Another triple-double for Jokic

MANILA, Philippines —  Nikola Jokic had 37 points, 18 rebounds and 15 assists, Michael Porter Jr. hit a go-ahead floater with 6.5 seconds left and the host Denver Nuggets overcame a big night from Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving to beat Dallas 122-120 on Sunday night.

Jokic notched his sixth triple-double of the season, and it took him less than three quarters to do so.

Irving finished with a season-high 43 points on 17-for-22 shooting from the field. He made six of his eight 3-point attempts.

Jamal Murray scored 18 points, Porter added 17 and Peyton Watson finished with 16 for Denver, which swept a five-game homestand. Christian Braun scored 14 points, and Julian Strawther contributed 12.
