Aaron Gordon was the hero for the Nuggets, grabbing a Nikola Jokic heave at the buzzer and finishing with a dunk as time expired. After the game, Jokic said he wanted to take the last shot and didn't want to the Clippers any time.

While Nikola Jokic posted 36 points, 21 rebounds and eight assists, it wasn't the Serbian superstar who won the game for the Nuggets at the last second. Instead, it was Aaron Gordon, though David Adelman didn't draw it up that way. Jokic got a last-second shot to win the game, which happened to be an airball.
