The Denver Nuggets got a historic performance from Nikola Jokic in Game 4 vs. the Phoenix Suns, but it was not enough to grab a victory. Jokic finished with 53 points, 11 assists, and 4 rebounds in the losing effort. After the game, Suns star Devin Booker said Jokic can get 50 all he wants, as long as Phoenix gets the win.

"It's a tough matchup," Booker said. "He's either scoring or he's getting his teammates involved, or he's doing both. Every possession try to make it hard on him, make it tough on him. I mean, he can have 50 all he wants as long as we get the win. That's all we're going for."

After dropping Games 1 and 2 of the series, Phoenix has stormed back with two wins at home to tie things up. The two teams will now fly to Denver for Game 5 before heading back to Phoenix for Game 6. Knowing they needed both games at home, the Suns did incredibly well to take care of business and even this series. They did it despite some dominant performances from Nikola Jokic, who went for 53 in Game 4.

Devin Booker and Kevin Durant once again led the way for Phoenix in this one, as their offensive firepower has been too much for Denver over the last two games.
