Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Posts another triple-double
Jokic finished with 21 points (8-13 FG, 5-5 FT), 13 rebounds, 10 assists and one steal across 34 minutes in Wednesday's 104-91 win over the Pelicans.
Jokic ended with his second triple-double of the 2026-27 campaign Wednesday. However, he wasn't perfect, amassing seven turnovers to bring his total to 16 on the year. The multi-time MVP is now averaging 22.0 points, 10.5 rebounds, 9.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.8 blocks over 37.1 minutes per contest in his first four regular-season appearances, though he has shot an inefficient 21.7 percent from deep.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Excellent start to season
Jokic logged 19 points (8-18 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, 11 assists, three blocks and one steal across 35 minutes during Monday's 134-114 loss to the Warriors.
Jokic led the team in assists Monday, setting a season high in dimes in the process. The perennial MVP candidate has logged a pair of double-doubles through three games on the young campaign, posting a full stat line each time out so far.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Vintage performance in win
Jokic closed Saturday's 141-135 overtime victory over New Orleans with 35 points (12-23 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 8-8 FT), 15 rebounds, 10 assists, three blocks and two steals over 44 minutes.
Jokic turned things around after a slow start to the season, at least by his lofty standards, recording his first triple-double of the campaign. For good measure, he added four blocks, an unexpected yet welcome surprise for fantasy managers. There isn't much left to say when it comes to what Jokic can do on a basketball court. Those who invested in him with the first or second pick in drafts should feel at ease with their decision.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Modest performance in loss
Jokic contributed 13 points (5-19 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-4 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 35 minutes during Thursday's 96-84 loss to the Thunder.
Jokic started the season with a mediocre performance, at least by his lofty standards. He still managed to chip in across all major categories, providing managers with a sense of reassurance. Up against the might of the Thunder, it's not a total surprise to see Jokic struggling, much like Victor Wembanyama did on opening night. Cristicism aside, another elite fantasy season seems inevitable, likely ending with a top-three finish in all formats.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Fills stat sheet Friday
Jokic posted 17 points (7-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 0-0 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 31 minutes in Friday's 121-106 preseason win over the Lakers.
Jokic delivered another highly efficient performance, missing just one of his eight field-goal attempts while leading the Nuggets in assists and ranking second in rebounds. The star center looks ready to roll ahead of the regular-season opener against the Thunder on Thursday, Oct. 22. Jokic remains the premier fantasy basketball option heading into the regular season, with his combination of scoring, rebounding and assists providing an exceptionally high floor.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Settles for five points in loss
Jokic logged five points (1-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and a steal over 17 minutes during Wednesday's 122-110 preseason loss to the Clippers.
Jokic had a quiet scoring night in a limited run, though he still led Denver in assists. It was a sharp drop from Monday's win over the Bulls, when he posted 22 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. The three-time MVP hasn't topped 26 minutes in four preseason appearances, so expect his workload to stay light until the games count.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Triple-doubles in preseason win
Jokic recorded 22 points (8-12, 1-2 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 11 rebounds, 10 assists and a block in 26 minutes during Sunday's 133-128 preseason win over the Bulls.
Denver elected to play their starters into the second half for the first time this preseason, leading to Jokic producing a highly efficient triple-double while playing three quarters. The star big man led the game in rebounds and assists. Jokic is coming off six straight seasons in which he finished top two in MVP voting, and he seems poised for another dominant campaign.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Dishes seven assists
Jokic recorded three points (1-1 FG, 1-2 FT), seven assists, three rebounds, one steal and a block in 14 minutes during Sunday's 109-97 preseason loss to the Jazz.
Jokic played facilitator almost exclusively Sunday, totaling a game-high seven assists while only recording one official field-goal attempt. Despite not looking for his shot, Jokic added to his highlight tape with a crafty behind-the-back pass along the baseline, which resulted in a Cameron Johnson three-pointer. The star big man is expected to retain a limited role throughout the preseason to preserve his health for the regular season.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: To sign extension next offseason
Jokic reiterated Monday that he intends to sign a new contract with the Nuggets next offseason, Brendan Vogt of TheDNVR.com reports.
"I'm going to sign next year, if they want me," Jokic said, adding that his decision to hold off on an extension this summer was purely business. The three-time MVP passed on a four-year extension worth $278 million and can become eligible for a five-year deal worth approximately $360 million next summer. Jokic has repeatedly expressed his desire to spend the remainder of his career in Denver, so his decision to delay a new deal appears financially motivated rather than an indication that he's considering leaving the Nuggets.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Battling illness with Serbia
Jokic (illness) registered eight points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-7 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal in 23 minutes during Serbia's 76-64 win over Italy in Monday's FIBA World Cup qualifier.
Jokic has been playing through an illness for the Serbian national team, per Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com, so he hasn't been looking like his usual dominant self on the court. The perennial MVP candidate figures to be well past whatever's ailing him come time for training camp with the Nuggets later this fall, and he's paralleled by only Victor Wembanyama in discussions for the No. 1 overall pick in fantasy circles.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Modest line in win
Jokic recorded six points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 13 rebounds, six assists and three steals in 23 minutes during Serbia's 102-73 win over Iceland in Friday's FIBA World Cup qualifier.
Jokic attempted only seven shots but impacted the game in his usual fashion as a rebounder and facilitator. The 31-year-old averaged a triple-double for the second consecutive regular season in 2025-26, posting 27.7 points, 12.9 rebounds and 10.7 assists per game while finishing second in MVP voting. Denver has reshaped the supporting cast around him this offseason, but Jokic remains the unquestioned centerpiece of the offense and should once again be among the first players selected in virtually every fantasy format in 2026-27.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Nuggets add around him
The Nuggets added another playmaker with the signing of DeMar DeRozan on Friday to pair alongside Jokic to help handle the offensive pressure in 2026-27.
Jokic averaged a triple-double for the second straight season in 2025-26, though it's possible the addition of DeRozan slightly cuts into his ball-handling responsibilities. Regardless, the presence of DeRozan, a six-time All-Star, as opposed to the more defensive-minded Peyton Watson, should aid Jokic's efficiency as well as his ability to find open looks all around the court in 2026-27.
