Nikola Jokic Denver Nuggets Vs Dallas Mavericks

Nikola Jokic, the three-time NBA MVP and key player for the Denver Nuggets, is listed as questionable for the upcoming game against the Dallas Mavericks on Friday, November 22. Jokic has been absent from the team due to personal reasons and did not participate in practice on Thursday.

The Nuggets, who hold an 8-5 record and are 1-1 in the NBA Cup, are facing uncertainty with Jokic’s availability. Despite his strong season averages of 29.7 points, 13.7 rebounds, and 11.7 assists per game, Jokic’s status for the game remains a game-time decision.

The Dallas Mavericks, who are also 1-1 in the NBA Cup, will be without their star player Luka Doncic, who suffered a right wrist sprain during their last game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Doncic is expected to miss at least one week due to the injury.

The game, scheduled for 10:00 PM ET on Friday, is crucial for both teams as they vie for position in the Western Conference standings and the NBA Cup group stage. The absence of both Jokic and Doncic could significantly impact the dynamics of the game.
