The Denver Nuggets, already missing three starters due to injury, lost star center Nikola Jokić to a left knee hyperextension in the final seconds of a game against the Miami Heat. He will be re-evaluated in four weeks, significantly impacting the Nuggets’ lineup and rotation. Jonas Valančiūnas is expected to step in as the starting center, while Jamal Murray and other role players will need to increase their contributions. The overall team efficiency is likely to decline without Jokić’s offensive presence.
