Nikola Jokić had a career night this Friday against the struggling New York Knicks. He just went berserk, scoring 40 points, grabbing 9 rebounds and dishing 5 assists. Not yet impressed? He made 17/23 FG's and 2/3 from downtown. during the previous games, he was flirting with triple doubles, vs Milwaukee(20 points/13rebounds/11assists they won, 121-117), January 16 vs Orland Magic, which they won(30 points), Dec. 19(near triple double with 27 points, 15 rebounds and 9 assists) on a win against Dallas(117-107), December 28 vs Minnesota on a 105-103 win(16 points, 11 assits and 8 rebounds.)
Look at his stats from last year and this year(after the win against New York):
How good was he is how he is better like, he was the steal of the 2014 NBA draft, not playing until the next season. And, and he helped Serbia get the Silver medal during the 2016 Olympics. But he's not part of the Western conference All-stars. Just a shame people outside of Serbia never voted for him. He deserves a spot! I wouldn't be surprised if he will raise the Larry O'Brien trophy in the years to come.
