Jokic and Murray Tie Jordan and Pippen's Playoff Record

Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray once again showcased why they are one of basketball's most formidable duos, leading the Denver Nuggets to a convincing 116-105 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The pair made history, matching Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen's record for the most playoff games where both players record at least 25 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists. The Nuggets stars reached this milestone in their eighth such game, with Jokic delivering a triple-double of 25 points, 13 rebounds, and 11 assists, while Murray contributed 30 points, 7 assists, and 5 rebounds.

The next game is scheduled for Tuesday, where the Timberwolves will aim to even the series before it shifts to Minnesota.
