Billy Donovan Sit the player with 3:43 remaining after the guard was added 4 points in 26 minutes of playin a disastrous shooting series of 1s for 14 and 0s for 5 in triples.
“That’s Billy’s decision. He has to put up with it. Do I agree? No”, LaVine spoke enthusiastically that their performance on the track has dropped significantly this season. After a meeting with players and coaches, neither gave in and advocated turning the page. “In that moment, I made that decision. It was mine and I felt it was best for the team.

It’s a tough decision and I’m competitive. I want to play and I told him I think I earned the right to play despite the bad nights… My mentality is that if I’m there I can help the team win I’m saying. i wish i had the chance Then try a few more shots.”
For Donovan, the chaos is over. Not only does he understand the student’s position, but he also believes that his personality and competitiveness deserve the utmost respect. All great players have this feeling,” he said. “The thing I admire most about Zach is that he is a good person in any situation.”

Denver Nuggets announced Nikola Jokic He will miss at least four weeks due to left knee hyperextension.
The Serb is expected to miss all 18 matches in January and his maximum appearances this season could be limited to 64 matches. So Jokic will lose the opportunity to compete for the NBA’s main prizes – MVP and inclusion in the All-NBA, as this requires playing at least 65 games in the regular season.
Theoretically, he could return for the January 31 game against the Brooklyn Nets, which would give Nikola the opportunity to play 65 games before the end of the season, but that scenario is unlikely.
Jokic was injured in the last seconds of the first half of the match against Miami Heat (123:147) and did not return to the field after a long break. Before his injury, he managed to score 21 points, 8 assists and 5 rebounds in just 19 minutes.
Jokic averaged 29.9 points, 12.4 rebounds and 11.1 assists per game this season.
