Triple-double show
Westbrook and Jokic shine in Nuggets victory
Two outstanding individual performances spurred the Denver Nuggets on to a 124-105 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Friday. Nikola Jokic had 35 points, 15 assists and twelve rebounds, while Russell Westbrook contributed 25 points, eleven rebounds and ten assists.
Jokic achieved the 145th triple-double of his career, while Westbrook holds the NBA record with 202. It was the second time this season that the two have both achieved a triple-double in the same game.
Donation for forest fire relief
Meanwhile, the NBA has canceled two games originally scheduled for Saturday due to the wildfires raging in the Los Angeles area. The Lakers would have faced the San Antonio Spurs and the Clippers would have hosted the Charlotte Hornets. At the same time, the NBA and the players' union NBPA announced that they would jointly donate one million US dollars (0.97 million euros) to helpers in California. The money will benefit the American Red Cross, among others.
