Nikola Jokić posted 22 points, 17 assists and 14 rebounds to record his 182nd regular-season triple-double, moving past Oscar Robertson into second place on the NBA career list as Denver beat Chicago 136-120. It was his 19th triple-double of the season and his second in two games. He now trails only Russell Westbrook. Coach David Adelman highlighted how rare 17 assists from a center is, while Jamal Murray predicted Jokić will push the record far higher.

Jokic delivered 21 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists in Denver’s 122-88 rout of New Orleans, matching the NBA record for four consecutive triple-doubles to start a season. He now trails only Robertson and Westbrook on the all-time list with 168 total. Denver’s dominance stemmed from high-ball reversals and Jokic’s early paint reads. He logged just 28 minutes before resting the fourth quarter as the Nuggets’ third-period 24-0 run sealed it. Jokic can break the record Friday versus Portland in the NBA Cup opener.
