Video: Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic lobbies with match officials about Giannis Antetokounmpo timewasting in win vs Milwaukee Bucks

Denver Nuggets star center Nikola Jokic was seen pressuring referees during the game against the Milwaukee Bucks to make Giannis Antetokounmpo shoot faster.

In the match where the Nuggets came out on top with a score of 113-107 at the Ball Arena on Sunday, the 28-year-old could be seen lobbying the match officials about something.

On social media, it has been claimed that Jokic lobbied with match officials into calling a 10-second free throw violation of Giannis Antetokounmpo but that can not be verified from any official source.

The Nuggets came out on top, which was their second win under the new coach Doc Rivers and their fifth in the last six matches, largely because of the third quarter where they outscored the opposition with a score of 26-19.

For the winning team, point guard Jamal Murray was the star performer as he ended up registering 35 points to go with two rebounds and five assists. Jokic also had a good game for the Nuggets as he registered 25 points to go with 16 rebounds and 12 assists, both highest in the match. Out of those 16 rebounds, 15 were of the defensive nature.

For the losing team, power forward Antetokounmpo was the star performer as he ended up registering 29 points to go with 12 rebounds and four assists.
