Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Logs 17 minutes in preseason opener
Jokic posted 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two steals across 17 minutes in Friday's 107-103 preseason loss to the Celtics.
Head coach Mike Malone had already declared Jokic would have a reduced workload during Friday's preseason opener against the Celtics earlier in the week, so it wasn't surprising to see him log just 17 minutes. That said, it was more than enough to fill the stat sheet, and Jokic should remain one of the most productive players in the NBA, both in real life and fantasy, once the regular season begins later this month.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Set to play limited minutes
Coach Mike Malone said Jokic will have a reduced workload during Friday's preseason opener against the Celtics, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.
Malone mentions that he would like to give some playing time to everybody on the roster Friday, so expect Denver's starters to play limited minutes. Jokic will likely continue to receive limited minutes throughout the preseason. However, once the regular season rolls around, Jokic should return to his typical average of around 34 minutes per contest.
