“Nikola Jokic Stats is Crayo”: Ja Morant Joins NBA Twitter In Losing Their Minds On The Denver Nuggets Star Equaling a 54 Year Wilt Chamberlain Record

Nikola Jokic just dropped the performance of a lifetime. He is only the second player, behind Wilt Chamberlain, to have a 35/25/10 game. Wilt has accomplished this feat seven times in his career. Putting those PlayStation numbers aside, emulating one of Wilt’s records is incredible.

In a win against the Charlotte Hornets, Jokic looked locked in from the start, and until the final whistle, he was scoring. How many points did he score, you ask? 40 points. And in addition, he grabbed 27 rebounds, more than 50% of the Nuggets’ total rebounds.

Like always, he had his teammates involved too, assuring 10 of their shots. Jokic does not play like the archetypal center; he’s an amalgamation of different positions. His push in the second half saw him score 24 points, causing a change in the lead.

He kept Charlotte at bay, preventing a comeback, despite LaMelo Ball’s valiant efforts. This puts them at 18-11, comfortably third in the Western Conference.

Nikola Jokic is ready to enter the best center conversations if he continues to put up these numbers

Nikola Jokic-the reigning MVP. The Serbian horse racer is doing GOAT things, and people are in disbelief. For one, he doesn’t have the build of a center, and he doesn’t play like one either. For ages, people have seen Shaquille O’Neal, Bill Russell, and Hakeem Olajuwon—massive players, chiseled and ready to pummel.

But Jokic breaks all those stereotypes. He plays like a 7-foot guard who is as fast as a moped on skates. It looks like he does all his speeding on the race track because when it comes to basketball, everything is at his own leisurely pace. And he’s destroying defenses with just that.

It may be because the opposition always prepares for quick players; never have they seen European players like Jokic and Doncic take the pace out of the game. They rely on fundamentals and the element of surprise. Jokic has been to one conference final, but he is a regular-season monster.

NBA Twitter thinks so too – because Ja Morant and many others jump on the hype train

Fans cannot stop raving about his performance tonight – one because they haven’t seen anything like this in their lifetime. Anyone who saw Chamberlain have his last 35/25/10 game in 1968 is well into their retirement age.

It’s incredible to see someone so nonchalantly pull these numbers – Jokic’s pace isn’t frantic like the rest of the league. He’s calm and collected, and it is refreshing to see. In a sport where it is “blink and you miss“, The Joker gives everyone time to see what he’s doing.

4-time All-Star, 4-time All-NBA, and 2-time reigning MVP. Those numbers alone indicate that Jokic is the GOAT center of the next generation. Combine his accomplishments with tonight’s record-breaking performance – He’s flirting with “untouchable” status.
