Malone took concern with the notion that the Nuggets had been merely opting to relaxation their two greatest gamers.
“I believe that is only a bunch of bulls—,” Malone stated. “I imply, within the final 10 years, Nikola Jokic has performed the second most video games within the NBA. Ten years. And the fellows in that high 10, none of them are superstars.
“So if Nikola will not be taking part in, it isn’t as a result of he is sitting. It isn’t as a result of he wants relaxation. It is as a result of he is damage and he is attempting to play by issues that almost all would not. We’re at a degree proper now the place we’ve to do what’s greatest for not simply Nikola, however for all our guys, as we transfer ahead and attempt to shut out this season.”
