Jokic finished with 16 points (6-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Sunday's 121-111 loss to the Thunder.
The Nuggets won't take any chances with Jokic as he works his way back from injury, so a lower total shouldn't come as a huge surprise while he operates under a minutes restriction. That being said, Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein defended the All-Star effectively and kept his impact to a minimum. The Nuggets have a back-to-back set looming on the schedule this week, and it wouldn't be surprising to see Jokic take a seat for one of those games.
