Nikola Jokić

Nuggets Injury

Nikola Jokić exited Monday’s game against the Miami Heat after suffering a hyperextended left knee in the second quarter. Although the full extent of the injury remains unclear pending further medical evaluation, Jokić’s absence would significantly alter the Nuggets’ lineup and pose challenges for fantasy managers relying on his production. Jonas Valančiūnas stepped in for the start of the third quarter, potentially filling the gap if Jokić’s absence is prolonged.
