    Nuggets last 5 possessions of regulation:
    — Jokic 3-pointers
    — Jokic assist
    — Jokic assist
    — Jokic mid-range
    — Jokic free throw
    But what a basket to cap off an incredible performance by Ant-Man!

    Jokic literally did everything but miss that free throw. Had he made it, it’s was going to be a sweep 🧹
