Nikola Jokic has posted triple-doubles in his first two games of the season.

Jokic will try to push his streak to three straight games when the Denver Nuggets tip off against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday night in Minneapolis.

Denver is coming off a 133-111 home win over the Phoenix Suns on Saturday night. Jokic finished with 14 points, 14 rebounds and 15 assists and took only eight shots from the field. He preferred to put the spotlight on his teammates before they traveled north to face Minnesota.

For example, Jokic said, Aaron Gordon can do things on the court that amaze even him. Gordon scored 50 points in the season opener and followed up with 17 points in the second game, including a 360-degree dunk that made highlight reels from coast to coast.
