Jokić`s Nuggets suffer a crushing playoff loss to the Thunder, tying the series at 1-1 with a disappointing performance.

The Denver Nuggets faced a tough defeat against the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 2 of the NBA playoffs, ending with a staggering score of 149-106. This loss ties the series at 1-1, putting pressure on the Nuggets as they look to regain momentum. Nikola Jokić, typically a standout performer, managed only 17 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists, a quiet night by his standards.

Jokić`s night ended prematurely as he fouled out while attempting to set a screen for Jamal Murray. After the game, he emphasized the collective responsibility of the team for the loss, stating the need for improvement and learning from mistakes. Michael Porter Jr. struggled with a shoulder issue, but Jokić noted that injuries cannot be excuses at this critical stage of the playoffs. The Nuggets will need to regroup and strategize effectively to bounce back in the upcoming games.
