Joki has a shot at surpassing his career-high of 29 triple-doubles in a season.
Jokic now has back-to-back triple-doubles since returning from a one-game absence with an elbow injury. The 29-year-old center is still the top ranked player in all of fantasy. The Nuggets have three games next week, starting with the 76ers on Tuesday.
Jokic and Gordon were probable on the initial injury report, so this was the expected outcome for both players. The former, who played Friday's win over the Heat with a shooting sleeve on his right arm, will remain in his usual starting center role. As for Gordon, he's come off the bench in his first few games back from his second calf strain of the season, and that should remain the case for a while longer. Russell Westbrook has played well as Gordon's replacement in the starting lineup.
Jokic (elbow) is available for Sunday's game against the Magic.
Jokic and Gordon played in Friday's win over the Heat, with the latter coming off the bench again. They should occupy the same roles on Sunday, with Russell Westbrook remaining a starter until Gordon is cleared of any restrictions to his playing time.
