Following the game, Nikola Jokić addressed the media, and his reaction to the news that Denver had achieved its first ten-game winning streak since he joined the team was particularly striking. He was wearing a "Tetrick Racing" t-shirt, a brand associated with renowned American jockey Tim Tetrick.

"I wasn't aware of that, but it's a strong finish to the regular season and great momentum heading into two tough matchups. I hope we can maintain this trend, playing well and securing victories."

"You need to be in the right rhythm"

For Jokić, the most crucial aspect is that the team consistently finds ways to win, regardless of the circumstances.

"We've had some close wins, some dominant ones, I don't know. We've just found ways to win, and that's the most important thing for me."

While securing the third seed in the standings is practically a certainty, the team faces challenging encounters against Oklahoma City and San Antonio.

"Yeah, I don't know if we've looked at it exactly, we just need to play well. All the guys would tell you that; we need to play well and feel good. The league is talented, anyone can beat anyone, so you need to be in the right rhythm."

When asked by reporters if he senses during a game when he's achieved a triple-double, the Serbian star responded in his characteristic, humorous style.

"- Yes, especially when I sit on the bench and see the stats up there, so, yeah," Nikola Jokić concluded.

Recall that the Nuggets pulled away from Memphis after halftime, securing a 136-119 victory and extending their winning streak to ten games—a first in Nikola Jokić's illustrious eleven-year NBA career.

During the Denver Nuggets' current ten-game winning streak, the Serbian center has achieved a performance unprecedented in league history. Over this ten-game stretch, Nikola Jokić has accumulated a total of 252 points, 145 rebounds, and 127 assists.

The Joker needed only three quarters to record his 89th career triple-double. The incredible nature of this statistic is best illustrated by comparing it to the rest of the league. Since the NBA officially began tracking "minute-by-minute" statistics (1997/98 season), Jokić has 30 more triple-doubles than any other player during that period!
