Nikola Jokic Shares Hilarious Viral Reaction to Getting Ejected

Nikola Jokic is hilarious.

Monday night's game between the Denver Nuggets and Detroit Pistons was an incredibly ugly one for the Nuggets. Despite Nikola Jokic and Michael Malone getting ejected early in the game, the Denver Nuggets found a way to win an incredibly close game against the Detroit Pistons.

After the game, the Nuggets posted a postgame huddle between the coaches and players where Jokic shared a hilarious reaction to getting ejected.

What they say?

"Obviously, Nikola getting kicked out helped us," one coach joked. To which Jokic jokingly replied by saying, "Especially on defense!"

The Nuggets narrowly defeated the Detroit Pistons in a game that they absolutely needed to win. Entering Monday night, the Nuggets had lost two out of the last three games, and losing to the worst team in the league would have been a big loss predicted scheduled wins. It was a fantastic performance by Reggie Jackson, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Aaron Gordon, Michael Porter Jr., and Christian Braun. After struggling last season, Reggie Jackson has been a fantastic surprise since Jamal Murray's injury.

Up next for the Denver Nuggets is a game against the surprising Orlando Magic. It may seem like Orlando is a team that Denver should run through, but they're currently playing good basketball with an 8-5 record and a three-game winning streak.

The Denver Nuggets and Orlando Magic face off at 7:00 p.m. EST on Wednesday.
