Denver star Nikola Jokic was having another brilliant game: 21 points, eight assists and five rebounds in the first half, with behind-the-back passes to set up scores and generally doing whatever he wanted.
Then came one misstep from a teammate with about three seconds left until halftime — and now, the Nuggets wait to see how bad the news might be.
Jokic limped off the court in Miami on Monday night, after appearing to hurt his left knee just before the intermission. He was not on the floor for the second half and an MRI — probably sometime Tuesday — will determine what happens from here.
