Being 45-31 Jokic and the Nuggets aren’t near the top of the Western Conference but Jokic wheeling the Nuggets to 45-31 is arguably more impressive than another candidate leading their teams to the top of their respective conferences.
Jokic is averaging 26.3 PPG, 13.6 RPG, and 8.0 APG which is a near triple-double. His stats speak for themselves in the MVP category, especially when you look at the context. He’s played nearly this whole season missing both Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr., his top two talented teammates. Jokic elevates his teammates to a much higher level than they’re normally playing at, making Jokic as a player more valuable.
