Whether it was his signature mid-range jump shot, deadly three-point shooting, or his uncanny ability to finish around the basket, Jokić made it look effortless. His 48-point performance was not just about scoring, though.

The two-time MVP also contributed in other facets of the game, adding rebounds, assists, and even a few steals to his stat line.
