In addition to the defeat against Utah (122-110) in Denver, there is concern for the condition of Nikola Jokic, who came out at half-time in the match against the Jazz, for a bruised knee.
Coach Mike Malone thinks to reassure his fans who, in the post game, says that for the MVP of last season it is nothing serious. During the break Malone talked to the player to find out how he was and, from there he has little time, he made the decision not to let him return:
“I saw that Nikola was warming up, so I went there to find out how he was and he said, ‘He’s a little weak.’ I told him he wouldn’t come back, it was a decision that only me had to make: he’s too important a player for this team, we can’t let him play when he’s not feeling his best and risk worsening the situation. Let’s see how it is in the next few hours and days: I think it’s nothing serious, but as a precaution we keep it under control ”.
