Nuggets' Nikola Jokic makes NBA history with first-ever 30-20-20 game vs. Suns

Yesterday at 01:53 AM

It’s become commonplace in the NBA for Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic to put up insane stat lines, but he one-upped himself on Friday night.

During a dogfight against the Phoenix Suns in Denver, Jokic became the first player in NBA history to post a stat line with 30 points, 20 rebounds and 20 assists in a single game. He finished the night with 31 points, 21 rebounds and 22 assists while leading the Nuggets to a very important 149-141 win over the Suns in overtime.

Jokic did it all in this one. He lifted the Nuggets to a big lead over the Suns and then threw haymakers at them down the stretch after the came back. Then, after a Kevin Durant 3-pointer forced overtime, Jokic was an unstoppable force as a scorer and as a playmaker as the Nuggets took home the W.

Jokic has put up plenty of stat lines that only Wilt Chamberlain has notched in the history in the NBA, but on Friday night, he put up one that he can claim all for himself.

This story will be updated.
