LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. – Nikola Jokic knew it.
After Jokic scrambled over to Anthony Davis in a last-ditch effort to contest The Brow’s 3-pointer, Denver’s superstar said he could sense the outcome as the ball floated through the air.
“As soon as he shot the ball, he shot it really well,” Jokic said after the Lakers’ 105-103 victory Sunday night. “Like, I kind of felt that it was going in. … Great players make great shots.”
Davis’ devastating 3-pointer crushed the Nuggets’ hopes of yet another dramatic second-half comeback and staked Los Angeles to a 2-0 lead in the Western Conference Finals. Itap the first time in Denver’s last five playoff series that it’s faced a 2-0 deficit heading into a Game 3, which is Tuesday night.
