Nikola Jokić already has three triple-doubles in Denver's first eight games: 35-15-10 and 21-13-10 against New Orleans, then 32-10-11 on 13-of-19 shooting in a 128-109 win over Toronto. He followed with 19 points, 13 rebounds and 8 assists as the Nuggets beat Indiana 114-102 in Mexico City on Saturday, Denver's fourth win in five games. He is averaging 22.9 points, 10.1 rebounds and 9.1 assists. Now comes the bill for the trip. Jokić is questionable for Monday's game in Houston with a right elbow sprain, and Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon, Christian Braun, Cameron Johnson and DeMar DeRozan are questionable too after travel delays getting out of Mexico City. Julian Strawther is out with a left knee sprain.
