Nikola Jokić DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic finished with 20 points, nine rebounds, and seven assists in Sunday's postseason loss to OKC. The Thunder defense made defending Jokic a priority in Game 7. As a result, OKC managed to earn a decisive 32-point victory to earn a trip to the Western Conference Finals. Without question, it was a chaotic year in Denver, with the team firing head coach Michael Malone in April and replacing him with David Adelman. Still, Jokic had the best campaign of his career, averaging 29.6 points, 12.7 rebounds, and 10.7 assists in 70 appearances. The Nuggets have some work to do to bolster the roster. However, no matter how the depth chart looks, Jokic should remain the top fantasy option heading into the 2025-26 season.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic was back to his best in Tuesday's 112-105 defeat to the Oklahoma City Thunder, leading all scorers with 44 points while tallying 15 rebounds, five assists, and two steals. After shooting 33.3 percent from the field over the last three games, Jokic went 17-for-25 from the field (68 percent) and was on fire from downtown with a 5-for-7 effort. However, the Nuggets failed to capitalize on their leader's incredible performance, blowing a lead in the fourth quarter to fall 3-2 behind in the series. With the Nuggets now in survival mode, Jokic will be expected to put together another monster line in Game 6 on Thursday night.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic had a rare off night in Game 2 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday, tallying 17 points, eight rebounds, six assists, one steal, and one block before fouling out in the third quarter of an embarrassing 149-106 loss. The Nuggets struggled right from the off, which was probably one of the reasons for Jokic's lackluster effort, and the team was trailing by over 40 points when he picked up his sixth foul late in the third frame. Jokic finished with 6-for-16 shooting from the field. The three-time MVP will surely come out with a different spirit in Game 3 on Friday as the Nuggets try to reclaim the series lead on their home court.
