The duel of MVP favorites Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid lived up to its billing in a 114-110 win for the Denver Nuggets over the Philadelphia 76ers.
Jokic, 27, finished with 22 points, 13 rebounds, eight assists, two blocks, and two steals. While the reigning MVP finished a pair of assists away from his 76th career triple-double, it was still his passing that wowed Monday night.
