Clark’s praise came while previewing a double-header that included Jokic’s Nuggets and their matchup against the Warriors. She noted Jokic’s rare ability to average a triple-double and highlighted how his playmaking makes the game easier for teammates, emphasizing his vision and efficiency beyond scoring.
Jokic’s already-strong season continued on Sunday, as he posted 25 points, 15 rebounds, and eight assists, narrowly missing a fifth consecutive triple-double. Denver extended its win streak to six games, maintaining the fourth seed in the Western Conference.
Clark, who shares representation with Jokic at Excel Sports Management, also underscored his all-around impact, pointing out how he often contributes with assists even when not taking a heavy shooting load. Her remarks reinforced Jokic’s reputation as a premier playmaker and scorer.
As the Nuggets pursue continued success, Jokic is positioned to average a triple-double for a second straight season, a feat that would join a short list of all-time seasons. Denver will look to continue its winning form in upcoming road games before hosting a high-profile matchup later in the week.
The interaction between Clark and Jokic highlights the growing cross-sport appreciation for Jokic’s all-around game and reinforces his status as a centerpiece for the Nuggets as they press for playoff positioning.
