Nikola Jokic Advances On NBA All-Time Playoff Assists List
The Denver Nuggets, led by three-time MVP Nikola Jokic, were eliminated in Game 7 of the Western Conference semifinals by the Oklahoma City Thunder, ending an impressive playoff run. Jokic averaged 28.4 points, 13.9 rebounds, and 5.9 assists per game in the series and led the playoffs in assists with 112, surpassing notable players like Kevin Durant on the NBA all-time playoff assist list. Despite Jokic's stellar performance, the Nuggets' lack of depth and scoring support was cited as a critical factor in their loss, drawing criticism from fans and sparking debate over his on-court behavior, including accusations of flopping during the Game 7 matchup. Jokic's recent five-year run is considered one of the best in NBA history, with consistent high-level production and accolades including three MVPs and a Finals MVP. Following the playoff exit, speculation has arisen about Jokic potentially requesting a trade, with the Indiana Pacers identified as a possible destination to form a strong frontcourt alongside Pascal Siakam and Tyrese Haliburton. The Pacers see adding Jokic as a way to address their rebounding issues and bolster their offense, positioning themselves as serious contenders in the Eastern Conference.
