With 5:50 remaining in the quarter, Bogdanovic took a pass on the left wing and went behind the back with a dribble to get by Bones Hyland and a ball fake to freeze Nikola Jokic in the lane before laying the ball in giving the Jazz a 77-71 lead.

Bogdanovic has an efficient 18 points on 8-14 shooting. He has also added three assists and three rebounds on the night.

I bet Nuggets fans think Bojan Bogdanovic is the greatest player in NBA history.
