Three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokic plans to return to the court on Friday for the Denver Nuggets' game against the visiting Los Angeles Clippers, ESPN reported.
Jokic, who officially is listed as questionable for Friday's game, has been sidelined for one month after sustaining a bone bruise in his hyperextended left knee during the Nuggets' 147-123 loss to the host Miami Heat on Dec. 29. The star center limped off the court in discomfort after injuring his knee in the closing seconds of the first half.
Jokic, 30, also is available to play in Sunday's game against the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder and will be eligible for season awards.
Despite missing one month of action, Jokic still leads the NBA with 16 triple-doubles. He is averaging 29.6 points, 12.2 rebounds and 11.0 assists in 32 games (all starts) this season.
