, and watched from afar as the Nuggets entered a 2-2 tie with Phoenix.
We’ll get to Jokic in a second.

Caldwell-Pope’s had a larger impact on their current run than maybe he’s been given credit for. At every timeout, he implored teammates to fight defensively, and any time a referee was within earshot, there was Caldwell-Pope working them.
