The three-time MVP carried the Denver Nuggets to a stunning Game 1 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Joker celebrated by showing up at a local OKC bar.

While Jokic may have had the best overall performance, the Nuggets actually clinched the victory thanks to a clutch Aaron Gordon three. After Oklahoma City's Chet Holmgren missed a free throw with 9.5 seconds to put the Thunder up two, Christian Braun grabbed the rebound and threw it up the court to Russell Westbrook.

Aaron Gordon's three-pointer lifted the Nuggets in Game 1 against the Thunder, and Nikola Jokic had plenty of nice things to say about Gordon.
