Report: Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic set to return vs. Clippers

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.
