Denver just losing all the 50-50 balls vs the Mavs team that’s built to hustle without their stars (not that their stars don’t hustle they just know how they have to win today).
Murray’s probably gotta sit, but MPJ’s 1/7 from 3. Jokic not playing well either. – 4:41 PM

More on this storyline
Vinny Benedetto: Aaron Gordon takes another step forward. He’s listed as questionable for Sunday’s game in Dallas with the right calf strain. Jamal Murray is also questionable with left knee inflammation. Nikola Jokic is probable with the illness. Cancar, Holmes, Hall and Jones are out. -via Bluesky / January 11, 2025
Westbrook’s playmaking, however, has been and remains elite. More importantly, Jokić being so dominant has provided space and opportunity for Westbrook to make plays for himself and others, especially in the half court. Westbrook still being a prime-level playmaker but also able to make those plays from a secondary spot on the floor has given the Denver offense a significant boost. “He’s special because of how dynamic he is,” Jokić said of Westbrook. “He’s able to push the pace and get others involved. You can see how guys run the lanes when he has the ball in transition, because they know if they get open, the ball is going to find them.” -via New York Times / January 11, 2025
Vinny Benedetto: Nikola Jokic on his illness: “It was everything – head, nose, my chest, a little bit my throat. My body felt weak, so it was really weird. … I felt a little bit more tired. Second half was much better than the first half. First half, I almost died.” -via Twitter @VBenedetto / January 11, 2025
