The Denver Nuggets are currently 6-13 in games Nikola Jokic plays that qualify as “Clutch” games and 20-3 in games that don’t get to that point. That’s extremely abnormal for a Nuggets squad that has excelled in clutch moments as often as Denver has this season. Ryan Blackburn discusses what’s happening with the Nuggets late in games, where they must improve, and why they will probably be better in the playoffs on the latest episode of Late Night Nuggets.
