Nikola Jokic had 34 points, 19 rebounds, and 7 assists and Jamal Murray scored 35 points but the performances of the duo just weren't enough to topple the Timberwolves.
With the early exit, Jokic was asked about his plans to play for Serbia in the upcoming 2024 Paris Olympics. But the three-time MVP was non-committal with his response.
“I don’t know, my friend, we will see,” Jokic said. “I need to think about it.”

Murray, on the other hand, confirmed that he would be representing Canada in the Summer Games.
