Suns make right despite Jokic Show

class=”sc-3778e872-0 cKDKQr”>

1/4
Nikola Jokic scores 53 points against the Suns and still loses.

Kevin Durant and Devin Booker each scored 36 points for the hosts in a 129:124 home win to lead their colors to the important equalizer in the quarter-finals. Superstar Nikola Jokic shines with the Denver Nuggets with 53 points and 11 rebounds. This makes the Serbian the first center with 50 points and 10 rebounds in a playoff game.

A scene shortly before half-time caused discussions. After a scramble on the sidelines, Jokic elbows Phenox Suns owner Mat Ishbia. This then goes to ground theatrically, Jokic taking a technical foul.

The series is now back in Denver with the score tied at 2-2, with both teams having won all of their home games so far.

Philly drama

The Philadelphia 76ers also tied 2-2 against the Boston Celtics. The team around James Harden and the brand new MVP Joel Embiid win a dramatic home game with 116:115 after extra time. Before that, Philly gave up a 16-point lead in the last quarter and he’s lucky the Celtics didn’t capitalize on their chances for victory by the end.

Harden has 42 points and scores the deciding basket with his sixth three of the game. Embiid has 34 points. In Game 5, Boston is home again. (SDA/bjl)
