The Denver Nuggets overcame the struggles of superstar Nikola Jokić, securing a 113-104 overtime win over the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 3 of their second-round playoff series. The Nuggets outscored Oklahoma City 11-2 in overtime with clutch buckets from Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon.

Nikola Jokic rolled up in the Joker’s suit, then performed like a court jester. But the Nuggets refused to allow his box score to be a punchline. They buoyed Jokic, bought him just enough time until he could have the last laugh at his own expense.
