It only took two years, 153 regular season games, six triple-doubles, and a few offseason home workout videos, but Nuggets’ big man Nikola Jokic to finally getting some notoriety and acknowledgment around the league.
On Tuesday, Nuggets general manager Tim Connelly, in an appearance on The Vic Lombardi Show on Altitude Radio, said that prospective free agents took notice of Jokic’s sophomore season where the 22-year-old averaged 16.7 points, 9.8 rebounds, 4.9 assists and shot 57.8 percent from the field, and are telling their agents that they want to team up with the Serbian.
