Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic pulled off his best Bo Nix impression during the Nuggets’ 129-93 win over the Utah Jazz on Friday night.

Right before halftime, the Nuggets had a 54-47 lead. Jazz point guard Collin Sexton made a layup with four seconds left. Jokic then received the inbound pass, euro-stepped around the defender and drained a 62-foot 3-pointer.

Jokic made the full-court heave look effortless, as he deftly maneuvered around the Jazz defender and threw the ball, like the Denver Broncos' quarterback, and hit nothing but net.

"It felt really good when it left my hand. So, I mean, I shot, I missed, basically probably in this season 30 of (those full-court heaves). I made two. That’s a good percentage I think, right? 10 percent maybe less. I think it’s good percentage from the full-court shots," Jokic said after the game. 

The Nuggets seized the momentum from Jokic’s full-court heave, as they dominated the second half, and their 36-point was their biggest of the season. With the win, the Nuggets completed their regular-season sweep over the Jazz.
