No Look to Lyles vs. Over the Head
Fun fact: both of these passes are a remix to an original. Joker threw that wraparound pass against Memphis his rookie season and he threw an over the head pass a week or two prior to throwing this one.

Joker and the King vs. Trap in the Corner
For those who were at Pepsi Center for Jokic’s bucket on LeBron James, that was a special moment. Then again, so was setting an NBA record for fastest triple-double.
