Nikola Jokic (back) ruled out Monday night for Nuggets
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic will not play Monday in the team's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
What It Means:
Jokic was listed questionable earlier in the day for the second leg of the back-to-back set as he deals with low back pain. Now, he has officially been ruled out of action for Monday night's affair. It's going to be a tall task to replicate his production, but Zeke Nnaji and DeAndre Jordan will attempt to do just that.
In 17 games this season, Jokic is averaging 28.8 points, 13.4 rebounds, 8.9 assists and 60.8 FanDuel points.
