In the NBA regular season, the Nuggets lost to the Bulls 127-130 at home.

In this game, Jokic made 13 of 27 shots, including 1 of 7 three-pointers and 9 of 12 free throws. He scored 36 points, 18 rebounds, 13 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks, with a plus-minus of +9.

Nuggets reporter Ryan Blackburn talked about Jokic's defensive issues in this game.

"Jokic's defensive performance in this game must be paid attention to. He always shrank in the penalty area, causing every time he defended the outside three-pointer to be half a beat late. This is obviously the opponent's tactical focus. The Bulls players made enough (8-10) three-pointers against him, which was enough for them to win the game."
