Nikola Jokic is expected to return to the Denver Nuggets lineup during the team's upcoming 5-game homestand, according to Michael Malone.
"We're just trying to get home and kind of see where he's at," said Malone. "It'd be great to have a chance to get our starting five some run together, because we haven't had a lot of opportunity to do that this season."
Jokic has missed four straight games due to left ankle impingement.
The Nuggets are 2-2 without Jokic.
