Jokić makes NBA history again - first to average a triple-double in a seven-game playoff series

In all the most important categories, Nikola Jokić finished the regular season of the NBA in the top 3, becoming the first center to average a triple-double in the history of the strongest basketball league, and only the third player to do so.

The center of Denver and the Serbian national team is pushing the boundaries of the playoffs, as he is the first in 79 years of NBA history to average a triple-double in a seven-game series.

His Denver eliminated the LA Clippers with a 4:3 victory, and Somborac averages 24 points, 11,6 rebounds and 10,1 assists.

He wasn't at his best this morning, only a double-double of 16 points and 10 rebounds with eight assists, but he almost didn't make it in the final quarter.

Still, the double-double meant that no one in NBA history had ever achieved more in seven games of a playoff series.

He earned three personal fouls in the third-place finish, five in total, and with his team leading by 27 points, there was no need for him to be on the floor.

He shot 50 percent from the field, 45 percent from three during the series with the Clippers.

Jokić is fourth in points in this playoffs, but first in rebounds (81), assists (71), and steals (16).
