NBA: Dallas Mavericks at Denver Nuggets - Source: Imagn

Three-time MVP Nikola Jokic could be on his way to a fourth MVP award if he continues to sustain his level of play. In addition to averaging a career-high 29.7 points per game through the first ten games of the year, Jokic is also averaging 13.7 rebounds per game, a career-high 11.7 assists per game, and 1.7 steals per game.

With discourse surrounding Jokic at an all-time high, one NBA fan decided to create a highlight video of Jokic wreaking havoc on the NBA. The compilation video shows Jokic both going at, and going back and forth with a number of high-profile NBA players.

From his infamous shove of Marcus Morris to a heated face-to-face with Devin Booker, the 40-second video, which has racked up 27M views since Nov. 11, has gone viral online.

NBA fans were quick to react to the footage.

Jokic looks to lead Nuggets to sixth straight win in Friday's NBA Cup game against New Orleans

After starting the season with a two-game skid, the Nuggets showed signs of life as they rallied with a two-game win streak to bring their record to 2-2. While the team began the month of November with a loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, they have since responded in a big way.

Since Nov. 2, Jokic has led the Nuggets to five straight wins, leading the team in rebounds and assists in all five games. In addition, he led the team in scoring in four of those five games, with Russell Westbrook erupting for 29 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Nov. 6.

Given that he's nearly averaging career highs across the board, Jokic is once again the favorite to win the NBA MVP award. A fourth MVP on his resume would put Jokic in elite company alongside Wilt Chamberlain and LeBron James, who both have four MVP awards.

In addition, a fourth win would put him ahead of Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Moses Malone. While there is still plenty of basketball left to play this season, Jokic's Hall of Fame worthy resume could have another MVP added to it if he keeps up this production.
