to win even without Kawhi Leonard, and Norman Powell stepping up with 35 points is a testament to their depth.

Coach Evans: Jokic’s talent is undeniable.He’s a walking triple-double threat night in and night out. I think his brilliance is becoming more recognized, but he often flies under the radar because his game is so fundamentally sound, almost effortless.
