Nikola Jokic shared his impressions after the Denver Nuggets’ win against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Nikola Jokic said that his team secured the win primarily because they played good defense.
,,The defense was crucial in the first half, we gained an advantage and controlled the game. We lost a bit of focus in the second half, but in the end, we managed to win. We are playing well, and as for my stats against the New Orleans Pelicans, I don’t know what to say. The fans support us, they give us energy when we need it. They are always on our side.”
Jokic especially praised Michael Porter Jr, who scored 20 points and grabbed 10 rebounds.
,,Michael Porter Jr. is one of the best shooters in the NBA, and when he’s in the zone, it makes it easier for everyone else on the team to play.”
The Denver Nuggets currently hold the third position in the Western Conference standings with 27 wins and 13 losses.
The team from Colorado will play their next game tomorrow against the Indiana Pacers.
