After going off for a career-high 61-point explosion on Tuesday in a double-overtime loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, Nikola Jokic was unable to suit up on Wednesday against the San Antonio Spurs.

It was a brushstroke of brilliance on a painting crafted hundreds of times before. Nikola Jokic pump-faked from the top of the key, coaxing Milwaukee Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma’s right foot a step too high. Two dribbles came to get past Kuzma, and a left-to-right spin to shed him, setting up the threat of a hook.

The visiting Minnesota Timberwolves overcame a 61-point triple-double from Nikola Jokic to defeat the Denver Nuggets in double overtime.
