Meeting in the tent in between Oklahoma City Thunder and the Denver Nuggets on Friday came to a peak in the fourth quarter when Lou Dort and Nikola Jokic got into a physical fight.

Dort was ejected for a foul, while Jokic and Jaylin Williams, who got involved in the altercation, were called for technical fouls. The Thunder beat the Nuggets in overtime, 127-121.

A day later, Williams shared a series of pictures from the competition on Instagram, including one of him being held back by trainers. He captioned the post with, “Yeah, okay.”

He was quickly mocked by Nuggets fans.

“Imagine Nikola Jokic running to Instagram to post after an altercation at a game. he said @NuggetsLead, adding a screenshot of Williams’ post.

“Jokić would never do it. So corny,” echoed @JB_DenverSports.

“It’s the biggest moment of his career” he stated @DDelgado38697.

“Jokić by knockout in the first round,” wrote @ashebabes, adding a picture of Jokic that quickly became a meme.

“They’re just a bunch of wannabe guys, that Thunder team,” published @cammart32.

“And everyone’s reposting it, really so corny,” observed @Ballknover240.

Williams had a strong game against the Nuggets, scoring 12 points on 4-of-7 shooting, including two 3-pointers, five rebounds, three assists and one block in 26 minutes off the bench. He also helped limit Jokic to 9-of-25 shooting.

The three-time MVP finished with 23 points, 17 rebounds and 14 assists.

Thunder, who are looking to defend their titlethey won their first two faceoffs against the Nuggets this season. They will meet again on March 9 and April 10.

After their bitter feud, a bitter rivalry could form, especially when Oklahoma City knocked Denver out in the second round of the playoffs last season.
