Nikola Jokic has accomplished many things during his eight-year NBA career, but he has never been on the right side of a playoff series sweep.
That can change on Sunday, as Jokic and the Nuggets are one win away from advancing to the Western Conference Semifinals after getting out to a 3-0 series lead over the Timberwolves.
In Denver's Game 3 win, Jokic filled the stat sheet as he normally does, finishing with 20 points, 12 assists and 11 rebounds. For the series, he's averaging 20.0 points, 11.3 rebounds and 9.0 assists despite dealing with some foul trouble.
Here is the latest news on Jokic's status for Game 4.
