"It's something that you're probably going to look at after you finish your career," said Jokic, who has nine triple-doubles this season. "Right now, you don't even think about it. But it's a great thing. It's really nice."
"You see it with his work ethic," said Murray, who had 19 points, "His touches continue to amaze me. He does everything on the court with a great attitude and has a will to win. What else?"
Jokic passed Johnson in the fourth quarter, picking up his 10th assist on a pass to Michael Porter Jr., who dropped a 3-pointer from the wing with 3:37 left.
Coach Michael Malone was pleased to learn about Jokic's mark, but he quickly turned his focus back on a team looking for its identity. "We just got our butts kicked," Malone said. "Obviously, I love Nikola, and I feel very fortunate to coach a player with his talent."
