jr. (illness) and Aaron Gordon (right plantar fascia strain) are both questionable tonight vs. Grizzlies.
Four of Denver’s five starters (Jokic, Murray, Porter, Gordon) are questionable. – 2:45 PM
@VBenedetto
Aaron Gordon and Michael Porter Jr. have been added to the Nuggets injury report ahead of tonight’s game against Memphis. Gordon’s questionable with a right plantar fascia sprain. MPJ’s questionable with an illness. – 2:44 PM
@HarrisonWind
What I’m watching for tonight vs. Grizzlies:
– Who plays?
Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray are questionable, and the Grizzlies are tanking with a lengthy injury report. Denver shouldn’t need either to beat Memphis. I’d guess Jokic is more likely to play than Murray.
