It’s kind of funny that ESPN is finally giving Jokic some love, considering they showed clips of our second favorite big man (Jusuf Nurkic) when talking about Jokic’s max contract.
The Nurkic reference was a joke, but what’s not a joke is that before signing that contract Nikola Jokic was still a relatively unknown commodity outside of Denver and basketball pundits.
IT’S TIME TO GIVE THIS MAN SOME LOVE. All he did last year, which also happened to be his first full year starting at his natural center position (Thank you coach Malone), was average 18.
