Winner's Lounge: Takeaways from another Nikola Jokic triple-double in Game 5 vs. the Suns

Adam Mares, Dev Johnson and Eric Wedum break down the Nuggets' Game 5 win over the Suns where Nikola Jokic recorded another triple-double to pass Wilt Chamberlain in career playoff triple-doubles and Denver was able to limit Devin Booker for the first time all series. The fellas discuss Michael Porter Jr.'s Porter Quarter, Bruce Brown's contributions off the bench, Jamal Murray's night, if this defense can hold up for the rest of the series, and more.
