Winge: Nikola Jokić is officially out again tonight vs. Memphis (personal reasons)

  1. I can’t believe Calvin Booth allowed Jokic to have sex with his wife. Is he wasting the prime Jokic era? /s

  2. I’m ok with Jokic resting, but this team needs to get serious tonight….. Jamal needs to realize his role as a leader, and same with Mike……

    When Julian is out-scoring you, you have a problem.

  3. Pregnancy can be extremely complicated even with the best of care. Hoping his wife is all right and everything goes smoothly.

  4. Honestly Jokic resting is the best thing for the team cuz they need to figure out certain things without always relying on him to bail them out. And then when he’s back we’ll be stronger for that

  5. Yeah it’s gonna come down to how much effort Jamal and Mike bring. Both need to bring it; Mike put in work against NO, but neither showed up in the last game though Jamal seemed to get serious in the 4th quarter against Memphis.

    The weird part with Jamal is that in the last two games (and really all season) he looks great at the very beginning, but then he doesn’t sustain it like he is trying to save himself for the 4th.

  6. Family is important and he should take all the time he needs but I kind of feel like we deserve a definitive timeline for his return. This team isn’t worth watching without Jokic playing.

  7. Honestly team needs to learn to operate without him. Jokic should rest until they win a game without him.

  8. Just check out for the season Jok. Let’s win the Cooper Flagg sweepstakes and get you a real No. 2 option.

  9. By all accounts it just looks like they didn’t want to fly him out to fly him back. Plus assuming the baby hasn’t arrived yet, he doesn’t want it to happen while he’s away, since it’s obviously a lot harder to get across the country to be at his wife’s side than it is to get across town. He’ll be good to go Friday and we’ll need him to be to snap our losing streak.

  10. They probably just told him to come back for our next home game and maximize his time with family

  11. I’m not worried, Jokic is just taking things into his own hands. 
    Booth and the front office won’t surround him with other talent, so he’s making his own team to play with. 

  12. I honestly hope Jokic is out till they get a win without him. I hate to be a downer, but I just can’t understand how Jamal is not embarassed that when he is missing, the team is playing kind of fine, but when Jokic is missing, they are the worst team in the NBA. That’s not the mentality I thought Murray is okay having.
