Jokic Establishing Himself As Player Nuggets Can Build Around

/ CBS Colorado

DENVER (CBS4) - Young Nuggets center Nikola Jokic is quickly becoming a superstar.

Jokic is averaging 29 points and 12 boards during a run of four straight double-doubles.

Jokic is only 21, and has been getting more playing time lately as center Jusuf Nurkic's time on the court has been decreasing.

Denver is reportedly shopping Nurkic with the trade deadline approaching.
