In Denver's round one win over the Los Angeles Clippers, Jokic led the way as well. He averaged 24 points per game to go along with 11.6 rebounds, 10.1 assists, and 2.3 steals, while shooting 50% from the floor and 45.2% from 3-point range.

Cameras caught Jokic drawing up a play on the sidelines two days after Malone's exit, and then, on Monday, captured a very fired-up Joker getting his team going during Game 1 of the playoff series vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder.
