WASHINGTON (AP) — Nikola Jokic scored a career-high 56 points and had little to celebrate afterward.
The Denver star's stat line also included 16 rebounds and eight assists. But his efforts were wasted in a 122-113 loss Saturday night to a Washington team that had lost 16 games in a row.
Denver is now 11-10 and hasn’t won back-to-back games in nearly a month.
Now the Nuggets have lost two in a row.
If the season ended now they’d be a play-in team.
