Nikola Jokić leads the NBA in end-of-quarter heaves this season, with two successful shots from beyond half court, including a 62-footer with impressive footwork against the Jazz.

Additionally, Jokić reached 16,000 career points, becoming the fastest player in NBA history to reach 16,000 points, 8,000 rebounds, and 5,000 assists in just 739 games, surpassing the previous record held by Larry Bird.
