Jokić’s response after historic game brought smiles to many

“We started the match well, but then our focus dropped a bit. The second half was better, our concentration returned, and we finished the way we wanted to and won.” A Serbian player was asked about his collaboration with Aaron Gordon, a teammate who he can find from any position. “I hope he’s there, sometimes I don’t know if he’s there, I hope, but most of the time he ends up being there.

I’m happy that he reads me.” Denver will play their next game against the same opponent on the night between Sunday and Monday. “It’s tough to play against the same team twice, but I hope our fans will bring us the energy we need for another victory.”
