The Denver Nuggets have started the 2023-2024 NBA Season with four straight wins.
If their early season play is any indication, they could be well on their way to another dominant year in the Western Conference.
Nikola Jokic picked up right where he left off as one of the most complete players in the NBA.
He is a triple-double machine, and as Bleacher Report has recently pointed out, Jokic just tied LeBron James for the fourth-most triple-doubles in a career.

His latest performance was a 27-point, 10-rebound, and 11-assist game against the Utah Jazz.
Many around the league describe Jokic as unstoppable due to his abilities in these three areas.
He is one of the most unique players in NBA history, being able to score at will while being an elite passer.
Being mentioned in the same breath as James is another indication of how good Jokic has been to this point in his career.
The Nuggets have several other players who can be role players alongside Jokic, but his value to this team cannot be understated.
With him at the helm, the Nuggets have a chance to beat any team that crosses their path, either in the regular or postseason.
The Nuggets are currently the betting favorites to win the Western Conference again this year, and their early play has given fans confidence that they will make another title run.
Knowing how Jokic has played so far this year, he will likely be a frontrunner to win league MVP, so long as his triple-doubles continue.
