Nikola Jokic On His Offense: 'I'm Patient Because I Cannot Really Run Fast'

Nikola Jokic discussed his style on offense following the Denver Nuggets\' 110-101 win over the Los Angeles Clippers in game 2 to tie the series.

Jokic finished the game with 26 points and 18 rebounds.

“I’m patient because I cannot really run fast. That’s my only option,\" said Jokic.

Jokic scored 24 points in the first half, along with four 3-pointers.

Jokic added that playing at his own pace opens up options for his teammates. 

“When I’m playing offense and I have the ball I just look for defensive mistakes. Just me being a little bit slower kind of gives my teammates a chance to back-cut, lob … Just playing in my comfort zone.”
