Denver Nuggets fans enjoyed a solid win over the Portland Trail Blazers as Nikola Jokic led them to victory. However, the Joker had something else up his sleeve that put an incredible nail in the coffin of their game.
With the game winding down and the score secured, all the Nuggets had to do is exhaust the clock and finish the game. However, Jokic ended up with the ball for some reason at the top of the three-point line as the clock is winding down.
Anyone wouldn't want to have a turnover on him just because the clock expired, so Jokic did the most sensible thing and chocked the ball up. Funnily enough, the ball went in.

The impressive thing with Jokic's shot was that he pulled off the one-legged three-pointer that Harden has been working on through the offseason. For Jokic to pull it off during an actual game is nothing short of impressive.
He finished with a solid stat line of 20 points, 11 rebounds, and six assists on 50% shooting.
