Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokić suffered a hyperextended left knee during Monday's loss to the Miami Heat, ruling him out for at least four weeks. The injury, which occurred after accidental contact with a teammate, avoids a season-ending tear but jeopardizes his MVP candidacy due to the NBA's 65-game threshold. This development clears the path for Oklahoma City Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to secure a second consecutive MVP award.
