Denver Nuggets ha defeated to Miami Heat by 4-1 in the NBA Finals 2022-23which ended this Tuesday, and, in this way, has obtained his first championship ring. The Serbian center Nikola Jovicwith an average of 30.2 points, 14 rebounds and 7.2 assists in the five games that the final has lasted, has been key to the victory of his team, and has been chosen Finals MVP of the NBA, in which the new champions, in the final match that has given them the title, have won by 94-89.

After two games in Miami, the third and fourth of the series, in which the Nuggets were far superior, the final returned to its pavilion with a match that could already be definitive for Mike Malone’s team. In this fifth game, the Heat took the lead at the end of the first quarter, and in the second they even reached a ten-point lead, especially since Jokic was very alone in the local attack, since not even Jamal Murray (14 points) or Michael Porter Jr (16) have had their day, but the Denver Nuggets managed to get close to halftime on the scoreboard (44-51).

In the second half, the Miami Heat’s attack, which in these finals has shown a lot of fatigue, has collapsed. The visitors finished the third quarter ahead, 70-71, and in the last quarter, when Denver realized they could be champions, they began to struggle to put points on the scoreboard, and a rush from Miami tightened the match. Then, the unstoppable version of Jokic has returned, with 10 points, to close the match (94-89) and the series for his team, which has achieved the first ring in the franchise’s history.
