With the nonchalance of someone out for a neighborhood amble,Winning Exchange Nikola Jokic ripped out the hearts of the Golden State Warriors with the buzzer beater of the year.

Granted, we are but a few days into 2024. But just after Victor Wembanyama and Giannis Antetokonmpo gave us a finale for the ages, the Denver Nuggets and Golden State showed the league how it's done.

How’s this for an ending?

Jokic's 39-foot heave gave the Nuggets (25-11) the road win over the Warriors (16-18), 130-127. Jokic messed around and nearly got a triple-double, scoring 34 points while adding in 10 assists and nine rebounds. Of course, three of those points will be talked about more than the others.

For the Warriors, they skid to 18 losses on the season despite 30 points on 11-for-23 shooting from Steph Curry. They blew an 18-point lead with under seven minutes to play, per TNT.

The Nuggets play the Pistons on Friday, which doesn’t really seem fair.
