A controversial sequence during the April 26, 2026 matchup between the Denver Nuggets and the Minnesota Timberwolves provoked an angry reaction from Denver center Nikola Jokic, leading to a brief on-court scuffle involving players from both teams.
Television replays showed Jokic expressing frustration immediately after the contested play. Teammates and Timberwolves players quickly converged, and officials stepped in to separate the groups before the situation escalated further. No injuries were reported.
Additional details about the specific call and any potential disciplinary measures had not been released at press time.
