Nikola Jokic, who retired from the speedboat in the previous game, returned to the Jianghu today and immediately showed his MVP status!
Yokoch scored 17 points, 14 assists, 10 rebounds and 2 intercepts in 8 of 11 shots in the whole game, completing the 12th big three yuan of the season, with a total of 88 times in his career.
More importantly, with 0.2 seconds left in the game, he hit the winning three-point ball at the top of the arc with a backward step to break the deadlock between the two sides, leading the gold block to break through the magic with 119 to 116 breathtaking.
After Yokoch hit the key three-point goal, the voice of “MVP” at home of the Golden Nugget resounded through the sky. The gold nugget also won 6 consecutive wins, leading the Grizzlies by 0.5 game in the western region.
In the first half of the game, Nugget made more than 60% of the shooting percentage and gained a 15-point lead by relying on the smooth attack of multi-point flowering. Seeing that it was easy to pass at home, I didn’t expect that the nugget encountered a powerful counterattack from the Magic at the end of the third quarter, and the gap between the two sides narrowed to only 6 points.
With this momentum of chasing points, Bol Bol didn’t give in to his former boss in the fourth quarter. He scored 9 points alone, which led the Magic to lead the score many times. The two teams also showed a sticky situation, and entangled in the final moment to form a 116-116 draw. The golden nugget avoided entering the extended game with a ground-breaking strike of Yokochi Stone, and won the game with great difficulty.
Aaron Gordon scored 25 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists in 9 of 13 shots, Jamal Murray scored 18 points, 7 assists and 4 rebounds, Michael Porter Jr. scored 16 points, Kentavius Caldwell Pope and Bruce Brown scored 12 points each.
Magic’s Markelle Fultz scored 20 points in 8 of 10 shots, 6 assists, 7 rebounds and 2 intercepts. He had the chance to take advantage of free throws in the final stage of the game to get ahead of the game, but unfortunately, he made 2 free throws and 1 free throw; Franz Wagner had 19 points and 5 rebounds, Paolo Banchero had 18 points and 4 assists, and Baby had 17 points and 6 rebounds.
