Jokic finished with 20 points (7-17 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 18 rebounds, 11 assists, and one steal in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 120-118 victory over the Kings.
Impact
Jokic put forth another triple-double in Wednesday's victory, his sixth such effort in his last 10 games. Jokic has been spectacular for the Nuggets and was hearing the MVP chants from the crowd down the stretch. The victory moves the Nuggets to within two wins of the top-seeded Golden State Warriors. If indeed the Nuggets can maintain their current pace and challenge for the number one seed, Jokic should be in line for plenty of action across the back-end of the regular season.

Jokic finished with 23 points (7-16 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 12 rebounds, and four assists in 36 minutes during Monday's 103-87 victory over the Heat.
Impact
Jokic finished with a double-double Monday in what turned out to be a comfortable victory. This was certainly not his best performance which speaks volumes in regards to how good he has been this season. Jokic is cruising as a top-10 player thus far and should only continue to get better as the Nuggets strive for the top seed in the West.

Jokic scored a team-high 27 points (11-22 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT) while adding 10 rebounds, 10 assists and three steals in 35 minutes during Friday's 117-110 loss to the 76ers.
Impact
The triple-double was his 11th of the season, establishing a new career high for the 23-year-old, but he's likely far from done -- nine of them have come in 20 games since the beginning of January, and Jokic is averaging 24.5 points, 11.6 boards, 8.3 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.2 three-pointers over that red-hot stretch.

Jokic recorded 25 points (8-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 8-10 FT), 14 rebounds, 10 assists, a steal and a block in 34 minutes Wednesday against Brooklyn.
Impact
Jokic notched his second triple-double of February, finishing the night with a 61.5 percent shooting percentage despite a 135-130 loss on the road. The 23-year-old continues to emerge as one of the best centers in the league, averaging 21.0 points, 11.8 rebounds, 8.6 assists and 1.6 steals over his previous five contests.

Jokic recorded 16 points (7-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists and three steals in 26 minutes Monday against Detroit.
Impact
Jokic hasn't been himself from a scoring standpoint over his previous two contests, and he finished with just three rebounds in Monday's 129-103 loss on the road. This is likely just a blip on the radar, however, as the 7-0 center is putting up 22.0 points, 14.5 rebounds and 9.5 assists through the first three games of February. He'll have a good chance to get back on track Wednesday against Brooklyn.

Jokic finished with 13 points (4-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-8 FT), 16 rebounds, and 10 assists in 29 minutes during Saturday's 107-106 victory over the Timberwolves.
Impact
Jokic put up another triple-double Saturday, although it came on inefficient shooting from both the field and the free-throw line. He also failed to record a defensive stat, making it one his less impressive triple-doubles. Despite the poor shooting, owners still have to be thrilled with his production of late and he is tracking towards ending the season as a top-5 fantasy player.

Jokic tallied 31 points (12-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 13 rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 31 minutes in the Nuggets' 136-122 win over the Rockets on Friday.
Impact
Jokic once again saw a massive level of usage in the continued absence of Jamal Murray (ankle), although for a change, he didn't pace the team in scoring. That honor belonged to Malik Beasley, who racked up a career-high 35 points. Meanwhile, Jokic now has a pair of 30-point efforts in his last four games and has shot between 50.0 percent and Friday's 80.0 percent in that quartet of contests. The 23-year-old big man fell just an assist shy of a second straight triple-double as well Friday, but he naturally remains an elite option at center across all formats, especially while Murray remains sidelined.

Jokic finished with 20 points (9-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, 10 assists, three steals, and two blocks in 37 minutes during Wednesday's 105-99 victory over the Pelicans.
Impact
Jokic had his third triple-double in his last five games Wednesday, continuing to put up big numbers with regularity. He has also managed a combined 11 steals over that same five-game stretch but has struggled from the three-point line, hitting just 7-of-26 from the perimeter. Outside of that, he has been spectacular and there is no reason to think he is going to slow down anytime soon.

Jokic accumulated 24 points (10-20 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, four steals, and three assists in 35 minutes during Monday's 95-92 win over the Grizzlies.
Impact
Jokic matched his season high in steals, swiping four for the third time this season. While he finished with fewer boards and dimes than usual in a grind-it-out game against a team that likes to limit possessions, Jokic is maintaining career highs in points, assists, and steals per game while averaging a double-double.

Jokic finished with 32 points (12-22 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 18 rebounds, 10 assists, and one steal in 34 minutes during Saturday's 126-110 victory over the 76ers.
Impact
Jokic, who was suspended for Friday's game, dominated an undermanned 76ers team, ending with his seventh triple-double of the season. The 76ers simply had no answer for Jokic who continues to put up ridiculous numbers on a nightly basis. The Nuggets currently occupy the second seed in the Western Conference behind only the Golden State Warriors. While he may not be the favorite, Jokic certainly has to be in the discussion for the leagues most valuable player award.
