Entering Saturday, Denver Nuggets big man Nikola Jokic is leading the Nuggets in points, assists, rebounds and steals per game, the only player in the NBA to accomplish that feat.

Nikola Jokic is averaging 18.1 points, 10.2 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 1.5 steals per game entering Saturday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers.

The Nuggets currently have the best record in the rugged Western Conference at 21-9. Nikola Jokic, as the stats show, is doing it all for Denver right now and he has to be one of the favorites for the league MVP award.

How good of a passer is Nikola Jokic? He's 10th in the NBA in assists per game and averages more assists than LeBron James, Mike Conley, Kyrie Irving, Kemba Walker and Ricky Rubio — players who all play the point guard position for their respective teams.

Jokic is a unique player in the sense that you can run your offense through him, and that's exactly what the Nuggets are doing. It's rare to see a team use their center the way Denver uses Jokic, especially when you take into account that the league is more perimeter based now. It just goes to show you how versatile and talented Nikola Jokic is.

The Nuggets signed Jokic to a five-year, $147.7 million maximum contract in July, and he's worth every penny.
