The Nuggets defeated the Pelicans yesterday and will face the Rockets in the next game. After the game, Jokic talked about Shen Jing.

"He is very talented. We are different types of players. He is an outstanding player. You may be able to see some similarities, but I don't want people to say he looks like me as soon as they see him. He is good enough and deserves to write his own story."

Tomorrow's NBA Cup, the Nuggets will challenge the Rockets away from home.
