Nikola Jokic Nears 65-Game Cliff After Being Ruled Out vs Nets

Denver ruled Jokic out tonight. With 34 games left, he must appear in 33 to stay eligible. If he misses tomorrow vs Clippers, the margin ends. If he plays Sunday against Oklahoma City, the path requires no further absences. Miss that game, and award eligibility ends, regardless of late-season availability this season per team tracking metrics and schedule math.
