Right before halftime, the Nuggets had a 54-47 lead. Jazz point guard Collin Sexton made a layup with four seconds left. Jokic then received the inbound pass, euro-stepped around the defender and drained a 62-foot 3-pointer.

"It felt really good when it left my hand. So, I mean, I shot, I missed, basically probably in this season 30 of (those full-court heaves). I made two. That's a good percentage I think, right? 10 percent maybe less. I think it's good percentage from the full-court shots," Jokic said after the game. 

The Nuggets seized the momentum from Jokic's full-court heave, as they dominated the second half, and their 36-point was their biggest of the season. With the win, the Nuggets completed their regular-season sweep over the Jazz.

Jokic had 27 points, 14 rebounds, six assists and four steals in the win.
