Nikola Jokic led the Denver Nuggets to a thrilling 127-125 overtime win over the Toronto Raptors on Monday night, scoring 40 points and securing 10 rebounds. The victory came after Denver clawed back from a 15-point deficit, marking their first win in three games this season.
Canadian star Jamal Murray made a critical reverse layup with less than a second left in regulation, sending the game into overtime. Jokic then scored seven points in the extra period, helping the Nuggets maintain control as the Raptors missed potential game-tying attempts in the final moments.
