Nikola Jokic is an exceptionally skilled center that also happens to be a triple-double machine. On Saturday, Jokic finished with 31 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists. This marked his seventh triple-double of the season, and at this rate, he'll continue to do so throughout the season.

This season, Jokic averages 18.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 6.8 assists. This is a slight dip from his 20.1 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 7.3 assists last season, but he is still putting up solid numbers.

Jokic is a special player who is just as good of a passer as he is a post player. What makes Jokic even more special is that he was the 41st pick of the 2014 draft. The Nuggets did their homework with Jokic, and it has paid off tremendously.

He, along with a few other big men, could potentially dominate the next decade.
