Nikola Jokic’s approach against Alex Caruso in Game 7 is drawing criticism as the Nuggets continue to unravel in the fourth quarter.

Jokic has 20 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists so far, but Denver trails by a wide margin. With Caruso shooting 71% and posting a +27, Jokic’s surprising struggles have become a talking point in Denver’s Game 7 disaster.
