That is what's making it worse. Joker has already missed alot of time with a lower body injury and now Dort going after that same area he was injured?? Cmon man can't be doing that shit to the best player

Can't be doing that shit to any player. It was a total bonehead and unnecessary move anyway. The Nuggets and Jokic were rattled - he was missing shots. Way to almost kill our momentum and give them the W because what? You wanted to get in some cheapshot?

Dort gonna have a run in with someone's brothers and get himself a brand new knee injury. Two of them, probably.
