Jokic contributed 39 points (17-30 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 16 rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block across 41 minutes during Monday's 97-87 victory over the Suns in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Jokic had another dominant performance in Game 2 of the series and vastly outplayed opposing center Deandre Ayton while shining on both ends of the court. After an uncharacteristically inefficient 8-for-29 showing from the field in the Nuggets' first-round-series-clinching win over the Timberwolves last Tuesday, Jokic has converted 51 percent of his field goals through the first two games of the series with Phoenix.
