DALLAS — Nikola Jokic watched from the bench as the final seconds of a deflating 118-107 loss to the Dallas Mavericks ticked away on Tuesday at American Airlines Center.

He also chided some members of the media for their opinions of Plumlee and his value to the team.
Jamal Murray didn't get the start Saturday night—the first time he's come off the bench this season for the Nuggets—but the second-year shooting guard, who's coming into his own as Denver's closer over the past few weeks, did his part in finishing the Dallas Mavericks.
